Numberskills
Industry: Data Analytics & Business Intelligence (BI)
Region: Sweden
Overview
Founded in Europe in 2017, Numberskills is a data analytics company specializing in Power BI solutions that help organizations turn complex business data into actionable insights. As demand grew across Europe, the founder struggled to manage expanding workloads due to a shortage of skilled technical resources in Sweden, slowing project delivery and limiting the company’s ability to scale.
Numberskills partnered with Build NYC Tech to solve this. The collaboration started with a single trial developer whose strong performance validated the model. Build NYC Tech then expanded the team to more than 15 skilled developers, including three engineers embedded within the client’s core team, enabling Numberskills to accelerate delivery and strengthen its position as a leading Power BI provider across Europe.
Challenges
- Severe resource shortage: A lack of skilled technical talent in Sweden left the founder managing an unsustainable workload alone, slowing project delivery and closing doors to innovation and service expansion.
Solutions
- Initial consultation: Build NYC Tech conducted a detailed assessment to identify the root cause: a shortage of skilled resources constraining delivery capacity and growth.
- Trial engagement: A single developer was placed on a short trial, quickly integrating with the existing team and demonstrating strong technical capability, successfully validating the partnership model.
- Strategic team scaling: Following the successful trial, Build NYC Tech deployed a dedicated team of more than 15 developers to accelerate timelines and support multiple client projects simultaneously.
- Embedded collaboration: Three developers were selected to work directly within Numberskills’ core operations, enabling deeper coordination and ensuring consistent, high-quality Power BI delivery across Europe.
