Business Data Engineering.

BDE Data exists because we know how transformational data can be.

BDE Data started by accident.

The founder (Paul) worked as a drilling engineer (deepwater/ frontier/ exploration) for years, developing software for engineering businesses on the side since 2004. Frustrated with the oil industry's inefficient data practices and repetition of costly mistakes, he started a small manufacturing business.

The products and machinery were low-tech, but the business administration was definitely not. All aspects of the business (including accounting, advertising, marketing, production, and the factory floor) were automated and integrated using bespoke systems, such that the entire business was run from a single laptop in about twenty minutes per day.

The system was hugely effective in freeing up time to spend on other projects, which included converting the production management part of the system into an off-the-shelf product: Factory Superstar.

He sold the manufacturing business to focus on data services, focussed ultimately on improving business efficiency and growth.

Now, we are a small and flexible team of engineers and software developers who specialise in making your data usable. Our niche is upstream oil, but our tools and expertise have been used in other industries.

We combine deep domain expertise with software development skills. We're great with data. We understand the problems you face when digitising. We have a track record of solving them.
