Andrew Quraishi

Built and led an enterprise advisory practice helping executives modernize how decisions are made by aligning data, AI, and platform strategies to measurable business outcomes.

• Decision unlocked: Designed executive Decision Board™ frameworks enabling C-suite leaders to move from insight consumption to structured, accountable decision-making.
• Revenue influenced: Shaped data and AI strategies across $160M+ in client revenue initiatives spanning financial services, manufacturing, infrastructure, and regulated industries.
• Complexity removed: Defined integrated sales, marketing, and technology strategies — accelerating pipeline conversion by 35% and GTM execution speed.
• Advisory authority: Delivered thought leadership at Microsoft, Snowflake, Databricks, SAP, and CDAO events.
• Publishing platform: Launched The Soverion Signal, a broadsheet-style thought-leadership newsletter for an enterprise executive audience.
• Agentic product development: Built agentic tooling for automated infrastructure and data-lake deployments — turning manual, ticket-driven provisioning into a repeatable, self-service capability.
• Mobile-cloud extension: Developed mobile cloud applications giving executive clients on-the-go access to decision-support tooling.

• Modernization lens · Delivered enterprise hybrid-cloud migration architectures — SAP/Oracle/SQL Server to Fabric Lakehouse, ADF pipeline re-engineering, PySpark transformation layers, Power BI Direct Lake models, and governed Azure OpenAI/Copilot integration.
• Transformation lens · Redesigned the Microsoft practice operating model — offering portfolio, delivery governance standards, GTM motion (co-sell, ECIF/PFE funding, Microsoft field alignment), and team enablement.
• Renewal synthesis: Built a reusable AI-native presales workflow (Claude, GPT, Gamma, Dynamics 365, Viva Sales, Salesloft, Gong) that compressed sales cycles while maintaining solution quality.
• Delivered $4.5M in new project revenue — the outcome of a practice simultaneously technically renewed and organizationally transformed.

• Modernization lens · Architected the full technical renewal — parameterized ADF pipelines for SAP ECC/Azure SQL, PySpark Silver notebooks, T-SQL Gold layer in Fabric Warehouse, Power BI Direct Lake, Microsoft Purview governance, and Azure OpenAI/Copilot readiness.
• Transformation lens · Redesigned the analytics operating model — eliminated production ERP dependency, established data ownership across Finance/Operations/Supply Chain, designed the governance council and stewardship roles, and produced runbooks teams owned independently.
• Business case renewal: Built the executive investment narrative — ROI model, phased roadmap, risk analysis, and board-ready business case — securing full C-suite commitment before delivery.
• Delivered 80% platform cost reduction — paired with a renewed organization governing and extending the platform independently.

• Enterprise renewal advisory: Led C-suite engagement on integrated renewal programs — assessing legacy Oracle/Teradata/on-prem EDW estates, designing cloud-native architectures (Synapse, Fabric, Databricks, Snowflake), and producing phased roadmaps with TCO models.
• Organizational renewal: Redesigned the global delivery model — expanded the partner ecosystem across US, Canada, LATAM, India, and Eastern Europe; established delivery and architecture governance standards.
• Practice renewal: Defined renewal-oriented consulting frameworks — assessment methodology, roadmap templates, operating-model design guides, and governance playbooks.
• Mentored and developed senior renewal architects across six geographies.

• Technical renewal: Designed the Azure cloud data platform practice from zero — migration methodology, ADF delivery standards, Synapse design patterns, Power BI governance, and Microsoft co-sell GTM with ECIF/PFE funding.
• Organizational renewal: Rebuilt the commercial operating model — team structure, sales engagement stack (Salesloft, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, HubSpot), delivery governance, and Microsoft alliance model.
• Delivered 200% revenue growth in under 12 months — the compounding outcome of simultaneous technical and organizational renewal.

• Led enterprise digital renewal programs for Fortune 500 clients across financial services, healthcare, and consumer sectors — assessing legacy Oracle/Teradata EDW, designing Synapse and Databricks target architectures, and delivering Purview governance frameworks.
• Directed data governance renewal — Purview catalog implementations, metadata strategy, lineage capture, and sensitivity classification as the organizational component of data-platform modernization.
• Led presales for $160M+ in new renewal project revenue using AI-assisted proposal tools and executive renewal investment narratives.

• Led Azure cloud and data platform renewal engagements — SQL Server to Azure SQL MI migration, SSIS to ADF ETL renewal, on-prem reporting to Power BI governance — each paired with stakeholder enablement and adoption planning.
• Built the practice's digital renewal delivery framework — assessment methodology, cloud architecture standards, governance requirements, and adoption templates.

• Principal renewal architect for enterprise data platform modernization — DB2-to-Azure migration, SSIS-to-ADF re-engineering, and Power BI reporting transformation — paired with governance model design and capability development across financial services, retail, and media.
• Contributed to $28M in cloud analytics growth through renewal-framed delivery validated by documented business outcomes.

• Led enterprise analytics platform renewal for a global telecom — re-engineered the semantic layer, optimized ETL from SSIS to T-SQL batch patterns, and implemented columnstore indexing, enabling $400–500K MRR uplift.
• Architected a recurring-revenue expansion strategy delivering $39M in annual impact — increasing MRR by $500K per cycle and scaling to a $72M ARR run rate.

• Delivered enterprise data platform and analytics solutions — developing the foundational modernization skills and stakeholder-engagement discipline underpinning all subsequent digital renewal program leadership.
