Data and analytics consultancy in Mouscron

We deliver Power BI, Microsoft Fabric and Azure work here remote-first, with on-site workshops at the points where being in the room changes the outcome, and we publish three local analyses rather than claiming an office we do not occupy.

Mouscron analyses

Three local analyses

Each one takes the local sector mix seriously: the metrics that break here, the architecture those industries need, and the regulatory obligations that apply.
Local economy

The local economy

Mouscron sits directly on the French border within the Lille conurbation, so cross-border employment, VAT and movement reporting are routine. Textile and food manufacturers here work to customer scorecards set by large French and Belgian retailers.

Mouscron draws on the Kortrijk and Lille catchments, with French as the working language.

Economic anchors

  • textile and clothing manufacturing
  • food processing and distribution
  • cross-border commerce with France

Where the clients sit

  • the city centre
  • the Mouscron industrial zone
  • the French border corridor
  • the Tourcoing axis

How buying works here

Six to fourteen weeks commercially.

Multilingual and split between local and group decision-making, with a federal structure that multiplies the authorities involved. Brussels adds a layer of organisations procuring under EU institutional rules.

Supplier and contracting information

Who has to say yes

  1. Local sponsor, head of data, IT manager or finance director
  2. Group IT and procurement, often outside Belgium
  3. DPO, for the processing position and the DPA
  4. Ondernemingsraad / conseil d'entreprise, for employee-related reporting
  5. Legal, applying either Belgian law or the group agreement

Have ready

  • KBO / BCE enterprise number and registration extract
  • Attestations for social security (ONSS / RSZ) and tax, routinely requested in public procurement
  • Insurance certificates including professional indemnity
  • Data processing agreement under EU GDPR Article 28
  • Security questionnaire, often the group's standard

Contract language: Dutch in Flanders, French in Wallonia and Brussels, English with international groups. Assume at least two.
