Data and analytics consultancy in Aberdeen

Aberdeen sits in Scotland, with an economy built on energy generation and supply, renewables, and industrial machinery and engineering. 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.

Aberdeen 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

Aberdeen's analytics work is asset-heavy: production data, equipment reliability, well and platform performance, and increasingly offshore wind telemetry as the energy transition reshapes the local base. Operators here are accustomed to engineering rigour, so an architecture that cannot explain its own assumptions does not survive the first review.

The University of Aberdeen and Robert Gordon University supply engineering and data talent shaped by the energy sector.

Economic anchors

  • the centre of UK offshore oil and gas operations
  • a rapidly growing offshore wind and energy transition cluster
  • subsea engineering and services

Where the clients sit

  • Aberdeen city centre
  • Dyce and the airport corridor
  • Altens and Tullos
  • Aberdeen Harbour

How buying works here

Three to eight weeks from first conversation….

Relatively fast and relationship-led, with procurement entering late unless the value is high. Day rates and fixed prices are both normal, and buyers expect them early rather than after three meetings.

Supplier and contracting information

Who has to say yes

  1. Budget holder, usually a finance director, CIO or head of data
  2. IT and information security review, increasingly including a supplier questionnaire
  3. Procurement, for value above the delegated authority threshold
  4. Legal, for the master agreement rather than the statement of work

Have ready

  • Certificate of incorporation and latest filed accounts
  • Professional indemnity, public liability and employer's liability insurance certificates
  • Cyber Essentials or Cyber Essentials Plus, effectively mandatory for public-sector work
  • Data processing agreement under UK GDPR Article 28
  • Completed security questionnaire, often a standard set the client reuses

Contract language: English.

Next step

Analytics work in Aberdeen

A 45-minute technical review with an engineer who knows what energy generation and supply and renewables data looks like. We will tell you what we would build, in what order, and roughly what it costs.

How this usually runs here
A technical call, then a written proposal with a fixed price or a day rate. Procurement joins above roughly £50,000.
