Why Architecture Matters
Spaghetti code is expensive. Good design is an investment.

A well-architected system is the difference between a platform that crashes on launch day and one that handles millions of requests seamlessly. We don’t just pick “trendy” tech; we select the right tools for your specific business logic.

  • Scalability: Systems designed to handle 100 users or 1,000,000 without a rewrite.

  • Maintainability: Clean codebases that any developer can jump into and understand.

  • Performance: Optimized databases and caching layers for lightning-fast load times.

Data Engineering Solutions
From deep-level coding to visual storytelling.

  1. Data Migration & Legacy Modernization

Moving data is risky. We mitigate that risk. We specialize in complex ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) processes that move your data securely from Legacy System A to Modern System B without losing history.

  • Capabilities: Schema Mapping Data Cleansing Deduplication Scripts Validation Testing

  1. Data Warehousing & Architecture

You can’t query a production database for reports without slowing down your app. We build dedicated Data Warehouses and Data Lakes that aggregate information from all your sources into a single source of truth.

  • Tech Stack: Snowflake Amazon Redshift Google BigQuery Azure SQL

  1. Business Intelligence (BI) & Reporting

Once the data is clean, we make it beautiful. We build custom dashboards that update in real-time, giving you a cockpit view of your business health.

  • Tools: Power BI Tableau Google Looker Studio Custom React Dashboards

  1. Analytics & Tag Management

We ensure you are tracking the right events. We implement advanced tracking setups (GA4, GTM, Server-Side Tracking) to ensure your marketing data is accurate and privacy-compliant.

  • Services: Google Tag Manager Setup Conversion Rate Optimization (CRO) Event Tracking

The LockData Data Methodology
A rigorous path to reliability.

1. Audit & Discovery:

We map your current data landscape. Where does data live? Who owns it? How dirty is it?

2. Strategy & Schema Design:

We design the target architecture. We define the rules for how data should be structured.

3. ETL & Engineering:

We write the scripts to move and transform the data. We run "dry runs" to catch errors early.

4. Validation & Visualization:

We verify the numbers against the source. Only then do we build the reports.

5. Ongoing Maintenance & Optimization

During the support phase we will monitor and maintain the solution ensuring all things are running smoothly, optimized and performing perfectly.

Case Studies

Data Services:
What's Actually Possible

Not sure what “data services” really means for your organization, or where to start? Here’s a plain-English look at what we do with data, and why it matters for arts and live event organizations.

Getting your data out of the box office

Your most valuable data, who bought, who gave, who attended, is often locked inside your ticketing system, hard to reach and harder to use. We build pipelines that extract that data and put it where you can actually use it: your CRM, your reporting tools, or a central data warehouse. We built exactly this for Playhouse Square, pulling their AudienceView data into Salesforce. We also build the custom software and platforms around your data.

One place where all your numbers live

When your data is scattered across ticketing, fundraising, marketing, and finance systems, no one can see the whole picture. We build data warehouses that pull everything into a single source of truth, so your team stops arguing about whose numbers are right and starts making decisions.

Dashboards that answer real questions

Reports shouldn’t take a week to pull. We build live dashboards in tools like Power BI, Tableau, and Looker Studio that show what you actually need to know: sales pace for an upcoming show, donor retention, subscription renewals, campaign performance. When your board asks a question, the answer is on screen.

Moving data without losing it

Switching systems, or merging data from multiple sources, is where organizations lose history and accuracy. We handle data migration carefully, mapping, cleaning, de-duplicating, and validating, so you move to your new system with your data intact and trustworthy.

Clean data you can actually trust

Bad data leads to bad decisions. We scrub, de-duplicate, and standardize your data so what’s in your systems is accurate. Clean data makes everything downstream, marketing, fundraising, reporting, work better.

Tracking the right things

If your analytics aren’t set up correctly, you’re making decisions on bad numbers. We implement accurate, privacy-compliant tracking (GA4, Google Tag Manager, server-side tracking) so your marketing and web data actually reflects reality.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you get our ticketing data out for reporting or our CRM?
Yes. This is a core specialty. We build pipelines that extract data from ticketing platforms like AudienceView, Tessitura, and Spektrix and deliver it to your CRM, reporting tools, or a data warehouse, so your box office data works for your whole organization.

Can you build dashboards from our data?
Yes. We build live dashboards in Power BI, Tableau, and Looker Studio that show sales pace, donor retention, subscription renewals, and campaign performance, so leadership gets accurate, current numbers without manual reporting.

Do you work with performing arts and nonprofit organizations?
Yes. It’s a core focus. We help performing arts centers, theaters, and nonprofits turn box office, fundraising, and marketing data into a single, reliable source of truth for better decisions.

What is ETL?
ETL stands for Extract, Transform, Load. It’s the process of taking data from one system (Extract), cleaning or reformatting it (Transform), and placing it into a new database or warehouse (Load).

Can you merge data from two different companies?
Yes. M&A data consolidation is a common request. We map the unique fields from both organizations to create a unified database.

Do you help with GA4 migration?
Yes. We assist businesses in moving to Google Analytics 4 (GA4), ensuring historical data comparisons are preserved where possible and event tracking is set up correctly.

Can you help if our data is a mess?
Yes. We audit, clean, de-duplicate, and standardize messy or scattered data, then build the pipelines and structure to keep it clean going forward.

Is my data secure during migration?
Absolutely. We use encrypted transfer protocols and secure sandbox environments. We never expose production data to the public web.
