Navigating Data Challenges with Tableau

At OCS Consulting, we understand that organisations rely on Tableau not just for visual analytics, but as a core part of their reporting and data ecosystem.  As data volumes, infrastructure complexity and governance requirements continue to grow, keeping Tableau environments running smoothly, securely and efficiently becomes increasingly important. Our focus is on helping clients maintain a stable, well-structured Tableau platform - enabling your teams to create insights with confidence.

Our Tableau Services

We provide flexible engagement models, from a single day of Java consultancy to large, fully managed Java projects. Combined with our management approach and Java technical skills we consistently deliver high quality Java development and consultancy services to our clients.

OCS Consulting provides a full range of services to support organisations using Tableau, with particular emphasis on administration, environment management and long-term platform care. Our offerings include:

  • Tableau Server Administration & Environment Management:  We ensure your Tableau Server or Tableau Cloud environment is configured correctly, secure and optimised. Whether you're running established releases such as 2021.4 or 2022.3, or more recent versions like 2023.1, 2023.3 or 2024.x, we support the full lifecycle of your environment - from deployment to daily operations
  • Upgrades, Patching & Lifecycle Support:  Tableau’s release cycle moves quickly and staying current is key for security and performance. We manage upgrades from older versions (for example 2020.x or 2021.x) through to the current 2024.x releases, performing compatibility checks, regression testing and environment validation. This ensures your platform remains supported, compliant and stable, without disrupting reporting activities
  • Integration & Data Connectivity:  Whether your data sits in relational databases, cloud platforms, warehouses or legacy systems, we establish and maintain the right connections between your sources and Tableau. This includes configuring gateways, ensuring extract efficiency and advising on architecture best practices
  • Performance Optimisation & Governance:  We help organisations manage workbook performance, improve server throughput and implement governance structures suited to enterprise-scale reporting. This ensures your Tableau environment scales effectively, remains secure and complies with internal policies
  • Support for Dashboard & Report Development:  While our primary focus is on backend administration and platform health, we also support teams in enhancing existing dashboards, validating data models and aligning reporting structures with business needs
  • Migration & Consolidation Assistance:  For organisations moving away from legacy BI platforms or fragmented reporting, we provide structured migration services into Tableau -  ensuring smooth user adoption and minimal operational impact.
