The reporting your leadership can actually trust
Femtus builds the data and reporting foundation organisations rely on to decide, and holds no software partnerships to build it with. We work across the full chain: getting data out of source systems, cleaning and structuring it, defining what should be measured, and building the reporting leadership actually uses.
What we actually fix
Most organisations do not have a reporting problem. They have a data problem that shows up as a reporting problem, and it survives every new dashboard.
One version of the truth
Departments that measure the same thing differently cannot be reconciled at board level. We agree the definitions first, then build to them.
Numbers that hold up
Reporting is only as good as the data underneath it. We fix the acquisition and processing layer rather than presenting the problem more attractively.
Decisions, not dashboards
The test of a reporting system is whether leadership acts on it. We design backwards from the decisions that need making.
How we work across the chain
Five stages, one outcome. Most engagements start at whichever stage is broken and extend from there.
Data Acquisition & Preparation
Getting data out of the systems it is trapped in, then cleaning and structuring it so it can be relied on.
- Source System Extraction
- Data Cleaning & Structuring
- Repeatable Data Flows
Analysis & Performance Intelligence
Turning structured data into insight: trend analysis, variance, and the metrics that actually explain performance.
- Data Analysis
- KPI Architecture
- Performance Frameworks
Management Reporting & Decision Support
Financial, operational, and delivery data brought into one view that leadership can act on.
- Executive Reporting
- Single Source of Truth
- Decision Frameworks
Reporting Automation
Replacing manual reporting cycles with automated workflows, including AI where it genuinely reduces effort rather than adding novelty.
- Workflow Automation
- Data Reliability
- Automated Data Handling
Project Controls
Cost, schedule, and delivery oversight for capital projects and programmes, with the reporting that makes it visible.
- Cost & Schedule Visibility
- Earned Value Monitoring
- Delivery Oversight
What has Femtus built?
Three engagements, described by the situation, what we built, and the change it made.
Infrastructure Delivery
Leadership needed executive oversight of cost, progress, and risk across a large-scale infrastructure portfolio. We designed and implemented project controlling systems to support it.
Enterprise Healthcare
Clinical operations teams needed a single view of their fragmented reporting. We built reporting and operational-insight systems that consolidated it into one management view.
C-Suite Intelligence
The board needed operational KPIs connected to financial realities in one place. We built automated management reporting environments for board-level reporting.
Why Organizations Choose Us
We understand the executive challenges that slow down performance and create decision uncertainty.
- Two departments report the same metric and the numbers do not match.
- The monthly reporting cycle consumes days of skilled time.
- Leadership asks a simple question and nobody can answer it quickly.
- Decisions wait on numbers nobody fully trusts.
- A reporting or analytics tool was bought and the underlying problem remains.
- A capital programme needs cost and schedule visibility leadership can rely on.
“A dashboard built on data nobody trusts is a faster way to be unsure.”
Intelligence vs. Reporting
We don't build generic dashboards. We design and build performance intelligence systems that deliver clear, reliable insight.
Generic Dashboards
- ✕Disconnected spreadsheets & isolated tools
- ✕Inconsistent, contradictory metrics
- ✕Lagging indicators & manual delays
- ✕Illusion of control, limited actual visibility
- ✕Advice without follow-through
The Femtus Paradigm
- ✓Unified performance intelligence framework
- ✓Standardized, consistent KPI frameworks
- ✓Automated, reliable reporting workflows
- ✓Clear, decision-ready management insight
- ✓We design and build the systems
We sell no software
Femtus holds no vendor partnerships and takes no licence commissions. That means the recommendation is the product. If your problem is solved in a spreadsheet, we will tell you. If it needs a platform or something built for you, we have no reason to prefer one over another. More than six years of engagements, most of them long-term.
Frequently asked questions
What does Femtus do?
Femtus builds the data and reporting foundation organisations rely on to make decisions. We work across the full chain: getting the data out of source systems, cleaning and structuring it, defining what should be measured, and building the reporting leadership actually uses.
Who is Femtus for?
Femtus works with organisations in the UK, USA, and Europe whose leadership cannot fully trust the numbers they are given: departments that measure the same thing differently, reporting cycles that take days to produce, and decisions that wait on data nobody is confident in.
Which tools and platforms does Femtus work with?
Femtus works across spreadsheets, business intelligence platforms, and purpose-built software, chosen to fit the problem rather than a house preference. We hold no software partnerships and take no licence commissions, so the recommendation is never shaped by what we sell, because we sell no software at all.
How is Femtus different from a business intelligence partner?
A business intelligence partner is paid to set up a platform. Femtus is paid to solve the reporting problem, and has no stake in which platform, if any, that requires. We fix the data underneath first, because a dashboard built on unreliable data fails regardless of which tool shows it.
Where does Femtus operate?
Femtus Solutions Limited is registered in London and serves clients across the United Kingdom, the United States, and Europe. Engagements are senior-led and delivered remotely or on-site, depending on what the engagement requires, with most relationships continuing over multiple years rather than a single project.
Should I solve this internally, hire a software partner, or engage Femtus?
Building internally works when your team already has the time and skills to own it, and many organisations should just do that. A software partner is right when you already know which platform you need and just need it configured. Femtus is worth engaging when the problem is the data underneath, not the platform on top, or when you are not yet sure which platform, if any, is the answer.
How long before an engagement shows results?
Every engagement starts with a defined scope agreed up front, and is structured to produce something usable early rather than requiring a long build before anything is visible. We would rather show you something real early and adjust it than ask you to wait for a finished system before you see any value.
What happens when the engagement ends?
Most Femtus engagements are long-term, and clients own everything that is built: the definitions, the reporting logic, and the documentation behind it. There is no lock-in. If the relationship ends, what was built keeps working, because it was built from the start to be run without us.
