About Bart Smuga

I’m all about automation, technology, and project management - my secret weapons for making work simpler and smarter. When I’m not solving process challenges, you’ll probably find me around cars, that’s how I recharge and stay inspired. From a professional point of view, I focus on helping organizations simplify and modernize the way they work with data, especially in Finance, Tax, and Operations. For many teams, daily tasks like reconciliations, reporting, VAT preparation, e-invoicing or SAF-T submissions still rely on external consultants or Excel. In the same time, these processes are often manual, time-consuming, and difficult to control. Our goal at Data Pal is to replace that complexity with automation that is transparent, auditable, and easy to maintain in-house. As an Official Alteryx Partner, I’ve seen how powerful the right combination of automation, governance, and upskilling can be. That’s why our services go beyond implementation, we help your people truly own the solution. Our key areas of support include: Implementing automation platforms within your organization, from creating & implementing solutions to onboarding and best practices that fit your data and compliance standards. Developing internal automation communities, bringing together Finance, Tax, and Data teams to share knowledge, exchange use cases, and grow internal capabilities. Providing hands-on training, practical workshops where we automate your real processes like VAT reporting or data reconciliations, build confidence, and eliminate knowledge gaps. If your organization is exploring ways to speed up reporting, increase accuracy, or gain better control over compliance processes, let’s talk.
