What I do

Helping Organisations Succeed with Microsoft Fabric

I provide specialist Microsoft Fabric consulting designed to give you clarity, confidence, and momentum. Whether you’re just beginning your Fabric journey or already running production workloads, I help you build a platform that is secure, scalable, high-performing, and aligned to your business goals.

Below are my core engagement offerings.


Architecture Reviews

A comprehensive, end-to-end review of your current Fabric estate.
I assess your lakehouses, pipelines, dataflows, semantic models, security setup, and workspace design, then provide a clear roadmap showing exactly where to improve and how to get there.
Outcome: A future-proof, high-performing Fabric foundation.


Performance Tuning

Slow reports, failing pipelines, or rising compute costs?
I identify bottlenecks across the entire Fabric stack: Spark, SQL, pipelines, dataflows, and Power BI, and apply proven tuning approaches to improve speed, reliability, and cost-efficiency.
Outcome: Faster workloads and a more efficient platform.


Deployment Best-Practice Assessments

Ensure your Dev/Test/Prod model supports rapid delivery without compromising quality.
I review your CI/CD approach, environment strategy, release processes, and governance controls to align them to real-world best practice.
Outcome: Smoother releases, fewer issues, and proper operational discipline.


Fabric Workspace Setup & Governance Frameworks

Get your workspaces structured correctly from day one.
I design governance frameworks covering identity, permissions, naming standards, security, catalogue organisation, lakehouse structures, and lifecycle management.
Outcome: A clean, organised, controlled Fabric environment.


Data Pipeline Audits

A deep review of your data pipelines, whether built with Spark, Data Factory, Dataflows, or a blend of tools.
I evaluate reliability, maintainability, performance, and design, then provide practical recommendations that reduce failures and simplify operations.
Outcome: Stronger, faster, more maintainable data pipelines.


Training Workshops

Practical, real-world Fabric training tailored to your team.
Sessions are hands-on and grounded in real experience across engineering, analytics, governance, and architecture.
Outcome: Confident teams who understand both the “how” and the “why” of Fabric.


Executive Guidance on Adopting Fabric

Clear, strategic advice for leadership teams evaluating or scaling Fabric.
I help you understand the business case, costs, risks, skills, and roadmap — all in straightforward language.
Outcome: Confident decision-making backed by expert insight.
