Management information that is technically sound and financially sharp

A good data platform solves a lot, but not every organisation immediately has the time, CFO capacity or BI expertise to turn it into sharp KPIs, reports and management conversations. That is why Datalab and BPO - De Administratie work together: we build the reliable data foundation, while BPO helps finance turn that data into grip, focus and better decisions.

For organisations that want to steer on data, but lack time or expertise

This cooperation is intended for teams that genuinely want to move forward with data, but notice that daily pressure, limited finance capacity or insufficient BI direction slows the process down.

Recognise this?

You want to move forward, but the organisation cannot get to it

Many organisations want to get more value from data, but remain stuck in separate reports, debates about definitions or dashboards that work technically but provide too little direction. Often there is simply too little time to set up a good data and analytics process alongside day-to-day operations.

This becomes especially visible when there is no CFO or controller, finance is overloaded, or BI specialists can build but lack substantive guidance from the business.

Our approach

BPO helps with the business question, Datalab with the insights

BPO looks from the perspective of the business: what does management want to steer on, which figures really matter, and what do those figures say about finance, operations, margin, cash flow or growth?

Datalab translates those questions into reliable data, dashboards, analyses, AI applications and data models. The result is not a collection of separate reports, but management information that helps teams make real choices.

How we work together

Using BPO is optional. We determine together what your organisation needs and deliberately keep the roles clear.

Datalab + BPO - De Administratie

Datalab provides the technical engine: data warehouse, pipelines, data models, dashboards and analytics. BPO - De Administratie brings financial practice: CFO services, controlling, KPI development, budget control and strategic financial management. Together we make sure data is not only available, but also used for better decisions.

"In our cooperation with Datalab, we can make business questions very concrete: which KPIs matter, how do you measure them properly and which insights does management need? Datalab then translates that into dashboards, analyses and data models that genuinely help organisations move forward. That combination has already created a lot of momentum in joint projects."

Veelgestelde vragen

Frequently asked questions about Datalab and BPO

When is BPO - De Administratie relevant?

Especially when your organisation has no CFO or controller, finance is very busy, or a BI specialist needs substantive guidance to define KPIs and reports properly.

When is BPO probably not needed?

If you only need a technical solution and already have enough CFO, controller and BI capacity internally, Datalab can simply carry out the project technically and compactly. The cooperation with BPO is then not necessary.

Who does what in the cooperation?

Datalab is responsible for the data platform, source integration, data models, BI and analytics. BPO helps with CFO and controller expertise, KPI development, budget control, financial interpretation and translating figures into management steering.

Do we always have to work with both parties?

No. BPO is an additional option. We first discuss your situation and then determine whether extra finance capacity adds value.

Can you also improve an existing BI environment?

Yes. Datalab can improve existing datasets, dashboards and data models. If the substantive finance definitions or KPI choices are not yet sharp enough, BPO can think along.

Do you want data and financial steering to work better together?

Schedule a call. We will assess whether you mainly need technical data support, or whether extra CFO and controller capacity through BPO adds value.
