 In fact, combined with my open-source microETL toolkit I can build you a complete Excel-based automated BI platform. Such a solution might be all the data warehouse a small business requires, or simply a data mart for a department within a larger company, or just a prototype/proof-of-concept delivery for others. Take Excel reporting to the next level via PowerPivot, Excel 2010's free BI for the masses add-in. Read more ...  If you have the specification for a new model or an existing Excel model that you wish to move to PowerPivot, I will quote a fixed price and work to a target delivery date if the price is approved.If you have a reporting requirement requiring further specification, I'll usually proceed with an initial period of consultancy charged at a fixed hourly rate followed by one or more deliverables specified at a fixed price with a delivery date.

Master Datasmith? Well, I could style myself a data analyst/systems integrator/reporting analyst/DBA/business analyst/programmer but I'd end up all /'d out. I hope the term datasmith conveys the craft nature of my work with data, for it is a craft that I'm particularly good at (hence the master adjective) and also take great pride in. Read more ... Gobán Saor My father who came from a long line of stone masons and master builders, told me many of these stories and also used to take me to a magical island in our local bogland that he called the Gobán Saor’s island. (Now better known as the discovery place of the Derrynaflan Chalice ). Continuing in the tradition of freelance craftsman (data mason rather than stone mason) I’ve used gobansaor as my nom de plume in forums, online apps etc. over the years, partially to keep a tradition alive but to be honest usually because I’m sure nobody else will have taken the name already  |
