The Data Fluency MOT
Where are you with data?
Most organisations don’t have a data problem. They have a data clarity problem.
The dashboards exist. The reports go to the board. The submissions get made. But somewhere between the data and the decisions, something gets lost. Confidence is patchy. Key person dependency is real. And it’s not always clear where the gaps are or how significant they might be.
The Data Fluency MOT is a structured assessment that gives your organisation a clear, honest picture of where you currently are, and a practical sense of where to focus next.
What it involves
A focused set of conversations with the people who own the data, work with it, and make decisions using it. The aim isn’t to audit or judge – it’s to understand how data flows through your organisation, where things work well, where they could work better, and whether the right conversations are happening at the right levels.
No lengthy consultancy process. No disruption to your team. Typically completed within a week of our initial conversation.
What you get
A clear, practical report that gives your organisation:
- A picture of current data capability across five dimensions of the Data Fluency Spectrum
- An honest view of where the priorities and opportunities lie
- What good looks like for an organisation like yours, and a realistic path toward it
- Something to return to, act on, and use to have better conversations about data at every level
This isn’t a document that sits in a drawer. It’s a working tool.

Who it’s for
Any HE or FE provider wanting an independent, constructive view of their data capability. Particularly useful for organisations navigating regulatory pressure, AI adoption, or leadership change. Equally relevant for a whole organisation or a single team wanting to understand where they are and what to do next.
Investment
Priced according to organisational size and complexity, starting from £1,500.
