Core Skills

Microsoft technology, data, integration and software delivery skills applied to practical business problems.

Core technology skills A technical skills board showing code, data and reporting blocks.

Overview

Skills chosen for the problem, not for novelty.

Our core skills sit around the Microsoft technology stack: bespoke .NET software, SQL Server, Azure SQL, Dynamics CRM, Dataverse, Power Apps, Power Automate, Power BI and the wider Azure ecosystem. The focus is on choosing technology that fits the workload, the organisation and the long-term support model.

That often means combining custom software, low-code applications, reporting and integration rather than treating each platform as a separate silo. We are comfortable working across business applications, data services, APIs, workflow automation and operational insight.

Our experience includes Azure-backed systems, data migrations, reporting estates, Power Apps and model-driven applications, Power Automate workflows, Dataverse data models and integrations between portals, line-of-business systems and Microsoft cloud services.

We also continue to support established technologies where they remain important to day-to-day operations, including SQL Server Reporting Services, Crystal Reports, Office automation and legacy Microsoft application estates.
