Contact usMost clients start with one and discover they need the others. A dashboard project often reveals the need for cleaner data, which leads to better infrastructure, which makes automation possible. That's by design.
Interactive Power BI dashboards with drill-through navigation, executive-ready formatting, and data models designed to scale. Whether you're tracking workforce metrics across hundreds of employees or monitoring e-commerce performance across multiple platforms, the goal is the same: replace the monthly spreadsheet scramble with a dashboard that refreshes itself and answers questions before they're asked.
SharePoint Lists and Power Automate workflows that replace the manual work nobody should be doing. Client management platforms, project trackers, automated calculations, role-based permissions — structured systems that turn scattered processes into something reliable. This is the work that sits between "we use spreadsheets for everything" and "we need enterprise software," and it's often the most impactful investment a small business can make.
Azure SQL databases built properly from the start. Normalised schemas, cloud hosting, and direct connections to Power BI for live reporting. When your data lives in a proper database instead of a folder full of CSVs, everything downstream gets faster, cleaner, and more trustworthy. Data structures that scale with your business rather than ones you'll need to rebuild in twelve months.
I built Three Blades Data because I lived the frustration firsthand. I spent years in customer service trapped in broken systems. Ancient code-based software that looked like it was made before the turn of the century, manual spreadsheets, pivot tables, time limits that forced us to rush through calls with clients.
The irony was brutal — I was getting glowing reviews from customers while being flagged for talking too long. My team was known as rude and unhelpful, but that wasn't the truth. We cared, we wanted to help. We just had a system that was fighting us every step of the way. I was spending 90% of my time navigating admin chaos and only 10% actually helping people.
One day it hit me: a small investment in better tools would change everything. Client satisfaction would skyrocket, team morale would improve, and the data would finally tell the real story instead of a broken one. That's what I build now — the systems that let good people do their best work.
