Business Intelligence Dashboards
Use advanced data insights to make great business decisions
Harnessing the power of data in a single view
Typical challenges that many companies face today is access to centralised company information from all available data sources that can provide critical business insights in real time. Some years back this was extremely difficult to achieve but thankfully due to new software advances from large and specialised software vendors, the challenge is less to do with the software and the centralisation of data and more to do with what information and views provide the most valuable insights to your business managers.
All to do with improved business decisions!
Business intelligence means harnessing the insights and representing them in a meaningful way. Furthermore, it means having the tools to uncover the reasons for the trends observed. These are two of the four tiers of analytics – the Descriptive stage and the Diagnostic stage.
Principa’s Business Intelligence Offering
As a Microsoft® Gold Partner, we primarily work with Microsoft® Power BI – a leading tool in business intelligence; however, we pride ourselves in being software agnostic and have done many projects using other specialised tools available in the market.
For us, our real skills lie in our analytics expertise and the experience that we have gained over 22 years of working in multiple industries, across different areas of business.
Our understanding of the data elements and how best to present them in an intuitive way sets us apart from our competitors.
The solution can be built on a cloud platform or on premise, this being dependant on the client’s IT infrastructure and requirements.

A Typical Engagement
The creation of BI dashboards is primarily a service engagement as we seldom procure software on behalf of our clients. In many cases, our clients have a Microsoft licensing agreement that gives them access to Microsoft Power BI as part of their overall company licensing agreement but in the absence of these arrangements, the client is responsible for procuring the necessary software licenses.
- A typical sales request will involve the following:
- Our specialists will engage with business users’ owners to get a better understanding of what the solution requirement entails. This allows the consultants to get an overall view of the data that is available and the complexities involved when accessing the data on an ongoing basis.
- We will document your requirements along with our proposed solution in a proposal.
- If successful we will allocate a project manager who will act as a go between yourselves and the team. We will require access to data in order to build out the dashboards. Our consultants work both onsite and offsite dependant on client requirements.
- The BI outcome will be presented to the client as part of a project plan with the goal of collaborating when required.
