01Services
When the spreadsheets stop keeping up.
For companies of 20 to 250 people on QuickBooks or NetSuite, a CRM and Microsoft 365, reporting usually means someone exporting, pasting and hoping it matches.
“Month-end takes two weeks.”
“Nobody trusts the numbers.”
“I can’t see margin by job.”
“Whoever built our reports left.”
Fabric warehouse design
A Fabric warehouse and lakehouse that pull every source together on a schedule, and check each table before anyone sees it.

06About
Joshua Biondo
Founder and principal consultant
“Finance analyst turned data architect. I still think in P&L terms; I just build the engines now.”
Joshua has spent his career building reporting for healthcare, real estate finance and architecture firms: Fabric lakehouses, the semantic models on top of them, and the apps teams use to check their own numbers. He started Hemline Analytics to bring that setup to companies too small to hire a data team.
