PowerBI solutions
Stop feeling like you don't know what is happening in your company.
We help you make the right decisions and grow your business. Our team gives you full support during the implementation of Power BI tools in your business.
On the project we work closely with you, the end-users of the tool, so that we can create a system that provides quality, timely information and helps you make the right decisions.
Power BI gives you clarity through data, greatly reducing the possibility of making the wrong business actions. Each of our implementations focuses on what is most important to you - which is why every implementation is unique.
How do we approach implementation?
Over the last 4 years, working on more than 15 implementations, the 3 most common types of implementation have crystallized:
- Our team handles complete implementation and maintenance of the system.
- Continuous education of users on how to use and modify reports.
- Operational support across all elements of the Power BI implementation: DataWarehouse and DataFlows, Power BI web and desktop, creating and maintaining reports and applications.
- After the initial implementation a monthly retainer is usually agreed, guaranteeing a defined number of hours per month (maintenance, modifications, updates, new reports).
- Think of it as outsourced accounting, but within business intelligence.
The most commonly used form of implementation.
- In the initial phase it is very similar to "key in hand", but with one important difference: from the very beginning a selected team from your company is closely involved in development.
- They participate in all phases and are trained in parallel to independently maintain and upgrade the system.
- This achieves a much faster, higher-quality implementation alongside knowledge transfer to the employees who will maintain the system long-term.
- Additional consultation hours can be arranged afterwards for more advanced activities.
Help with pre-existing systems.
- Optimization of existing Power BI-based reporting systems.
- Used when a company wants to improve an already implemented Power BI solution or add new features (e.g. a writeback option to write values directly from the Power BI interface).
- We work closely with the creators of the initial solution and build an action plan to improve the system.
- Approached through consulting (for a minor intervention) or a full reimplementation contract.
There are no hidden costs
To make sure you get a tool that delivers real financial benefits and improves your business, before generating an offer and signing a contract we follow a similar evaluation process with every client.
1. Initial meeting and general exchange of ideas and needs
- The goal is to understand why you decided to implement Power BI.
- Typical goals realized through Power BI: cost reduction through inventory optimization; faster review of P&L reports and balance sheets; revenue growth through detecting business errors (OOS, growing segments not followed by investment, etc.).
2. Exchange details on the most important data sources and current reports
- What are the possibilities of connecting to your data (databases, exports from the system or other).
- Examples of the most important reports and elements the Power BI system must meet.
- An NDA is most often signed at this stage, and the core problem becomes visible.
3. Review and preparation of the framework proposal
- Writing down all the details of the solution that need to be further clarified.
4. Operational meeting with a draft solution
- We present where the greatest benefits of Power BI would be, based on all your inputs.
- We agree on all necessary elements the system must meet.
- Your approximate investment budget is often defined here.
5. Preparation and presentation of the draft to a wider audience
- On a sample of your data - not always necessary if a decision-maker was involved from the start.
6. Offer with detailed specifications
- You receive a written offer covering the agreed scope, deliverables, timeline and price.
- Everything discussed in the previous steps is written down, so there are no surprises later.
7. Signing of the implementation contract (if the offer is accepted)
- We agree the contract, the delivery dynamics and who is involved on each side.
- Where needed, an NDA and data-processing terms are finalized before any data is shared.
8. Implementation
- We connect the data sources, build the model and reports, and set up automatic refresh.
- Your users are trained and the system is handed over, with support agreed for the period after go-live.
The process from initial contact to sending the offer usually takes up to 30 days.
General implementation guidelines
We build data models based on all available data sources relevant to your business, connecting to over 130 different data sources, including:
- Databases (SQL, Oracle, IBM, SAP…)
- Online services (SharePoint, Exchange, Google Analytics, Facebook…)
- Files (Excel, CSV, txt…)
- Azure, OData feeds, Web
Data models can be refreshed automatically at desired intervals (hourly, daily, weekly…), with options for real-time reporting and data streaming.
When creating reports we work closely with their creators and users, building on the principle "less is more" so every user finds quality information through interactive reporting. We also train users to modify the reports themselves.
The goal of every Power BI solution is to move analysis from mere observation to quality knowledge that can be applied quickly in real business - and bring you financial benefit. Since the beginning of 2019 we also provide online help with data models, DAX calculations and formatting interactive reports, and we are proud to work with several multinational companies.
Make a revolution in your reporting and achieve business growth through data analysis.
