What We Do

Six things, and proof of each.

Every capability below links to a project where we did it, for a named client, with a result you can read. If we cannot point at proof, it is not on this page.

Dashboards & Reporting

Numbers your board and your staff can see today, not at month end.

Most organizations already collect what they need. The problem is that getting it into a usable form takes someone three days and a stack of exports, so it happens monthly at best and nobody fully trusts the result. We build the pipeline and the reporting layer underneath, so the number is current, the number is right, and there is exactly one of it.

Often the real work happens before any dashboard exists. Plenty of organizations are sitting on years of records in a system that technically holds everything and practically answers nothing. Modeling that data properly is sometimes the entire project, and it is sometimes the most valuable thing we do.

Power BI, Tableau, Looker Studio, or whatever you already own.

Proof Lewis County went from three to five day budget reporting to live dashboards for staff and the public. Read it

Proof We remodeled a county's existing but unusable HMIS data into an analytics platform that surfaces individual client journeys and program-level insight on homelessness. Read it

Custom Applications

Replace the pile of spreadsheets with one system your team runs the work in.

There is a gap between a spreadsheet that has stopped coping and enterprise software that costs six figures and eighteen months. Almost every organization we meet is stuck in it. We build in that gap: a real relational system, with the fields your work actually has, the automations your process actually needs, and a screen your team can use on a phone in a truck.

Usually Airtable. Live in weeks.

Proof Lewis County Building Codes replaced 24 disconnected spreadsheets with one inspection application. A five-person team now runs fire safety inspections county-wide from one place. Read it

Technology & Security Assessments

An honest read on where you stand and what to fix first.

If you have an IT vendor but no IT director, nobody is sitting on your side of the table. That is the gap this fills.

We assess what you are running, where the real risk sits, what your insurer or your auditor is going to ask about, and what to do in what order. Then we tell you plainly, including the parts you will not enjoy hearing.

Who does this work Conner Biolsi spent nearly six years as IT Director for Lewis County government, where he rebuilt the county's entire infrastructure stack, stood up secure remote work across departments, and strengthened its cybersecurity posture on a public-sector budget with public-sector accountability. He was elected to the board of the New York State Local Government IT Directors Association, coordinating technology across the state's municipalities, school districts, BOCES, community colleges and authorities. He is Certified in Cybersecurity and came out of J.P. Morgan Chase technology before that.

He has read the assessment from your side of the desk. Now he writes them.

Financial Modeling & Forecasting

Scenario planning your leadership team can run themselves.

The financial model that matters most is usually the one nobody will touch: a workbook one person built, that breaks if you change a cell, that cannot answer the question the board just asked. We rebuild those as tools. You change an assumption, you see the consequence, in the meeting.

Capital planning, rate and fee analysis, long-range forecasting, cost-benefit analysis, and the multi-decade models that authorities and utilities are required to defend.

Proof We turned the Development Authority of the North Country's brittle landfill workbook into a 50-year scenario-planning engine its leadership uses together. Read it

Grant & Compliance Reporting

Prove what you brought in and what it did, on the state's schedule.

Grant and compliance reporting is annual, mandatory, and almost always assembled by hand under deadline by someone who has a different day job. We build the system that tracks the commitments, the dollars, and the outcomes year-round, so the report is a query instead of a fire drill. It also makes the case: most organizations are worse at proving their own value than they are at creating it.

Proof We consolidated 30-plus grant-tracking tables into one relational system and built a public dashboard showing that Lewis County's grant office brings home more than $5M a year. Read it

Automation & Integration

Stop entering the same information three times.

Double entry is not a discipline problem, it is a plumbing problem. When your ERP, your scale system, and somebody's Excel file have no way to talk, a person becomes the integration. Same with the work itself: forms that get re-keyed, approvals that live in an email chain, a request that has to be chased through four people before anyone knows where it stands.

We map how the work really happens, remove the person from the middle, and automate the steps that never needed a human. The data moves on its own, and it matches on both ends.

Proof We unified the Lewis County Solid Waste Department's scale system, ERP and Excel records into one Azure data warehouse feeding live internal and public dashboards. Read it

Proof We replaced a county's manual, Adobe-form resolution process with an automated workflow that drafts, files and tracks every submission, giving 30 departments real-time visibility into where their requests stand. Read it

Analytics, automation, and AI are the toolkit, not the pitch.

Underneath all six of those is the same set of tools: analytics and reporting, process automation, and AI where it genuinely earns its keep. We care much less about which one we reach for than about whether the thing we hand you actually gets used.

On AI specifically, our position is simple.

Most "AI" is a chatbot bolted onto a broken process.

The useful version is narrower and more boring: reading documents so nobody re-keys them, triaging requests, surfacing what deserves attention. We will tell you when it fits, and we will tell you when it does not.
