Step 1
Map the mess
Review the reports, source systems, manual steps, and pain points that are creating confusion.
Fractional data & BI support
Reliable reporting without the full-time hire.
Borrowed BI helps growing teams clean up messy data, automate manual reporting, and build dashboards leadership can actually trust.
Data help that fits your team.
Get senior BI support without adding a permanent role before you are ready. Start with a focused audit, then move into the build work that matters most.
01
Reporting Reality Check
A fixed-scope review of your reports, dashboards, data sources, manual steps, and metric definitions, ending with a clear 30/60/90-day action plan.

Reporting Automation
Replace recurring spreadsheet copy/paste work with cleaner data workflows, repeatable refreshes, and reporting that does not depend on heroics.
View service →Built for teams that have outgrown spreadsheet chaos.
Borrowed BI is a fit when reporting is important, but hiring a full-time senior data engineer or BI lead is not the next right move.
Your dashboards do not match the numbers in someone else’s spreadsheet.
Monthly, board, grant, or leadership reporting still takes too much manual effort.
Your data lives across tools like spreadsheets, CRMs, finance systems, surveys, and databases.
You need clearer KPIs, better documentation, and reporting workflows that hold up over time.
A clear first step.
The first engagement is intentionally small and focused, so you can understand what is broken before committing to a larger build.
Step 2
Find the risk
Identify unreliable metrics, duplicated effort, broken refreshes, unclear ownership, and quick wins.
Step 3
Prioritize the fix
Get a practical roadmap for what to fix first, what to automate, and where better BI will pay off.
What you get from the first engagement.
The Reporting Reality Check gives leadership a practical view of where reporting stands today and what needs to happen next.
Data source inventory
A plain-English map of where key reporting numbers come from and where they break down.
Metric clarity
A review of KPI definitions, mismatched logic, and places where reports are telling different stories.
Actionable roadmap
A prioritized 30/60/90-day plan that can be implemented internally or with Borrowed BI support.
