Power BI Reporting & Dashboards
Service Summary
Power BI reports built backwards from the decision they support: a clean data model, measures that are documented and checked against the source, and pages that state the finding rather than just show the data. Business users can refresh and use them without coming back to the analyst.
Typical Benefits
- One trusted version of the numbers across teams or markets
- Reports that answer a question, not just display data
- Calculation rules documented, so results can be audited
- Business users trained to self-serve

Available Service Engagement Models
*This service may be engaged via multiple engagement model options to provide maximum flexibility.
Project Based Engagement
Project based engagements operate on the basis of agreeing work and any outcomes or milestones for delivery in advance of commencement of any engagement in a ‘Statement of Work’. Prices are fixed for the agreed deliverables and should changes be required, these may incur changes to delivery costs. Payment for Project Based Engagements are agreed on a case-by-case basis, giving consideration to risk, contract value, client payment history, relationship longevity and duration.
Network Units
Network Units enable complete flexibility around any engagement. When using Network Units, clients can swap and change delivery experts, scope and duration of engagements in a frictionless manner with very little notice, in line with the quantity of Network Units purchased. Network Units can be purchased in blocks of any size and at any time and are billed in full at point of purchase.
Subscription Service
A HiveMind Subscription Service enables clients to flexibly engage with HiveMind Expert(s) in line with the subscription purchased. Subscriptions typically run for 12, 24 or 36 months or can also be arranged on a rolling 6 monthly basis. Subscriptions for 6 or 12 months are billed at the commencement of service, with billing for 24 or 36 month contracts taking place on the annual anniversary of subscription commencement.
Focus In On: Responsible for Data / CDO
New Areas of Value:
Trusted, data-driven decision making supported by evidence
Data is actively curated, well governed and therefore trusted
Improved staff productivity due to better access to the right data at the right time
Improvements around:
Can’t get timely access to data to support the needs of business stakeholders
Difficulty combining multiple sources for one version of the truth
Poor master data management
