A better process starts with the work you already do.A NOTE FROM JAV
What do you open first? What do you copy, check, chase, or fix? That’s where our conversation starts.
I’m Jav. I help teams connect their data, build useful reports and apps, and take the repetition out of everyday work. You work directly with me, from the first question through the handover.
You don’t need to arrive with a technical brief.
Just bring the thing that’s getting in the way.
01 / THE WORK
One report or a process across several systems. We’ll agree on what’s useful, what’s realistic, and where to start.
The numbers live in five different places.
Bring files, databases, and business systems together, with checks and scheduled updates you can depend on.
Dataflows / Azure Data Factory / Microsoft FabricTwo reports. Two different answers.
Agree on what the numbers mean. Build Power BI reports and data models that help your team see what needs attention.
Power BI / Data modeling / Business reportingWho’s got that approval now?
Route requests, follow up on approvals, and update the right records without another chain of emails.
Power Automate / Approvals / NotificationsWe’ve outgrown our shared spreadsheet.
Build an app for submitting requests, managing related records, and seeing what happens next.
Canvas apps / Model-driven Power Apps / DataverseCan I just ask the report a question?
Prepare the data and definitions for supported Copilot questions and summaries. Check the answers against your numbers.
Conversational reporting / Microsoft CopilotWhat might happen next quarter?
Explore trends, forecasting, and what-if questions. First, check whether your data can support a useful answer.
Advanced analytics / Data science / Model evaluationEach custom project is scoped and quoted separately. Microsoft licensing, access, and data readiness are checked before we start. AI answers still need review.
WHAT THIS LOOKS LIKE AT WORK
Illustrative starting points. We shape the actual work around your team.
BUSINESS OPERATIONS
Agree on the numbers, connect the right sources and build a Power BI report people can use. Start with one file, or scope a pipeline for several systems.
Power BI reportingNONPROFITS & PROGRAM TEAMS
Bring activity and budget records into a consistent view. Agree definitions, access and reporting periods before building charts.
Connecting your dataCITIES, AGENCIES & CONTRACTORS
Plan an intake app with a clear status, an owner and an approval path. Check the environment, records requirements and permissions first.
Power Apps for everyday work02 / A SMALLER FIRST STEP
Have an Excel or CSV file and need a Power BI dashboard your team can actually use? The reporting starter gives that work a defined scope.
For connected pipelines, apps, automation, AI reporting, or advanced analytics, tell me about your project. We’ll agree on a separate quote.
Here’s what’s included
We agree on the details before starting. Software licenses, major data cleanup, extra files, and ongoing support cost separately.
03 / WORKING TOGETHER
Show me how the work happens today and where it gets stuck. We’ll decide on the first useful outcome.
You know the scope, price, and delivery plan before we start. We check the work against your real process and numbers.
We test the agreed solution together, walk through how it works, and hand it over with practical training.
Something already built, but not quite working? Slow reports, unreliable refreshes, awkward apps, and tangled flows are welcome too.

A FEW THINGS YOU MIGHT WONDER
Businesses of all sizes, nonprofits, government teams, and contractors are welcome. We can discuss sales and operations reporting, budgets and program reporting, project tracking, approvals, or connected data and apps. Each project starts with your goals, systems, and requirements.
Yes. We can plan pipelines that connect sources such as SQL, SharePoint, Dataverse, files, cloud apps, and APIs. We review the available connectors, data quality, access permissions, and update frequency before agreeing on the work.
One Power BI dashboard from one existing Excel or CSV source, up to five agreed key numbers, two rounds of changes, and team training. Data updates are included where supported. Pipelines across multiple systems, apps, automation, conversational reporting, and advanced analytics are quoted separately.
It means asking a question such as ‘How did costs change this quarter?’ in everyday language. We prepare the data and business definitions, check which Copilot features your environment supports, and review answers against the source data. AI-generated answers still need checking.
Software licenses, cloud capacity, and usage charges are separate. Copilot requires an eligible Microsoft environment and administrator settings; a Power BI Pro license alone is not enough. We confirm the requirements before proposing the work.
Tell me which systems you use and what you want to improve. We agree on the first useful outcome, required access, price, and delivery plan. Training and handover are included as agreed in your project scope.
LET’S MAKE WORK A LITTLE EASIER
Tell me what happens today and what you’d like to change. I’ll reply by email to talk through a practical next step.
