# Hartley McMaster
Hartley McMaster is a data science and analytics consultancy based in St Albans with over 30 years' industry experience. They help organisations unlock the value hidden in their data to make smarter business decisions that reduce costs, increase sales and manage risk more effectively.
The firm serves mid-market and larger organisations across sectors including healthcare, pharmaceuticals, utilities and public sector bodies. Their client base ranges from Imperial College Health Partners to utility companies and pharma firms seeking competitive advantage through data-driven strategy.
What sets Hartley McMaster apart is their pragmatic, results-focused approach. Rather than delivering reports that gather dust, they build analytical models and deploy them as working tools that directly support decision-makers. They combine retrospective data analysis—understanding what happened and why—with forward-looking data science that answers critical 'what-if' questions. Their consultants have delivered tangible outcomes: demonstrating hundreds of millions of pounds in potential NHS savings, optimising capital investment portfolios, and creating workforce planning models that guide recruitment strategy.
They also modernise how organisations manage business intelligence. Instead of outdated spreadsheets (90% of which contain errors) and out-of-date board reports, they implement contemporary BI tools creating live management dashboards that keep leadership informed in near-real time, freeing staff from manual data wrestling.
Their consultants focus on measuring what actually matters—developing bespoke KPIs aligned to specific business objectives rather than relying on generic out-of-the-box reports that rarely fit organisational needs perfectly.
