How We Work

Structured delivery, every engagement

The same disciplined framework behind our enterprise migrations: documented, validated, and led by senior expertise from start to finish.

1

Assess

Inventory every report, data source, and dependency. Usage analysis identifies what actually matters.

2

Rationalize

Retire duplicates and unused reports. Typically 30 to 50 percent never need migrating.

3

Modernize

Rebuild on Power BI and Fabric with governed semantic models and validated outputs.

4

Govern

Workspaces, row-level security, certified datasets, and documented standards.

5

Enable

Training and handover so your team owns the platform, not a vendor.

Common Questions

Power BI Consulting FAQ

How do engagements work?

Three modes: fixed-fee projects for defined scopes, retainers for ongoing development and support, and hourly advisory. Most clients start with a small fixed scope to test the fit.

Can you rescue an existing Power BI estate?

Yes, it is common work: slow models, DAX sprawl, and workspace chaos get a structured review, a prioritized fix list, and hands-on remediation.

Do you work alongside internal teams?

Constantly. We build with your team, document as we go, and run enablement so capability stays in-house when the engagement ends.

What industries do you cover?

Healthcare, government, utilities, retail, manufacturing, and financial services, with enterprise-scale reporting experience across all of them.

How we run Power BI consulting engagements

Prolytix is a Vancouver, BC–based Power BI and Microsoft Fabric consultancy that delivers Power BI data models, governance, and legacy-BI migrations for clients across Canada, the US, and the UK.

Power BI succeeds or fails on foundations most dashboards never show: semantic model design, refresh architecture, security and governance. Our consulting practice is senior-led — the people who scope your engagement build it — and every engagement leaves your team able to maintain what we ship.

Engagement types

Semantic model design and rescue. The most common call we get: reports are slow, numbers disagree between dashboards, refreshes fail at 7 a.m. We rebuild models as proper star schemas with centralized DAX measure libraries — typically cutting model size 50–80% and query times to sub-second.

Legacy migration. Crystal Reports, SSRS, Cognos, BusinessObjects, Tableau and Qlik estates moved onto governed Power BI, validated side by side. Rationalization first: you migrate the reports the business uses, not the archive.

Governance and adoption. Workspace topology, deployment pipelines, certified datasets, row-level security, capacity monitoring and a self-service enablement path so the analyst community builds on certified models instead of exporting to Excel.

Embedded and paginated reporting. Customer-facing analytics via Power BI Embedded, and operational documents — invoices, statements, regulatory forms — as paginated reports.

What working with us looks like

Week 1: free assessment — we review your estate, usage and pain points and give you a written findings-and-roadmap document whether or not you engage us. Weeks 2–3: foundation sprint — model design, workspace and security architecture agreed and prototyped. Weeks 4+: delivery in weekly increments with business sign-off, paired with your team for knowledge transfer. No black boxes, no offshore hand-offs, no 40-page statements of work for a two-week problem.

Frequently asked questions

What does Power BI consulting cost? We quote fixed prices per outcome after the free assessment rather than open-ended day rates. Small model-rescue engagements start in the low five figures CAD; migration programs are priced from the rationalized report count, not the raw inventory.

Do you work remotely? Yes — we serve clients across Canada, the United States and the United Kingdom remotely, with on-site options in the Vancouver area.

Can you work with our existing data warehouse? Yes. Power BI layers over SQL Server, Azure, Snowflake, Oracle, PostgreSQL and flat-file estates. Where no warehouse exists, we implement a right-sized lakehouse on Microsoft Fabric.

Do you hand over documentation? Always: model documentation, measure definitions, refresh runbooks and a governance guide are deliverables on every engagement, plus recorded handover sessions for your team.

How senior are the people doing the work? The consultants on your project have 10+ years in Microsoft BI. We are deliberately small: no bait-and-switch between the sales call and the delivery team.
