Services

Using open-source technologies, we visualise data, craft dashboards, research websites and analytical software and help you fine-tune your data science infrastructure.

Insights and user experience

We help you creating dashboards or software applications to make your research or science-based outputs more accessible. Gain new insights and make informed decisions with our bespoke design and development services. Our team specialises in turning your spreadsheets, reports and research into intuitive digital solutions.

Are you requiring more targeted and refined dashboards than those typically available with Excel or out-of-the-box tools? We offer fully scripted “code first” dashboard development using R Shiny as core technology, enabling dashboards that are unique to your requirements and connect with your audience in the best possible way.

This approach offers optimal connectivity to your data sources, pipelines and integration of your analytical code written in R or Python.

Using open-source technology means outputs are not dependant on a single vendor but are reproducible and adaptable.

  • New dashboard development or code refactoring
  • Data integration, incl. APIs and data pipelines
  • Responsive multi-device apps
  • Research software
  • Decision-support tools

Manual reports creation can be time-consuming and tedious for you and your staff. We help you transitioning to fully automated reporting, connected to your data sources:

  • Scheduled reporting with Markdown or Quarto
  • Automated distribution into multiple formats, e.g. PDF, HTML or Word
  • Improvements to data pipelines, incl. SQL scripting

Do you already have R or Shiny code available, and you want to extend it or make it accessible to a wider audience. We can assist with:

  • Code clean-ups and modularisation – your code will be easier for you and others to maintain
  • Functional improvements, e.g. custom plots, navigation or interactivity
  • Applying a professional look and feel based on your brand guidelines – use our in-house graphic design team
  • We can train you in maintaining your code!

Our graphic and information designers help you to design your dashboard from scratch, or we can review and help evolve your existing dashboard.

Our designers will make sure your project does not only work but looks great as well. We also offer help with any supporting media for your project. We can theme outputs based on your brand guidelines and create training or promotional materials.

Software-as-a-Service

Our team uses the right tools for the job. We have expertise in a number of technologies. This means we use technology best suited to your requirements and won't force you into a pre-set format. We combine data science and visualisation with full stack development capabilities, so we can help you at every step of your data journey including data collection, integration and database development.

Best of all we can do it all for you through our Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) offering. We help you get the most out of your data and research and provide the support you need – we can do it all for you or we help you build capability over time.

Let us do all the work for you. We develop customised tools such as dashboards, applications and websites for your specific requirements and then host and maintain them for you for a subscription fee. This means minimal involvement for you in the technology and support on standby when you need it.

We offer dedicated hosting, support and maintenance plans for your R Shiny dashboard, data pipeline, website, or reporting solution:

  • Professional-level hosting on AWS or Microsoft Azure (certified engineers)
  • Guaranteed service levels
  • Maintenance includes applying security updates, uptime monitoring and backups
