Case Study
ESCO, a prominent engineering and product firm, needed to streamline its project management process and enhance insights for project tracking and resource allocation. Advisicon delivered a Power BI reporting solution that transformed ESCO’s ability to consolidate data and empower project managers with actionable insights.
Business Situation
ESCO’s reliance on Microsoft Planner for managing multiple projects was hindered by limited data centralization and reporting capabilities. This made it challenging for project managers to assess progress and allocate resources efficiently. The company needed a solution that would allow project managers to analyze Planner data meaningfully to inform decision-making.
Solution Delivered
Advisicon implemented Power BI as the optimal reporting tool, leveraging ESCO’s existing familiarity with Power BI across other business areas. We provided an initial, customizable Power BI report tailored for Planner Projects and integrated it into ESCO’s environment. This “report pack” was then customized to reflect ESCO’s unique style, followed by the addition of advanced visuals and report pages that met specific reporting requirements. Throughout the process, Advisicon conducted multiple training sessions, enabling ESCO’s team to independently update and manage reports, covering essential Power BI concepts and hands-on application.
Benefits Received
- Delivered a suite of customized Power BI reports, consolidating project data for effective tracking and resource allocation.
- Empowered ESCO’s project managers with the skills to create, update, and customize their own reports, fostering greater independence and data-driven decision-making.
The Company Today
ESCO’s project managers now actively use Power BI to create customized reports, supporting a culture of data-driven decision-making and enhancing overall project efficiency.
