Many organisations rely on processes and systems that have grown organically over time. Spreadsheets layered on legacy tools. Manual workarounds. Data that is hard to trust. Sound familiar?
As complexity increases, these foundations quietly start to limit decision-making, slow teams down, and introduce operational risk. Opportunities to improve processes are missed, and teams spend more time working around problems rather than pushing the organisation forward.
At North Foundry, we believe there’s always a better way, and it doesn’t need to take months before you start seeing the difference. With the right tools in the right places, organisations can move faster, make clearer decisions, and unlock value that already exists in their operations.
We always start by spending time with operational teams. Taking the time to understand how processes actually run, where friction sits, and where the real opportunities lie.
We believe the biggest gains come when digital capability sits close to operations, not at arm’s length. When the people closest to the problem have the right support and technology to improve it.
We prefer to work on site with operational teams to design and build tools that fit how work really happens. In parallel, we stay aligned with central IT teams, working within existing standards and guardrails so what’s built is secure, supportable, and ready to scale.
Our work is deliberately hands-on. You’ll see progress early, shape things as they develop, and stay close to the decisions being made. It’s a collaborative way of working that you'll enjoy, keeping momentum without losing sight of what matters.
We focus on a small, but rounded number of digital consulting services, that can make a real difference to how organisations operate.
We rapidly design and build bespoke internal applications that allow expert business owners to view their data, understand what’s happening, and take action in one place.
Typical use cases include managing workflows, customers, assets, and operational exceptions. Applications are built around real processes, integrated with existing systems, and delivered to an enterprise standard, either handed over to internal teams or supported on an ongoing basis.
We design clear, decision-led dashboards and reports built around what matters most to the organisation, surfacing insight not just to senior leadership but to those closest to the work.
Designed and built at pace, these dashboards answer the critical questions that drive continuous improvement.
This includes integrating disparate data sources, cleansing and transforming data, and implementing monitoring to ensure data quality and reliability over time. The result is data that’s trusted, well-structured, and readily available, enabling business teams to explore, analyse, and draw insight without relying on manual workarounds.
Where it makes sense, we support teams with applied data science and pragmatic uses of AI. This can include forecasting, prioritisation, and pattern analysis to support better decision-making.
We understand the potential of AI, but we’re equally conscious that strong data foundations come first. The emphasis is always on solving real problems and delivering practical value, not introducing technology for its own sake.
We’ve supported teams across a range of industries, helping them improve how they operate through better data, tools, and automation.
This includes work across:
Often in environments where off-the-shelf products fall short, and solutions need to be shaped around real operational complexity.

Fin is a Digital Consultant with a background in engineering and a focus on building practical digital tools that improve how organisations operate.
He is a Manufacturing Engineering graduate from the University of Cambridge and has experience working across both early-stage start-ups and large, complex organisations. His career includes time at Dyson, as well as Newton and Cogna, where he worked closely with operational teams and central IT functions on data-led and technology-enabled change.
These experiences shaped Fin’s view of how digital work is delivered in practice. While working within established consultancy and start-up models, he saw the strengths of each, but also where things can fall short. In particular, the challenges of choosing the right tooling for the job, striking the right balance between delivery and change, and ensuring solutions are properly handed over, supported, and sustained over time.
North Foundry Consulting was founded to take a different approach. One that brings digital and data capability closer to the teams doing the work, combines technical rigour with operational understanding, and focuses on delivering solutions that make a tangible difference and stand the test of time.
Outside of work, Fin enjoys running, street orienteering, and the occasional pub quiz.
