Brisbane data analytics and AI consultancy. We understand first, then build.

We understand the decision first, then build
Most analytics projects fail for a human reason, not a technical one: nobody agreed what decision the work was meant to support. We start there, then reach for Tableau, Power BI, Snowflake, Databricks or code.

Motta Consulting is a Brisbane data analytics consultancy led by Dr Marco Motta, who pairs a background in philosophy and critical thinking with years working inside Queensland Treasury and the Department of Transport and Main Roads. We bring that state and local government experience together with hands-on skill in Tableau, Power BI, Snowflake and Databricks.
What clients say
“The development of a comprehensive Power BI dashboard transformed our financial reporting, saving us over 50 staff hours per month. We highly recommend Motta Consulting to anyone looking to automate their reporting and make better data-driven decisions.”

“We gave Motta Consulting the challenge of presenting science-heavy epidemiological data in a suitable format for a range of stakeholders. The outcome was a series of very well accepted interactive Tableau dashboards which have set a new standard for our organisation.”

“Motta Consulting were great partners during the development of an automated reporting solution. Our stakeholders were so pleased they reported the outcomes exceeded their expectations. I will happily seek out Motta Consulting in future for automated reporting in Tableau.”

“We have a lot of data and sources, pulling this together to compare and make sense of would typically be a huge undertaking. With a good scope from our side and Motta Consulting's know-how we spun up a working, stable platform that we use daily. It is our new source of the truth. It's already enabling insights we hadn't thought of and continue to see new opportunities it brings.”
