Governance that lets you trust the numbers you report.
We help data, risk, and compliance leaders turn a tangle of spreadsheets, warehouses, and undocumented pipelines into something an auditor — and your own board — can actually rely on.
Most organisations do not have a data problem so much as an ownership problem. Definitions drift between teams, lineage is folklore, and nobody is quite sure which figure is the real one. We were built specifically to fix that: catalogue what exists, assign accountability, and make the rules enforceable rather than aspirational.
We keep the roster small on purpose. Every engagement is led by a senior practitioner who has actually stood up a governance programme inside a regulated business — not a deck-writer who hands the hard part to juniors.
Where we help
Engagements
Data Governance Framework
Policies, a working data dictionary, and a domain-ownership model that people will actually follow — sized to your regulator and your headcount, not a textbook.
Lineage & Quality Controls
End-to-end traceability from source to dashboard, with automated quality checks that flag breaks before they reach a report or a customer.
Privacy & Regulatory Readiness
Mapping personal data, evidencing GDPR and sector controls, and getting your records into a state that survives a real audit rather than a tidy screenshot.
Embedded Governance Lead
A retained senior who chairs your data council, keeps stewardship moving, and holds the line on standards while your own team grows into the role.
How we run it
Method
-
One · Discover
We inventory the systems, the critical data elements, and the people who touch them — then show you, plainly, where definitions conflict and where lineage simply isn't known.
-
Two · Design
Together we agree the ownership model, the policies, and the controls that matter most. We deliberately scope it to what your teams can sustain, not a maximalist target operating model.
-
Three · Operationalise
The framework becomes real: catalogue populated, quality rules live in the pipeline, stewards named, the data council meeting on a cadence your team owns.
-
Four · Hand over
We taper off with training and a few review checkpoints. Success means the programme keeps running cleanly long after our last invoice clears.
