See the shape of your business.
Analytics Contour helps mid-size companies in the US, UK and Europe turn the data in their ERP, CRM and finance systems into numbers leaders trust and dashboards people open every Monday.
One partner from raw data to the decision.
Four practices that work together, so the dashboard your CFO opens rests on a model your data team can maintain.
This is what our output looks like.
A working sample, not a screenshot. Switch the region or the period and every number recalculates.
Monthly revenue vs plan ($K)
Gross margin by product line
| Top accounts | Revenue | vs LY |
|---|
Every figure is generated for demonstration. In an engagement this view sits on your ERP and CRM, refreshes nightly and belongs to your team after handover.
Work that moved a number.
Senior analytics talent, a different cost equation.
Clients in the UK and US typically pay a fraction of what comparable senior analytics talent costs in their home market. The people who scope your engagement are the people who build it.
Senior-led, not senior-sold
No hand-off from a pitch team to a junior bench. The experienced team you meet is on your project every week.
Working hours that overlap yours
Our day covers the full UK morning and the US East Coast morning, with stand-ups and reviews in your business hours.
Spend that goes further
The budget for one contractor at home funds a scoped platform build or a dashboard programme. Fixed-price options make the saving predictable.
Illustrative index for the same scope and seniority. Actual pricing depends on scope and engagement model and is set out in every proposal.
Practical guides from the work.
From data strategy to decisions people act on.
Engage us for one practice or all four. Every engagement ends with something your team can run without us.
Six phases, each with a milestone you sign off.
The same structure appears in our statement of work, so nothing changes between the pitch and the contract.

Time and material
Billed against actual effort. Suits evolving scope or work alongside your in-house data team.
Dedicated team
A named analytics team working as an extension of yours, for sustained roadmaps.
Managed analytics
We run your ongoing reporting: refreshes, KPI maintenance, new dashboards and month-end packs, against agreed service levels.
Built on the platforms you already own.
We work inside your existing stack and licences. Pick the platform you run, or the team that needs better answers.

Where data technology meets commercial finance.
Analytics Contour is a data and analytics consultancy serving mid-size companies across the US, UK and Europe. Our team brings decades of combined experience in data technology and commercial finance.
Two disciplines in every engagement.
Analytics sits between technology and the commercial side of a business, so our team is built from both. You get two views on every project: what the data can do, and what sales, finance and operations will act on.
Technology and analytics
Decades of building data platforms, BI programmes and analytics teams inside enterprise organisations: warehousing, data engineering, reporting and advanced analytics, from architecture to adoption.
Brings architecture, delivery discipline and dashboards people keep using.
Sales, finance and commercial
Decades of corporate finance partnering with sales and commercial teams: revenue planning, pricing and margin analysis, sales performance reviews, deal economics and management reporting.
Brings KPIs that match how revenue is actually won, and reports commercial leaders act on the same day.
Contour lines make a landscape readable at a glance. We do that for your data.
Business-first analytics
We start with the decisions you need to make, then choose the technology.
End-to-end analytics
From extracting data out of your source systems to dashboards, forecasting and AI-assisted analytics, with one team.
Flexible engagement
Fixed price, time and material, dedicated team or managed analytics, at a fraction of UK and US market rates.
Scalable architecture
Designed to grow with your data and your business, not rebuilt in two years.
Outcome-oriented delivery
Milestones, deliverables and measurable acceptance criteria in every statement of work.
Decades of experience, both sides
Deep analytics delivery combined with commercial finance leadership.
One accountable name on each side.
Risks surface in week two, not week twelve.
