What We Do

End-to-end EBX consulting — covering every stage of your master data programme, from the first conversation through to ongoing support.

EBX Installation & Configuration

Full EBX platform deployment on-premise or in the cloud. From infrastructure planning and installation through to configuration, performance tuning, and go-live support.

Requirements Gathering

Working closely with business and technical stakeholders to define clear, actionable data management requirements — bridging the gap between business need and technical solution.

Data Model Design

Robust, scalable EBX data models designed precisely around your business domain — from single-domain MDM through to complex multi-domain data governance solutions.

Java Customisation

Bespoke EBX extensions, custom workflows, UI components and system integrations — developed in Java to make EBX work exactly the way your business needs it to.

About Forbina Consulting

Forbina Consulting is the practice of Steve Higgins — a UK-based Information Systems Professional with over 30 years' experience across a broad range of industries and technologies.

Steve began working with TIBCO EBX (formerly Orchestra Networks EBX) in 2010 and has since delivered MDM and data governance solutions across every version of the platform — EBX4, EBX5 and EBX6 — as well as the full suite of TIBCO EBX Add-ons and solution accelerators.

Established in 2013, Forbina Consulting brings the knowledge and rigour of a large-scale consultancy with the personal service and commitment of a specialist independent. One dedicated consultant who understands your project from kick-off to go-live — and beyond.

Steve combines deep technical capability with genuine business acumen. He is equally comfortable discussing data strategy with a governance committee as he is designing complex data models or writing advanced Java customisations.
