OUR EXPERIENCE

Is Your BI System Stuck in the Past?

Your Reports are Too Slow

Your current BI tools are sluggish and static. Business leaders wait days for answers, and when reports finally arrive, the data is already out of date. You can’t react to market changes fast enough.

You’re Drowning in “Report Sprawl”

You have thousands of reports, but nobody knows which ones are accurate. Users are overwhelmed by duplicates and conflicting numbers, leading to a total lack of trust in the data.

IT is a Bottleneck

Every new chart or dashboard requires a ticket to IT. Your technical team is buried in maintenance work, while business users are frustrated because they can’t answer simple questions themselves.

AI and Copilots Don’t Work

You want to use modern tools like Microsoft Copilot to “chat” with your data, but your legacy infrastructure isn’t ready. Your data isn’t structured or governed well enough to support reliable AI.

High Licensing & Maintenance Costs

You are paying a fortune to maintain legacy on-premise servers (like SAP BusinessObjects or Cognos) that deliver a fraction of the value of modern cloud platforms.

OUR METHOD

Our Method – Modernize Your BI for Speed and AI

We don’t just move your old reports to a new tool. We treat modernization as a strategic reset. Our consulting approach makes sure your new BI platform is faster, easier to manage, and ready for the future of AI.

01

Move from Static to Dynamic

We transform static, historical reporting into dynamic, self-service intelligence. By moving to modern platforms like Microsoft Power BI, we empower your business users to explore data and find their own answers without waiting for IT.

02

Clean Up and Consolidate

Migration is the perfect time to clean house. We don’t just “lift and shift” your mess. We use automation to identify unused reports, merge duplicates, and rationalize your inventory, often reducing report volume by 50% or more.

03

Build an AI-Ready Semantic Layer

To use AI, your data must speak one language. We build a governed semantic layer that defines your metrics (like “Gross Margin”) once and for all. This ensures that every dashboard—and every AI agent—gives you the same trusted answer.

END-TO-END CAPABILITIES

From Legacy to Leading Edge – Full-Cycle BI Modernization

From the initial audit to the final user training, we handle the heavy lifting.

Modernizing BI is more than just swapping software; it’s about changing how your company uses data. Unlike generalist firms, we are specialized BI architects. We handle the entire lifecycle: auditing your report inventory, automating the migration, and training your team on the new platform. You don’t need separate vendors for strategy and implementation—we build your future-ready analytics engine.

Strategic Planning Icon

Portfolio Assessment & Rationalization

We scan your current environment to identify which reports are actually being used. We kill the “zombies” and prioritize the high-value assets for migration.

Infrastructure Icon

Automated Migration & Re-Platforming

We use AI-powered accelerators to migrate your logic and visualizations from legacy tools (SAP BO, Tableau, Qlik) to Power BI or Fabric, saving months of manual effort.

Integration Icon

Semantic Layer Implementation

We build a shared logic layer (using tools like dbt or Power BI datasets) that separates your business rules from the visualization, ensuring consistency and governance.

Analytics Icon

Copilot & AI Integration

We configure your new environment to support AI assistants. We ensure your data is properly tagged and structured so tools like Power BI Copilot can give accurate, hallucination-free answers.

Support Icon

User Enablement & Adoption

The best tool is useless if nobody uses it. We provide hands-on training and “data literacy” workshops to help your business teams master self-service analytics.

With us, modernization isn’t just an upgrade; it’s a data culture shift.

OUR STEPS

A Clearer Path Forward – Our BI Modernization Services

Legacy BI Migration

We securely migrate your dashboards and data models from legacy systems (SAP, IBM Cognos, Oracle) to modern cloud platforms like Power BI.

Outcome:
You eliminate expensive legacy maintenance costs and gain a modern, agile platform that scales with your business.
Power BI & Data Warehouse Implementation

We design and deploy your new Microsoft analytics environment, configuring everything from the data warehouse to the final visualization layer (Power BI) for maximum speed.

Outcome:
A unified, enterprise-grade analytics platform that integrates seamlessly with the tools your team uses every day.
Report Consolidation & Cleanup

We analyze your thousands of existing reports to identify duplicates and unused assets. We consolidate them into a smaller set of high-impact, standardized dashboards.

Outcome:
A simplified, clean reporting environment where users can actually find what they need without getting lost in the noise.
Semantic Layer Development

We build a “single source of truth” for your metrics. We define business logic centrally so that Revenue, Churn, and Profit are calculated exactly the same way across every report.


Outcome:
Total consistency. No more meetings where Sales and Finance argue about whose numbers are right.
AI & Copilot Readiness

We assess your data quality and structure to determine if it’s ready for Generative AI. We implement the necessary governance and metadata to make your data “AI-readable.”

Outcome:
You unlock the ability to use next-gen tools like Power BI Copilot, allowing users to ask questions in plain English and get instant, accurate visual answers.

    FAQ

    Frequently Asked Questions about BI Modernization

    Contact us

    Can you automate the migration of our reports?

    Yes, to a large extent. We use migration accelerators and AI tools to automatically extract metadata and logic from your legacy reports. However, we also use this opportunity to “rationalize” (clean up) your portfolio, so some manual review is always part of a high-quality process.

    What is a “Semantic Layer” and why do I need one?

    A semantic layer is like a translator. It sits between your raw data and your business users. It translates complex database table names into business terms like “Revenue” or “Customer.” It ensures that everyone in the company is using the exact same definition for every metric, preventing confusion.

    Will my team need retraining?

    Yes, but modern tools are designed to be intuitive. We provide comprehensive training programs to help your “power users” learn to build their own reports and help your general business users learn how to navigate and filter dashboards to find their own answers.
