Sometimes (just) the answer is not enough. You need on-going access to data products and reports. Or maybe you need to transform the data into business insights for people who shy away from the numbers themselves. Or even to collect data in innovative and robust forms.
We will work with your team to understand your business requirement. We will build robust analytics engines. And then we will transform it all into visual, layered reports (or streamed data feeds, if that’s more to your needs).
What we offer
Analytics apps and dashboards
Access your business insights (or input data) where and when you need it through scalable, visual front ends.
Algorithm development
You have the data and the reporting layer and need a model or algorithm to transform it into a prediction or a report feed. We can prototype, test, refine and embed the analytics layer in your system. We will ensure you have all the technical reports and support you need to get the most out of it.
Data products
Our data expertise combines with our statistical knowledge to safely access, mash, re-weight and clean data products to feed your reporting and analysis systems.
Libraries and scripts
You have the data, the reporting layer but you need models, tools or custom analytics that you can embed in your own environment. Our knowledge of the full analytics stack means we can provide just the custom tool you need.
Why us?
We are more than a reseller of reporting software. Our team has the breadth and depth to deliver your product to the level you need. We have developed algorithms to be embedded within our client’s data environments. For other clients we have delivered full analytics and reporting solutions. We will work to understand your needs and deliver to them. You won’t be sold a million dollar solution to a thousand dollar problem.
Our commitment to agile development means we will prototype concepts, layouts, methods and results every step of the way. We don’t believe in taking six months to build a requirements document. We believe in delivering testable modules/concepts and staged deliverables so you remain in control of the business outcomes.

Case studies | Symbolix - Making your data work harder
To support our statistical survey design work with PTV, we developed an R algorithm that combines public transport timetables, spatial transport network data and statistical sampling rules to automate the process of allocating shifts for survey field data collectors.
