Power BI Consulting, Governance & Performance
Fix inconsistent metrics, slow reports and unclear ownership. Build a Power BI environment your teams can trust and manage.
As Power BI grows, different teams can end up with conflicting measures, duplicated reports, unclear access and slow semantic models. We assess your existing environment, identify the causes and work with your team to put practical governance and performance improvements in place.
We review how your Power BI environment works today, from semantic models and access rules to report performance and capacity usage. Then we prioritise practical improvements and work with your team to implement them. You gain clearer ownership, more consistent reporting and an environment your team can manage with confidence.
What we work on
We improve the foundations of your Power BI environment: semantic models, governance, security and performance. Our work starts with the issues your teams face today and focuses on changes they can maintain as usage grows.
Semantic Models & DAX
Consistent measures and efficient models your teams can trust.
Governance & Security
Clear ownership, controlled self-service and appropriate access rules.
Performance & Capacity
Identify slow reports, refresh issues and capacity bottlenecks.
What you receive
A review of your current Power BI environment, a prioritised findings report and an agreed improvement plan. Depending on the project scope, we can also implement model, security, performance and governance changes with your team

When to contact us
Contact us when teams report conflicting KPI values, reports or refreshes are slow, workspace ownership is unclear, access permissions are difficult to manage, or Power BI usage is growing without a clear governance approach.
CONFLICTING KPI VALUES
Different teams report different numbers for the same metric.
SLOW REPORTS & REFRESHES
Reports take too long to open or data refreshes fail.
UNCLEAR OWNERSHIP & ACCESS
It is unclear who owns reports, workspaces or permissions.
POWER BI IS GROWING
More teams are using Power BI, but governance has not kept pace.
We assess your environment, prioritise the improvements and implement agreed changes with your team.
Assess
Review selected models, reports, workspaces and operating practices. Identify the causes behind your priority issues.
Prioritise
Explain the findings and agree the improvement scope, responsibilities and delivery sequence.
Improve & Validate
Implement agreed changes, check the results and document how your team should maintain them.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you improve our existing Power BI environment?
Yes. We can review selected models, reports, workspaces and operating practices, then recommend targeted improvements. A complete rebuild is only considered where justified.
What does a Power BI governance review cover?
The agreed scope can include ownership, workspace organisation, access permissions, publishing practices and self-service responsibilities. We identify gaps and recommend practical operating rules.
Can you investigate slow reports and failed refreshes?
Yes. We review the affected workloads and investigate model, calculation, refresh and capacity behaviour. Improvements are prioritised around the findings.
Do you implement the recommendations?
The engagement can cover assessment and planning only, or extend to implementation, validation and knowledge transfer. Deliverables are agreed before work begins.
How do you validate the improvements?
We agree relevant reporting and operational scenarios, check calculation results and compare performance under comparable conditions where applicable.
Can our internal team work alongside you?
Yes. We can collaborate with your BI and IT teams, document the changes and include practical knowledge transfer in the engagement.
How does this differ from Data Modeling & DAX Optimization?
This service reviews the broader Power BI environment, including governance, access and operations. Data Modeling & DAX Optimization focuses more deeply on model structure and calculation logic.
