Who it's for

Who is Power BI implementation for?

This includes: financial controllers, managers, heads of operations, directors or owners. They want to open a report in the morning and know whether everything is in order.

Situation 1 · Starting from scratch

Today you put the numbers together by hand

  • We want to stop putting the statement together by hand. We connect three systems and the statement fills itself.
  • We want one number. We align the definitions so sales, finance and the warehouse all work from one model.
  • We don't want everything to hang on one person. We document the report and teach someone on your side to change it.

Start with the Data ProbeCustom report

Situation 2 · You already have Power BI

You want reports people trust

  • We want a report people trust. We find out why the numbers differ from Excel or from another report, and bring them in line.
  • We want a report that loads fast. We measure what slows it down and propose a fix.
  • We want reports people use. We redesign them so even people who didn't build them can find their way around.

What you get

A Power BI report starts from a specific need

We build every report around a specific question you work out by hand today. For example, when a project drops below its planned margin, or when the warehouse runs out of material for a new order. The report shows it before the problem makes itself felt.

Overview

At a glance

You see whether everything is in order, and if not, where and why.

Head start

Before the problem

It catches deviations and trends before they start doing damage.

One model

One truth

Margin, order and stock mean the same thing in every report.

Without us

Handover

Documentation, and someone on your side who can change the report on their own.

Examples

What a report from us can look like

The companies and the data are fictional, but the reports show how we think about them and how we build them by the rules of storytelling. All of them are live reports in the Power BI Service.

  • Power BI report example Datlov Waterworks, industry: Water and networks Water and networks

    Datlov Waterworks

    Where the water utility is losing water: night flow in one zone jumped 46% in a week and hasn't come down since.

  • Power BI report example Hradnov Engineering, industry: Manufacturing Manufacturing

    Hradnov Engineering

    Why line 3 stands still: availability is 13 points lower than last year, and micro-stops eat up the most time.

  • Power BI report example Technosklad Bela, industry: Finance Finance

    Technosklad Bela

    Who pays late: in construction, payments have been coming in 24 days later since June, and the report says who to call.

How it works

How does a Power BI implementation work, and how long does it take?

Under good conditions, the first report runs within a week of the start of the work. The total length depends mainly on how quickly your side agrees on definitions and on making the data available.

  1. We set the target

    Financial reporting or operations? Do you want to know who's missing their budget, or which order will be late?

  2. We map your data

    We find out where the data is, in what format, how clean it is, and what we can pull from it for the report.

  3. Key step

    We build and fine-tune

    First we deliver a minimum viable product for testing, then we fine-tune the report together until it fits.

  4. We hand over, you take it from there

    The report runs automatically on your infrastructure. You can run it without us, but we stay in touch.

Why this way

How we think about reports

For us, a report is done the moment someone makes a decision based on it. That's why we start with the question the report should answer. Every report should also be developed together with the person who'll make decisions based on it.

What stays

The report runs on your side and without us. Your numbers don't need us to keep working.

FAQ

Power BI implementation: FAQ

How long does the first report take?

Under good conditions, within a week of the start of the work. The total length depends mainly on how quickly your side agrees on definitions and on making the data available.

How much does a custom report cost?

The price comes from the actual work on the report: mapping the data, consulting with the report's future users, and the development itself. So reports are priced by complexity.

How much do the licenses cost?

We usually build reports in Microsoft Power BI in your tenant. The report itself doesn't need a license, but using it does. What you need and what it costs is summed up in the guide How much Power BI costs.

Do you offer Power BI consulting?

Yes. Consulting on a report or model you already have starts with an intro call. When we don't know what runs in your environment, we start with an audit.

Is our data safe?

The report runs in your Microsoft 365 tenant, with your access rights. The data doesn't come to us, and after the handover you manage access.

Do we need our own IT?

You don't need your own IT. You just need someone to help you set up the tenant and any licenses. We can do that for you too.

Can our team take over the report?

Yes, that's what the handover is for. If you want your team to develop it further too, we add training on your data to the project.
