About

We help businesses make better decisions with their data.

Precision BI is a business intelligence consultancy based in Wellington, established in 2024. We work with businesses across New Zealand and Australia, mainly within the Microsoft data ecosystem.

Our purpose

Better decisions, built on data you can trust.

We design, build, improve and audit business intelligence and data solutions. Most of our clients are small and medium-sized enterprises; occasionally we take on larger engagements with bigger organisations that need a specialist for a defined piece of work, such as an audit, optimisation or migration.

In practice, our work comes down to three connected aims:

  • Helping businesses get more value from their existing data and BI investments.
  • Building and improving business intelligence solutions that support better decision-making.
  • Making data more accessible, reliable, efficient and useful.

What makes us different

What sets us apart

Commercially focused

Solutions are shaped by your business outcomes and budget, not by technology for its own sake. Every recommendation traces back to a business benefit.

Founder-led

You deal directly with the person designing your solution, from the first conversation through to delivery.

AI-enabled practice

We use AI throughout our own practice. For you, that means faster delivery and consistent quality.

Scoped before we start

Every engagement is scoped, sized and signed off before any work begins, so you know what you are getting.

Visibility through Precision OS

Every engagement is managed in Precision OS, our project system, and its client portal gives you clear visibility of your project.

One point of accountability

When a project needs specialist data engineers, we bring them in and manage them. You still deal with one team.

Precision OS

Every engagement, managed in one place.

Precision OS is our own project management system. Every engagement is curated and managed through it: tasks, deliverables and responsibilities are set up before work starts, and the project overview is signed off there.

Its client portal gives you clear visibility of your project. If your own people are involved, they can be assigned tasks in Precision OS too, so everyone works from the same plan.

Delivery principles

  1. Right-size the solution

    We choose the simplest approach that meets the need, proportionate to your budget.

  2. Scope before starting

    No work begins without a project overview you have signed off.

  3. Build for handover

    We document the work and build your team’s capability, so you can support it after we finish.

  4. Follow good practice

    Star schema modelling, a clean separation of data and reporting layers, version control where practical, and performance testing.
