Better data creates
better decisions.

Belyakov Consult. I’m Sergiy Belyakov, a consultant in data strategy, architecture and governance. I help public institutions and international programmes make evidence-based decisions and assess results.

What holds back informed decisions

01

Conflicting figures

Institutions, regional teams and partners report different figures. Leaders need shared definitions and a consistent basis for decisions.

02

Unclear indicators

Activities are counted, but changes for people remain unclear. Indicators need to reflect what the programme is meant to achieve.

03

Fragmented registers

Records sit in separate systems and spreadsheets. Teams struggle to build a complete picture of services and the people they reach.

04

Unreliable data

Duplicates and missing records distort coverage and needs assessments. Quality checks need to catch problems before reporting.

05

Unclear ownership

Nobody knows who approves an indicator or resolves a data issue. Clear rules, accountable owners and working procedures are needed.

06

Manual reporting

Teams spend each month consolidating files. Little time remains to explain deviations or prepare recommendations for management.

07

Results without evidence

Partners and funders need to verify reported results. Every indicator needs a documented source and calculation method.

08

Competing priorities

Where should services expand and resources go? Decisions need comparable evidence on needs, access and results across locations.

Ways to work together

Consulting

Strategy and a plan of action

I help define the data your goals require, assess current processes and set priorities. Engagements include strategy workshops, independent reviews and ongoing advice. Deliverables: recommendations and an implementation roadmap.

Business Intelligence (BI)

Indicators for decision-makers

I align indicators, calculation methods and reporting requirements, and develop dashboards for coverage, resources and results. Engagements range from a single dashboard to a reporting system or improvements to existing BI.

Data architecture

From sources to analytics

I design data models, relationships between systems and analytical data marts, connecting management needs with technical delivery. Engagements include architecture reviews, solution design and implementation support.

Data quality

Find and resolve data issues

I assess completeness, consistency and duplication, and investigate discrepancies. Engagements include dataset diagnostics and recurring quality controls. Deliverables: validation rules and a prioritised remediation plan.

Data Governance

Clear rules and accountability

I help define data ownership, shared terminology, access rules and issue resolution procedures. Engagements include governance model design and implementation support. Deliverables: roles, procedures and agreed definitions.

Geospatial analysis

Service needs and access

I analyse facility locations, geographic coverage and access to services. Engagements include focused studies, maps and geospatial dashboards. Deliverables: comparisons across locations to inform service planning and resource allocation.

Areas of work

Social policy

Social protection

Analysis of registers, benefits and social services for management teams. Data quality checks, coverage analysis and identification of anomalies that warrant further review.

Inform coverage decisions, data quality improvements and risk reviews.
Access to healthcare

Health and rehabilitation

Geospatial analysis of service networks, needs and access. Dashboards to compare locations and analytical support for planning health and rehabilitation services.

Inform service access decisions and geographic priorities.
Programme monitoring

International programmes

Analytical support for programme teams and implementing partners. Indicator alignment, data verification and links between activities, results and supporting documentation.

Support programme management and evidence-based partner reporting.
