The data journey isn’t always easy so having the right people to help navigate this journey is important in delivering success. We help mid to large sized enterprises make better use of their data to drive business improvement. We combine business and technical thinking in one team – designing the right architecture, then delivering and supporting it across cloud platforms, data engineering, governance, AI-readiness, BI & reporting, AI-insights and automation. We believe that focus and commitment is the best way we can bring expertise and value to clients. We’re an end-to-end, Microsoft Data & AI, Snowflake & Databricks partner, with senior teams across Australia, New Zealand and India. We’re an independent consultancy so our advice isn’t tied to any provider. It’s a personalised, boutique approach – we guide as much as we deliver and stay hands-on the whole way through.
Our engagement approach is tailored to the data and analytics readiness and maturity of each client to help ensure success. We recommend an agile, phased delivery approach where business areas are prioritised with end-to-end delivery for the in-scope areas first, followed by other business areas as additional phases. This engagement methodology delivers value fast in the area where there is most need, establishes the foundations for the data and analytics program and develops an understanding of what’s possible across the business.

Our principles and values drive us to deliver the high-quality work that we do for our clients. We’re always looking for a better way and are passionate about five things – Client Relationships, Data & Analytics, Collaboration & Transparency, End-To-End Guidance & Support and Delivering Value Early. These cultural principles shape how we work and are underpinned by our core values.
As a boutique consulting company our size and focus ensure we take a personalised approach, are responsive, get to know your business and take extra care in what we deliver. Our Directors and Principal Consultants are actively involved in each project to help ensure success.
We are end-to-end Microsoft Data & AI, Snowflake and Databricks partners, but our advice is independent. Our data management expertise spans Microsoft Fabric, Azure SQL, Azure Synapse, Snowflake & Databricks for the cloud data platform & Purview for data governance. For the presentation layer, our Power BI services cover user requirements, development, deployment, administration & governance.
Our senior leaders, each with over 15-25+ years’ experience, bring a level of expertise in their fields across data management, analytics and reporting and commercial. We connect business strategy to data strategy and see it through to execution. This combination ensures that your project is in good hands.
BoomData has a proven framework for scoping, designing and delivering data and analytics projects enterprise-wide, with an agile, iterative design and delivery approach, ensuring value is delivered early. We have a detailed scoping approach, a proven framework for cloud data platforms including our unique accelerators and frameworks that automate provisioning & streamline everyday processes, as well as a range of pre-built, best practice analytics templates across business processes and industries that fast tracks implementation and increases user adoption.
While most of our work is either ongoing data & analytics delivery or project work, we can also complement inhouse resource or provide ad-hoc services or support including managed services. We can leverage senior consultants both locally & offshore to suit your budget & wherever you are on your data & analytics journey.
Working with us means we’ll be talking to you regularly about your projects, discussing ideas & suggesting improvements. We’re transparent with all time, activity & billing & are open to feedback.

“BoomData have provided Ricoh Australia with Power BI development and support for the last two years. Their ability to step in to assist with our shortfalls in both resources and skills has been exemplary. They understand the complexities of our business and are able to quickly apply their Power BI skills to produce high quality solutions.”
“We engaged BoomData to provide an end-to-end data & analytics service, including design, architect, build and support of our data & analytics platform from the ground up, including a new Microsoft Azure data warehouse… The data analytics we now access daily helps us to manage the care we provide and react quickly to changes. As a result we have turned around and now are delivering results that are top quartile. We have found working with the BoomData team to be a creative partnership where we valued their technical expertise as well as recommendations. It is easy to get lost on a project or fail to deliver against the original objectives, but the partnership with BoomData kept us on track and helped us exceed our original objectives.”
“The BoomData team provided a full cloud-based Managed Data & Analytics Service based on the Microsoft platforms for the business. We’ve found working with BoomData to be a great experience, they have come in from the start of the journey and evolved the solution to what we required taking the time to understand the business first.”
“We had a fantastic experience with the BoomData team. They helped us develop our first suite of Power BI sales reports and dashboards that have since been distributed across all our offices and TVs. BoomData led us through the initial concept to production, supporting us with data connectivity from our ERP systems (which was a challenge in itself) to a finished product that we can now expand on for other departments and data insights.”
“We’ve been working with BoomData as our data & analytics partner over the last 2 years to transform our data & analytics capability. This involved a review of the legacy environment and then a re-build from scratch, implementing a new Data Warehouse & Power BI reporting solution. Whilst initially focused on Retail, Wholesale & E-commerce Sales & Inventory data, the solution has expanded to include capability for Logistics, Payroll, Accounts Receivable & Accounts Payable….BoomData have played a key role in uplifting our data & analytics capability & managed it in a way that had adjusted with the changing needs of our business.”
