Microsoft Power BI

Visualize the Possibilities

At SIS, our BI team works with our specialty construction and project-based clients to create meaningful dashboards that are immersive. SIS also works with Microsoft Dynamics 365 users to extract data from D365 and create high value visual reports. Review our project dashboards below as you learn more about Power BI and what SIS has to offer.

Why Microsoft Power BI?

With Power BI users are able to experience their data. They make sense of their data easily and make quick confident decisions across the business. Users reduce the amount of time spent struggling to pull data together and spend more time with AI insights. Most importantly, Power BI removes the complexity of managing multiple analytics solutions with a single unified platform that gives every user access to insights.

Out of the box report visualizations include Bar and Column Charts, Single or Multi Row Cards, KPIs, Maps, Pie Charts, Q&A Visual, and Tables. SIS can demonstrate a significant number of report visualizations similar to each production dashboard on this page. Each dashboard was created by SIS with Power BI using Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance data along with the SIS Construct 365 Project Cost Management (PCM) Solution. Contact us for a full demonstration of the dashboarding process for businesses with professional service operations.
