Success Factors of Power BI Implementation

Rhythm within the MT

One of the key success factors is establishing a tight reporting rhythm in the MT. By pulling out the Power BI dashboards every week and looking at the same numbers in Power BI. This is how you spot trends, come up with new questions and set an example for the organization.

Scrum methodology

By working iteratively using the scrum methodology, you develop value every sprint. Feedback loops are smaller, users are engaged, resulting in Power BI dashboards better aligning with business questions.

Involve key stakeholders

Involve key stakeholders right from the start of the Power BI implementation. This ensures minimal frictions when setting up processes. More importantly, it ensures engagement in the Power BI project and ownership of the end result.

Don't stumble on data quality

The right order is: first start implementing Power BI and then improve data quality. This is an ongoing improvement process. In our experience, implementing Power BI actually speeds up this process. Conversely, it constitutes a blocker.

Document it well!

Proper Power BI documentation saves a lot of time and money in the long run. You avoid single-points-of-failure, remain independent of your BI vendors, and new people can quickly onboard on projects.

Developmemt team is of critical

You never want to work with a development team that gets to work on a Power BI implementation without asking questions. Critical developers want to know exactly how the business works and why behind the Power BI project.

Insight leads to new questions

Almost always, the (new) Power BI dashboards lead to new questions. Therefore, remain in contact with users during and after Power BI deployment for important optimization successes of Power BI dashboards.

The Product Owner

Every Power BI implementation and Power BI project stands or falls with a good product owner. Someone who understands the business as well as the technology. A good product owner leads the Power BI implementation and coordinates between the business and the development team.
