Frequently asked questions

Common questions before you hire.

Answers to the questions clients commonly ask before starting a brief.

Still deciding what you need?

Start with the outcome and the context you already have. A polished specification is not required.

Do we need clean data before starting?

Not necessarily. A brief should explain where the data comes from and what you do not trust today. A specialist can scope the cleanup or modelling work needed.

Can Power BI use our existing systems?

Often, yes. Include your accounting, CRM, spreadsheet or operational systems so applicants can assess the available connections.

What should our first dashboard show?

Start with the decisions it needs to support, the people who use it and the few measures they need to see regularly.

How long does a Power BI project take?

A focused dashboard can take a few weeks. Multi-system reporting usually needs more time for data discovery, validation and feedback.

Can a freelancer train our team?

Yes. Ask for a walkthrough, documentation or handover support if your team will maintain reports after launch.

Ready to get moving?

Start with the report, decision or recurring question that is currently hardest to answer.
