- Azure Data Science Consulting in Houston
Azure data science consulting in Houston from DESSS helps you turn data you already hold in Microsoft systems into forecasts, risk scores and AI assistants. We handle data preparation, model development, deployment and monitoring, using Azure Machine Learning, Microsoft Fabric and Azure OpenAI.
Most companies get the best results from a few focused problems: forecasting demand, predicting equipment failures, scoring customers, or searching and summarizing documents. We help you choose problems where the data can support a reliable model and the result will change a decision.
If the data needs work first, our data warehouse consulting team can build the governed foundation in Fabric or Azure that good models need.
When to call us
When a pilot needs to reach production, or when you want to test AI on your own Microsoft data.
What you receive
A working model, deployment pipeline, monitoring and results in Power BI or your apps.
Who it is for
IT, operations and finance leaders, and data teams working on the Microsoft platform.
Where we work
From our Houston headquarters, with an office in Austin, for clients across Texas.
OUR SERVICES
Azure data science consulting in Houston

HOW WE WORK
How an Azure data science project runs
Six steps, with a go or no-go decision before production work begins.
STEP 01
Frame the problem
We agree the decision the model supports, how success is measured and who will use it.
STEP 02
Data review
We profile data in Azure, Fabric and source systems, and fix gaps with pipelines.
STEP 03
Prototype
Candidate models are built in Azure Machine Learning or Fabric and compared against today's method.
STEP 04
Productionize
The model is deployed and connected to Power BI, apps or business processes.
STEP 05
Monitor
Accuracy, drift and cost are tracked, with Azure MLOps pipelines for retraining.
STEP 06
Hand over
We document, train your team and stay available for new use cases.

DESSS Azure data science consulting includes use case assessment, data preparation, Azure Machine Learning and Microsoft Fabric data science, predictive analytics, Azure MLOps and Azure OpenAI implementation.
Fabric suits teams that already keep data in OneLake and report in Power BI. Azure Machine Learning offers more control for complex training, real-time endpoints and MLOps. Many companies use both.
Azure OpenAI runs inside Microsoft Azure under your subscription. We add private networking, access controls and content filtering, and review data handling with your security team.
It depends on the data and the use case. We aim to reach a go or no-go decision on a prototype early, before committing to production work.
Yes. Forecasts and scores are usually written to tables that Power BI reports read, so users see predictions next to their existing metrics.
Yes. We build forecasting, predictive maintenance and document search solutions on Azure for Houston energy companies.
