About Joseph Ledo-Massey | JLM Data Consulting

01Data serves decisions, not dashboards.If a finding doesn't change what you do Monday morning, it doesn't belong in the report. I'll tell you when you don't need what you're asking for.
02Dollars are the only unit that matters.Every finding arrives as a dollar figure attached to a specific action and a way to measure whether it worked.
03Useful beats perfect.A well-supported answer you can act on this month is worth more than a perfect answer that requires an experiment an eleven-person shop will never run.
04You own everything, and you won't need me afterward.Findings, cleaned data, dashboards, and plain-English refresh instructions are all handed over. I build so you're independent, not dependent.
05Fixed price, fixed scope, in writing.You know the full cost before work starts. No hourly meters, no surprise invoices, no drift.
06Your numbers stay private.Handled to a recognized security standard (CompTIA Security+), stored encrypted, never shared, deleted at close-out — committed in the contract.
07Small businesses deserve big-program rigor.There's no reason an eleven-person shop should get a looser standard — only a right-sized one.

The person behind it

Joseph Ledo-Massey

I've spent my career working as an engineer on some of the most demanding programs in the country: NASA's Artemis lunar program, national defense systems, and satellite communications. I've led multi-disciplinary engineering teams and carried accountability for cost, schedule, and technical performance rather than just reporting on them. As a U.S. Military Veteran, I built data systems and analytics supporting operational planning.

I hold an MBA and a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering. My certifications cover the range of this work: Google Cloud Professional Data Engineer, PMP, CSEP, Earned Value Management, and CompTIA Security+.

Large programs answer the same three questions constantly: what does this cost, what is it worth, and what should change. Small businesses face those questions without the infrastructure to answer them. That's the gap JLM Data Consulting fills, sized and priced for how small businesses actually run.
