One data architect and one business analyst will be leading the project. Below is our proposed timeline which is adjusted based on your needs and expectations.

• Kick-off: A kick-off session for the Assessment & PoC with a general introduction, short presentation of Power BI platform’s capabilities, and followed by creating a schedule for business workshops.
• Week 1: Business workshops to understand the current architecture on Microsoft Azure, business needs & challenges, and defining key parts for the High Level Design document.
• Week 2 – Week 3: Implementing an end-to-end PoC of one Power BI report.
• Week 4: Creating the High Level Design document.
• Close out: Presenting the HLD, reviewing the PoC project, and presenting the recommendations for next steps and for a full-scale implementation.

Depending on your company’s current needs and business use case, we can also conduct additional activities in specific cases:

• Migration plan; if you would like to migrate your current reporting from a different platform to Power BI or from a different cloud to Microsoft Azure.
• Performance checks and list of possible improvements to existing Power BI reporting if you already have an existing Power BI
• Any scenario design and cost management calculation if you would like to request it – for example comparing different licensing plans PRO VS Premium Capacity.
