Sigma is quick to start and easy to get wrong at scale: workbooks multiply, metric definitions drift, and migrations from Tableau or Power BI take longer than planned. This list compares ten Sigma consulting firms, with each partner tier checked against Sigma's own directory, so you can find one that fits your size and starting point.
Greyfield Data is on this list. If you are planning a move to Sigma, start with the free Tableau to Sigma migration assessment or Power BI to Sigma migration assessment, or see Sigma consulting.
Disclosure. Greyfield Data wrote this list and ranks itself first. The other nine firms were picked using the criteria below. Every detail about them (partner tier, HQ, services) comes from the firm's own website or Sigma's consulting partner directory, checked in November 2026 and linked in each section. Nobody paid to be included.
Key takeaways
- Sigma launched a tiered SI partner program in 2026 and named its first Elite and Premier partners in May 2026. Elite: Aimpoint Digital, InterWorks, and phData. Premier includes Analytics8, Velir with Brooklyn Data, Hakkoda, Slalom, Spaulding Ridge, and TEKsystems.
- Sigma's partner directory says it has more than 200 consulting and SI partners worldwide, so a firm outside the top tiers can still be a good fit.
- Most Sigma work is really warehouse work. Pick a partner that can fix the Snowflake or dbt layer under a slow or wrong workbook, not just rebuild the dashboard.
- For a migration, ask for an inventory and a pilot before a full quote. Our 9 questions to ask a Sigma migration consultant covers what to ask.

How did we pick these Sigma partners?
We started from Sigma's consulting partner directory and each firm's own site, and kept firms that met four tests.
| Criterion | What we looked for |
|---|---|
| Focus on Sigma | A dedicated Sigma service page with specific offerings, such as migrations, embedding, or training |
| Public evidence | A tier in Sigma's partner directory, Sigma certifications, or published Sigma work |
| Size fit | A mix, from one-lead consultancies to global firms, plus at least one option outside North America |
| Transparency | Clear services, locations, and ways to start, stated on the firm's own site |
We left out TEKsystems, a Sigma Premier partner, only because we could not find a Sigma service page on its own site to describe. The order after Greyfield is not a score: the three Elite partners come next, then Premier partners.

How should you choose a Sigma consulting partner?
Decide what you are buying first: a migration, a new build, embedded analytics, or ongoing support. Then test each partner on the parts that usually go wrong.
Questions to ask
- Will you inventory our current reports before quoting? Our guide to which dashboards to migrate, consolidate, or retire shows why.
- How do you translate formulas? Ask for an example from our tool, such as a Tableau LOD or a DAX measure, rewritten in Sigma.
- How will you prove the new numbers match the old ones?
- Who fixes the warehouse layer if a workbook is slow or wrong?
- What training and documentation do we get, and who owns the workbooks afterwards?
Red flags
- A fixed price before anyone has seen your report inventory.
- A plan to rebuild every dashboard one for one, with no consolidation.
- No validation step before cutover. See 10 checks before a Sigma migration cutover.
- No one on the team who can work in Snowflake, dbt, or your warehouse.
Frequently asked questions
What are Sigma's partner tiers?
Sigma's SI partner program has three tiers. In May 2026 Sigma named its first Elite and Premier partners, and its consulting partner directory lists them alongside a wider network of more than 200 partners.
Do I need an Elite Sigma partner?
Not necessarily. A tier shows a firm's track record across Sigma customers. For a smaller rollout or migration, the experience of the specific people on your project, and their knowledge of your warehouse, matter more.
How much does a Sigma migration cost?
It depends on how many reports move, how complex the formulas are, and how much the data layer needs fixing. Our migration cost guide breaks down the drivers, and the free Tableau and Power BI migration assessments give you a starting estimate.
Where does Sigma fit in a data stack?
Sigma sits on top of a cloud data platform such as Snowflake, BigQuery, or Databricks; the supported platforms list shows which ones and which features each supports. Our data stack map shows the layers around it, and the Snowflake consulting firms list covers the warehouse side.
Which list should an ecommerce brand read?
If you sell through Shopify, Amazon, or retail, also read our list of ecommerce data consultancies.
What to do next
If you are moving to Sigma, size the work before you talk to any partner. Run the free Tableau to Sigma or Power BI to Sigma migration assessment, keep the Sigma functions list open while you translate formulas, or book a call with Linus to talk through your scope.
