Excel & Access Consulting

15+ years of hands-on Excel and Access work for finance and operations teams. You work with me directly; no middlemen.

I'm Robert Terry. For over 20 years, I've worked at the intersection of business logic and Microsoft technology.

My approach is straight forward: I find the friction in your data processes and build systems that get rid of it.

When you hire me, you're not getting just a programmer. You're getting a business partner who actually understands how your operations work.

Direct Principal Access

Every conversation is with me. No account managers, no junior developers, no outsourcing. The person who understands your business is the same person writing your code.

Code Ownership

You own 100% of what I build. No licenses, no lock-in, no recurring fees. The systems I build are yours, period.

Transparent Pricing

Clear scope, clear milestones, clear expectations. No surprises, no hidden costs.

Enterprise Security

All work happens in your IT environment. Your data never leaves your firewall. I'm ready to sign corporate NDAs right away.

Specialization Over Generalization

I'm not a creative designer. I'm not generalist IT support. I'm a specialist in the Microsoft Data Stack: Excel, Access, VBA, and SQL Server.

This focus means I understand the deep technical constraints and possibilities of these platforms. I know how to push Excel to its limits without breaking it. I know how to build Access databases that scale to hundreds of users. I know how to write VBA that runs reliably for years.

When your business depends on these tools, you need someone who's spent decades mastering them, not someone who can "also do Excel" among a dozen other technologies.

How I Work

01

Understand

Deep-dive audit of your current logic, workflows, and pain points. I don't assume; I verify how your business actually works.

02

Design

Structural architecture of the database or automation system. This includes data models, user interfaces, and error-handling that actually works.

03

Build

Development in a sandbox environment. You'll see progress at each milestone, and we can tweak things before final deployment.

04

Handover

Complete documentation, training, and support. Your team will know how to use and maintain the system on their own.
