Most Power BI consulting companies make fatal mistakes:

  • Deploying generic sales dashboards to shop floors
  • Overloading teams with 50+ irrelevant KPIs
  • Leaving managers stranded without training

✅ Speak OEE, SMED, and scrap rates like native language

✅ Prioritize actionable metrics over vanity data

✅ Embed directly with your floor managers
