The second part of this two-part article focuses on BRF Consulting’s partnerships, services, and solutions.
Before BRF Consulting’s annual meeting and Thanksgiving event, BRF’s Founder and Solutions Architect, Angelo Buss, invited several of its consultants to discuss the company's most recent partnerships and projects, as well as a successful case study. Buss and his team also provided a brief overview of innovative solutions under development at BRF that are set to launch in 2026.
Partnerships & Projects
In 2025, BRF partnered with other consulting firms to deliver solutions on specific projects.
With AICG, BRF has been working on an ongoing endeavour with a construction company in the United States. BRF completed the first phase of migrating its legacy transactional system, which includes payroll, inventory, and project management, to Oracle Fusion.
In about six weeks, “the first phase completed successfully… and we have been able to gain the customers' trust, so they've extended this project now and also expanded our footprint,” explained BRF Consultant William Both.
In addition to analyzing reports – applying a high-level roadmap to build a solution within the client’s platform using Snowflake for data modeling and data integration optimization, utilizing dbt, and aligning those with the releases of the new Oracle Fusion Cloud Application modules – BRF is aiming to complete the Power BI report development for this client.
Earlier this year, AICG and BRF also collaborated on four other projects. An international environmental consulting firm hired them to apply Streamlit and Snowflake in its operations. Also, a financial institution engaged their services to implement an Artificial Intelligence Chatbot Management tool using React, FastAPI, and Supabase.
The consulting firms also helped develop two software tools: a dashboard for jail management systems and an AI-generated video program, both built with React and FastAPI.
“I was focused on the front-end part the project related to video generation, AI image generation prompt, backups for administration, and the website to get the leads and new clients for this application,” noted BRF Consultant Lucas Guerra.

BRF and Red Pill Analytics (RPA) also have collaborated on several projects over the years. Recently, BRF has allocated a few engineers to provide Data Engineering services, using various technologies for three clients: a medical technology company focused on therapeutic solutions, a provider of cloud and software platforms systems and services for an internet service supplier, and a global management consulting firm.
BRF Consultant Felipe Novais has been working with the latter firm’s marketing data engineering team for three years. The project aims to improve its social media, podcast platform, and website, and to migrate several legacy technologies to AWS, Fivetran, dbt, and Snowflake.
Novais is also currently assisting in assessing requirements for machine learning techniques to this client's data collection, as it "is willing to introduce AI and a lot of new platforms next year.”
Internally, BRF Consultant Leonardo Farias has been helping update this client's massive database system, which migrated from SAP HANA to Oracle DB.
“My job there is to basically make sure that all the information that we had before can [be imputed into] the new database,” Farias explained. “At the same time, they didn't stop working, so every time they need something new, a [new] feature, we also develop it in the new DB.”
As a result, there has been extensive translation work due to data discrepancies between the SAP and Oracle databases. To address this issue, BRF used Python to create Jinja-based scripts.
BRF also helped a cloud and software service provider consolidate its sales dataset, which, after almost four years, is now viewed daily by 200 staff users, who use these reports to take specific actions. The company is also moving into a new marketing attribution project.
“We are trying to consolidate all the sources into a single source of truth and, based on that, build a new marketing attribution based on multiple touches for the whole marketing department,” BRF Consultant Daniel Dantas noted.
Additionally, Dantas says this client has made a significant push toward using AI and is working to enhance the company’s Power BI Co-pilot.
“We are investigating MCP. That seems a very promising technology to aggregate the information and pass more context to the LLM and consequently, return more confident, more current answers for each of our users' requests,” Dantas added.

Another partner in 2025 was a large consulting Oracle shop in the United States that won several Oracle Titan Awards. BRF Consultant Both connected with two of the company owners, and they brought BRF into two projects.
One was a client in the semiconductor, software, and security solutions that needed help with data integration of its enterprise reporting. The client started using Informatica and later migrated to Incorta, a much more efficient, optimizable tool with capabilities similar to dbt.
BRF consultants went through, looked at the critical path of the load process, and cleaned up some of the SQL that was in the data loads and extractions. Six months later, this client’s enterprise went from a 3.5-hour load time, which ran twice a day, to just under 60 minutes.
“That provided the client the ability to run this process now more than twice a day if they need to,” Both affirmed. “It was a very successful project. The client was extremely happy.”
The second customer, was a large consumer value store in the United States that focuses on pharmaceutical products, which was struggling with employee payment fraud. It were using a combination of AWS and Tableau for its payroll, but had three separate transactional systems that needed to be combined: a workday solution, an ADFS, used for individuals who logged into its systems, and a badging system, which showed when an employee entered or exited the store and offices.
“Combining all that information utilizing Google BigQuery as the platform, [BRF] ended up coming up with a Tableau solution that incorporated all three of those data sources into a consolidated report,” Both said.
This solution saved the company over $1 million in less than a month “because it found payments that were going out incorrectly,” he observed.
Success Case
In 2025, BRF continued to support LedWave, a multinational leader in LED panels, in implementing a customized Salesforce Sales Cloud and Platform solution across its operations, used by almost 80 users, leveraging LWC, Visualforce, Apex Triggers, and Heroku applications.
“The good thing about working for them is that they are giving us the opportunity to do integration of other systems, to learn,” said Angelo Buss, BRF’s founder and solutions architect.
Since LedWave hired BRF, its operations have scaled up 30%.
BRF Consultant Gabriel Azevedo also explained that BRF implemented SAP, a leading Enterprise Resource Planning platform, which enabled LedWave to integrate with other products and companies.
“They are very open-minded to new projects, and we have already had opportunities to implement interesting projects there,” Azevedo said, including the application of Oktadesk and RD Station to connect to its Whatsapp, marketing tools, and Salesforce.
“Now they have giant ecosystems to work with their leads and increase their client management,” Azevedo noted.
For other BRF Consultants, working with LedWave has been very positive.
“It's been a very good experience… because I feel that people at Leadwave are very open-minded to new things we bring to them,” said Gabriel Menino, with the LED company for almost a year.
Felipe Elijah has witnessed the company grow in the last 2.5 years of work with it.
“It's something amazing to see. They're always innovating. They accept a lot of changes, they are very [accepting] to new things,” he observed. Also, “working with Salesforce and the platforms that they use, has been amazing.”

Solutions under Development
BRF also delved into creating its own solutions in 2025.
Currently, BRF has been developing a license-free, field service application for Salesforce API to run on Android cell phones. The first version used Flutter to showcase LedWave how it can work and connect to Salesforce. The second is using React Native.
“It's been a new challenge, a fun experience in general,” said BRF Consultant Pedro Angert. “We had some issues connecting it to the Salesforce, and I had to ask for help as the API is kind of confusing.”
This app can be customized to any industry that requires field technicians to help them manage the installation of a product, such as LedWave’s LED panels, mobile, and solar panel companies.
“There's so much market for field services everywhere on this planet,” Buss remarked. “Our application tracks location even when there's no Wi-Fi, 3G, or internet signal. It's pretty unique.”
He added, “I know it's very complex, but building mobile applications, this is something we started recently, and it's pretty cool.”
BRF is also building customized virtual chatbot agents with predefined models and a limited scope, to be released soon, that can be added to any client’s main webpage to support its products or services.
“The goal is to track a conversation, and every time we keep asking a question, it captures the leads,” Buss explained. “This information will be tracked initially through a database, but it could also go to a database as a lead.”
This app will also offer a complete back-office admin page and a fully responsive interface, ensuring it fits on any screen.
“It's interesting because we developed a specifically mobile version that respects the Safe Area of a cellphone, so the application, the chat, fits really well on any mobile,” Guerra added.
