Data and analytics consultancy in Doncaster

Doncaster sits in South Yorkshire, with an economy built on logistics and freight, rail and public transport, and public sector. 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.

Doncaster 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

Doncaster's intermodal logistics and rail engineering base produces movement-event and asset-availability analytics. Rail performance data here follows contractual attribution rules, which cannot be approximated without losing credibility.

Doncaster draws on the Sheffield and Leeds catchments as well as local supply.

Economic anchors

  • a major intermodal rail freight and logistics hub
  • rail engineering and maintenance
  • regional public services

Where the clients sit

  • Doncaster town centre
  • iPort
  • Doncaster Carr
  • Lakeside

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.

Analytics work in Doncaster

A 45-minute technical review with an engineer who knows what logistics and freight and rail and public transport 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.
