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.

St Albans 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

St Albans hosts a dense population of mid-sized professional services and technology firms serving London clients, which makes utilisation, realisation and pipeline reporting the common requirement. These organisations are usually too small for a capacity SKU and are frequently over-licensed when they arrive.

St Albans draws on the London and Hertfordshire markets, giving excellent access to experienced analytics staff.

Economic anchors

  • professional and financial advisory firms serving London clients
  • technology and media businesses
  • a substantial commuter professional population

Where the clients sit

  • St Albans city centre
  • Porters Wood
  • Hatfield business park nearby
  • London Colney

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.
