Data Infrastructure That Drives UK Board Decisions
Snowflake, BigQuery, dbt and BI stacks engineered to consolidate your data, automate reporting and surface metrics your CEO actually trusts.
UK companies are drowning in dashboards and starving for trusted data. Every SaaS platform has its own analytics, every team has built its own spreadsheet truth, and the numbers disagree depending on who you ask. Board meetings turn into data-reconciliation arguments instead of strategic discussions.
Buraq builds UK modern data stacks that consolidate fragmented sources into a trusted warehouse, model the data with dbt, surface it through BI tools your team already uses, and govern it for UK GDPR and FCA reporting expectations.
What teams in United Kingdom are up against
Multiple departments reporting different numbers for the same KPI.
Manual Excel exports consuming hours of analyst time every week.
Data engineering bottleneck — every new dashboard requires an engineer.
UK GDPR data subject requests requiring weeks of manual work across multiple systems.
Cost of cloud data warehouse climbing because nobody owns query optimisation.

Outcomes for United Kingdom teams
One source of truth
Warehouse consolidation, semantic layer and governed metrics so the same KPI returns the same number across every team and tool.
UK data residency where required
Snowflake, BigQuery or AWS warehouses deployed in UK regions for clients requiring UK residency.
Self-service that doesn't break trust
dbt models and governed semantic layer (Cube, dbt Semantic Layer, Looker LookML) so business users explore data without inventing new metric definitions.
Warehouse cost under control
Query optimisation, materialisation strategy, clustering and tiered storage so your Snowflake or BigQuery bill stops growing faster than your data.
Built for the UK modern data stack reality
The UK modern data stack has consolidated around the same patterns as the U.S.: Snowflake or BigQuery, Fivetran or Airbyte, dbt, semantic layer, Looker, Hex, Sigma, Mode or Tableau. We work fluently across this stack and pick the right components for your scale and team.
Where pre-built connectors don't exist, we build custom ingestion. Where dbt models need optimisation, we refactor for cost and performance. Where dashboards proliferate without governance, we consolidate around a semantic layer.
Aligned to UK board and regulatory cycles
UK companies report to boards quarterly, to investors monthly and to executives weekly. FCA-regulated firms have additional regulatory reporting obligations. Each cycle has its own data needs, audience and tolerance for ambiguity. We design data infrastructure that supports all without manual reconciliation.
For pre-IPO and public companies, we layer in financial reporting controls — change management on key metric definitions, audit trails on data transformations and segregation of duties on production data flows — so analytics survives external audit scrutiny.
