Power BI advisory connects business measures with data models, reports and refresh controls used by management.
Understanding Power BI Services
When to consider this service
Business owners and functional leaders responsible for a defined operating, technology or people-management requirement can use this service to clarify a particular issue. A useful starting question is: “What should be validated before publishing a Power BI report?” Begin with the facts behind that question rather than assuming that a standard package will resolve it.
Scope of work
The engagement can cover the following workstreams. The proposal specifies which apply to your matter and what evidence or specialist input is needed.
- Define measures and report user decisions.
- Review data models and transformation logic.
- Plan access refreshes and owner handover.
Documents and information to prepare
Start with the records below where available. They help establish the facts before a more specific checklist is agreed.
- Data samples.
- KPI definitions.
- Existing models.
- Access requirements.
Provide the relevant entity, transaction or reporting period and any existing notice or deadline. Identify missing or inconsistent records so they can be addressed explicitly.
A key issue to resolve
A report’s accuracy depends on modelling and measure definitions; visual consistency alone is not a data-quality check.
How the engagement works
- Define the question: define measures and report user decisions, using the available data samples and the facts you provide.
- Examine the evidence: review data models and transformation logic. Record unresolved information and the assumptions that affect the analysis.
- Agree the action: plan access refreshes and owner handover. Set the required deliverables, responsible owners and any follow-up or external dependency.
Deliverables, fees and timing
The proposal for Power BI Services sets out the analysis, documentation or coordination deliverables and the work you retain. The availability of data samples, KPI definitions, existing models and access requirements affects readiness and the amount of follow-up needed. Fees and the working schedule are agreed after that initial assessment. Any required independent report, legal representation or authority application is identified as a separate responsibility where relevant.
