The Challenge

Business users wait days or weeks for a report change while the BI team works through a backlog of small requests, and by the time the answer arrives the decision has moved on.

  • 1Report backlogs of days or weeks delay operational decisions
  • 2Non-technical users cannot self-serve and revert to exported spreadsheets
  • 3BI team capacity consumed by small ad-hoc changes

Our Approach

CloudGate prepares governed semantic models in Microsoft Fabric (clean relationships, certified measures, business-friendly naming and synonyms), so that Copilot in Power BI returns answers people can trust.

  • Governed semantic models with certified measures, naming and synonyms tuned for Copilot
  • Copilot in Power BI enabled for natural-language Q&A, visuals and DAX generation
  • Automatic narrative summaries and key-driver explanations on reports
