Data Analytics Consultants

Proven Delivery in High-Stakes, Regulated Environments across the UK

In regulated industries, results matter — not promises. At AB Consultants and Analytics, our senior practitioners have delivered measurable outcomes across complex data programmes where regulatory scrutiny, operational risk and commercial impact are tightly linked.

Across financial services, insurance, telecommunications, pharmaceuticals and energy, we have supported organisations in reducing regulatory exposure, stabilising compliance reporting, modernising legacy data platforms and enabling confident, evidence-based decision-making.

This track record is why organisations trust us with their most critical data initiatives — and why our work delivers lasting improvements in control, assurance and business performance, not short-term fixes.

 

 


Financial Services

Strengthening BCBS239 Risk Data Compliance

Experience within the financial services sector includes supporting a UK Tier 1 domestic bank through a BCBS239 regulatory review, where significant gaps were identified in risk data aggregation and reporting.

This work — delivered independently by a member of the AB Consultants and Analytics leadership team in collaboration with an established consultancy — focused on the first 15 BCBS239 risk metrics and involved the design of governance processes aligned to DAMA principles, the remediation of risk data lineage documentation, and the introduction of practical stewardship practices to strengthen ongoing compliance.

Outcomes achieved:

  • Enhanced audit readiness
  • Improved regulatory alignment
  • Greater confidence in risk data reporting

This first-hand experience underpins the deep regulatory and governance expertise that brought to every financial services engagement — ensuring clients benefit from insight proven in real-world delivery environments.

Data Governance to Critical Communications and Power Infrastructure

A leading UK manufacturer and distributor, was preparing to migrate from legacy systems to a new NetSuite ERP — a high-stakes transition with major implications for operational readiness, supplier tracking, warehouse eAiciency, and marketing visibility.

We were engaged to address critical data challenges ahead of the migration. This included establishing governance foundations by aligning the RACI model and developing Employee Data Retention and Customer & Contact Retention Policies in line with GDPR and best practice. At the same time, product visibility was restored by tabularising website listings via PowerShell, cross-referencing them with finance reports, and identifying which products required correction. To support operational readiness, a warehouse data solution was also designed to improve eAiciency and ensure accurate integration with the new ERP platform.

The impact included:

  • Improved data quality and governance alignment ahead of ERP go-live
  • Restored product visibility for the website and finance reconciliation
  • Better warehouse integration with NetSuite for scalable growth

Auditable Automation and Strategic Insight  

Within the insurance arm of a specialist insurer, there was a growing need for a more effective way to manage reporting, analytics, and governance — particularly around compliance and reinsurance submissions. Manual reconciliations and fragmented processes were consuming significant time and leaving compliance at risk.

This initiative — designed and led independently by a member of the AB Consultants and Analytics leadership team — established a comprehensive data strategy that automated management information and reinsurance reporting, introduced practical solutions for annual compliance audits, and delivered risk and product performance analytics across both commercial and non-commercial lines.

Delivering measurable improvements:

  • Significant reduction in reconciliation workload through automation
  • First fully automated annual compliance audit implemented
  • First fully automated reinsurance reporting solution
  • Broader, actionable analytics to guide strategic and operational decisions

This experience represents the depth of practical, outcome-driven expertise that forms the foundation of AB Consultants and Analytics — demonstrating how structured data management and intelligent automation turn transformation from aspiration into measurable business reality.

BT and EE - Telecommunication

Driving Operational Efficiency Through Innovative Analytics

British Telecom and EE required advanced analytics solutions to optimise network delivery, reduce lifecycle costs, and accelerate the critical 5G rollout.

This work was led independently by a member of the AB Consultants and Analytics leadership team during their tenure within the telecom sector — delivering one of EE's first Radio Access Network (RAN) delivery algorithms and automated audit management systems. The outcome demonstrated how intelligent automation and data-driven design can unlock significant operational efficiency and long-term value.

Delivering measurable impact:

 

  • £250,000+ in lifecycle project savings
  • Streamlined and accelerated audit controls
  • Full tool integration for network decommissioning and lifecycle management

This experience forms part of the foundation on which AB Consultants and Analytics is built — bringing first-hand, enterprise-scale delivery expertise to every engagement.

Be Wiser Insurance - Insurance/Finance Industry​

Powering Decision-Making and Cost-Saving with Business Intelligence

A UK-based insurance provider faced challenges due to the absence of a dedicated Business Intelligence platform, limiting its ability to make data-driven decisions and manage costs effectively.

This project — designed and delivered independently by a member of the AB Consultants and Analytics leadership team — involved architecting a complete AWS QuickSight BI solution, underpinned by scalable ETL pipelines that established a strong foundation for future analytics growth and data-driven strategy.

Delivering measurable results:

  • Over £100,000 in immediate savings by identifying underperforming products and insurers
  • Sustainable, dashboard-led decision-making embedded across the business
  • Consistent, high-quality analytics supporting both commercial and operational functions

“Recognised internally as the most effective BI solution the company had implemented in 25 years since its inception.”

This experience exemplifies how real-world analytics delivery and structured data management can reshape business performance — forming part of the expertise that defines AB Consultants and Analytics today.
