How We Engage
A fixed scope. A fixed fee. A proven sequence.
Every engagement follows the same four phases. You know what happens next, what it costs, and when it finishes — before migration work begins.
The Process
Four phases. One accountable team.
Understand your environment before anything moves.
We connect to your Tableau environment and run a full inventory — workbooks, data sources, calculated fields, LOD expressions, permissions, and refresh schedules. You receive a complexity score per asset and a written migration plan. The assessment is free.
Fixed fee, confirmed in writing.
Based on audit results, we define the migration scope — which assets migrate, deployment mode, validation criteria, and timeline. You receive a single fixed-fee quote. No hourly billing. No surprise change orders. Work does not begin until you approve the scope and fee.
Automated conversion with architect oversight.
Our conversion engine translates Tableau assets to Power BI format. Complex table calculations, custom SQL, and edge cases flagged during audit are handled by a dedicated migration architect — not a rotating offshore team. Your Tableau environment stays live throughout.
Parity verified. Documentation delivered.
Every migrated report passes visual QA and data reconciliation against source data. You receive a written sign-off report, deployment documentation, and a structured handoff to your team. Cutover happens only after validation passes.
Engagement Model
Fixed scope. Confirmed in writing.
Every engagement is scoped to dashboard count, asset complexity, and deployment mode — not by hours logged. Scope and fee are confirmed during Phase 2, before any billable work begins.
- One scope covers audit tooling, conversion, validation, and architect time
- Scope changes require written approval — never silent overruns
- No per-seat or hourly billing structures
Deployment Impact
Where you deploy affects scope.
All three deployment modes use the same platform. Scope reflects the operational complexity of each environment.
Cloud
QueryNorth-hosted infrastructure. Fastest setup. Baseline scope.
On-Premises
Deployed inside your network. Additional scope for environment setup, access provisioning, and client-side infrastructure coordination.
Air-Gapped
Fully isolated deployment. Highest complexity — physical delivery, offline tooling transfer, and extended validation cycles. Required for classified and high-security environments.
Timeline
Typical ranges — not promises.
Actual timelines depend on asset count, complexity scores from audit, and deployment mode. We provide a written estimate during your assessment — these ranges reflect what we typically see.
Timelines include all four phases. Parallel Tableau operation continues until validated cutover.
