Based locally and serving businesses across Merseyside. I help SMEs fix Excel sprawl, automate reporting, and build dashboards that teams actually use.
Wirral businesses face the same data challenges as larger organisations—messy spreadsheets, manual month-end processes, and reports that no one trusts. The difference is, most local consultancies don't service SMEs, and enterprise solutions come with enterprise price tags.
Digital Adaption fills that gap. I'm based in the Wirral and I specialise in practical Power BI solutions for SMEs across manufacturing, retail, professional services, and the public sector. No long-term contracts, no dependency on external support—just clean data models and dashboards that work.
If any of these sound familiar, you're not alone—and they're all fixable.
Every department has their own spreadsheets. Version control is impossible. Nobody knows which numbers are current. Month-end becomes a manual consolidation nightmare.
Someone spends hours every week copying and pasting data from multiple systems into reports. By the time it's done, the data is already stale. There's no time for analysis—just data wrangling.
Sales report one figure, finance reports another. Operations uses a different definition of "on-time delivery." Leadership can't agree on basic metrics because there's no single source of truth.
You've got Power BI licences, maybe even a few dashboards. But they're slow, confusing, or nobody knows how to use them. The potential is there—but the implementation isn't.
Four ways to engage—depending on where you are and what you need.
I review your existing setup, identify what's working and what isn't, and provide a clear roadmap with quick wins. Typically 1–2 days, fixed fee.
From scratch to production: data modelling, DAX measures, visual design, testing, and documentation. Most projects delivered in 2–6 weeks.
Slow dashboards, wrong figures, broken time intelligence—I diagnose the root cause and fix it properly. No workarounds, just clean data models.
Ad-hoc help when you need it. Add new measures, optimise performance, train team members. Pay for what you use—no retainers required.

I've been working with data and analytics for over 7 years, with a Master's degree in Digital Transformation and IT Strategy. More importantly, I've delivered real results for businesses across the Wirral and Merseyside region.
My goal isn't to sell you a long-term contract. It's to fix your data problems and give your team the skills to maintain what we build together.
Common questions from Wirral businesses about Power BI and working together.
Yes. I'm based in the Wirral and regularly work on-site with clients across Birkenhead, Wallasey, Heswall, West Kirby, and the wider Merseyside region. I also support clients remotely across the UK—so location isn't a barrier.
Absolutely. Many of my engagements start with "we've got dashboards but they're not right." Common fixes include correcting fiscal year calculations, optimising slow-loading reports, and fixing data model relationships. I also provide documentation so you understand what changed.
I specialise in SMEs—from small businesses with one person managing spreadsheets to mid-size organisations with established finance teams. If you're drowning in data but not big enough for an in-house Power BI developer, we're likely a good fit.
I can work with sample or anonymised data for most of the build process. For final testing and integration, I'll need access to your actual data—but this is always handled securely, and I'm happy to work through your IT team or follow your security protocols.
Most projects are delivered in 2–6 weeks. Simple dashboards (single data source, clear requirements) can be faster. Complex solutions (multiple systems, custom fiscal calendars, heavy data transformation) take longer. I always provide a timeline upfront—and I stick to it.
Every project includes documentation and a handover session. I explain the data model, walk through key measures, and show your team how to extend and maintain the dashboards. The goal is capability transfer, not dependency. Optional follow-up training is also available.
I've written practical guides on common Power BI challenges. No signup required—just detailed walkthroughs you can apply to your own reports.
Handle fiscal calendars that don't align with calendar years. Includes date table setup, time intelligence, and YTD comparisons.
Stop months appearing alphabetically (April, August, December...). Learn the proper sorting pattern for chronological order.
Year-to-date calculations that respect fiscal periods. Includes workaround examples for when built-in functions fail.
