Every industry application creates data, let's use it.
Professional Services
Focus on your people with deeper data insights. It doesn’t matter if your firm specializes in consulting, legal services, real estate services or healthcare. Your business moves around people. You need to monitor performance with the right KPIs to maximize results and increase efficiency. You need to share that data with your people to act quickly and improve results.
Power BI allows you to monitor the right KPIs, personalize them, visualize for better understanding and share them, all on the same platform. Calculate live metrics such as annual revenue per employee, project margin, billings, utilization and customer satisfaction to gain insights from your performance and take action on challenges. Drill down to the individual level and let everyone in your organization be empowered by data while keeping it secure and governed.


Retail
Deeper understanding of customers, pricing, POS, inventory and channels. The amount of data available for retailers is overwhelming: transactions, supply chain, buying behaviors, trends, multi-channel sales and global coverage are just a few of the data sources companies can use to maximize their profits.
With Power BI, it doesn’t matter where you are, your data is always available and up date. Understand customer behavior and sentiment, online or in-store, and visualize shopper movements and interactions, identifying opportunities to better serve them and maximize revenue.
Manufacturing
Real time visibility into your supply chain for more efficient and faster decisions. Track key performance indicators in real time: machine utilization, process efficiency, costs, inventory levels, losses and cycle times.
Power BI helps your team monitor real time data from multiple sources into one dashboard and drill down to identify issues when necessary. Get real time alerts with Power BI mobile apps and make your operations more efficient to achieve greater agility and minimize response times.


Energy
Storing energy is not cost-effective, so utilities and power generators need to forecast future power consumption so that they can efficiently balance the supply with the demand. During peak hours, short supply can result in power outages. Conversely, too much supply can result in waste of resources. Advanced demand forecasting techniques detail hourly demand and peak hours for a particular day, allowing an energy provider to optimize the power generation process. This report focuses on demand forecasting within the energy sector. The report provides region level energy usage status and forecast of future usage for optimizing the operations.
Insurance
Monitor risk, manage sales and claims, and detect fraud with visual data driven analysis. Managing risk is the most important goal for insurance companies. But the amount of data and variables that go into insurance analytics is huge and needs tools and approaches that help insurance professionals to quickly identify trends and act on them.
Power BI helps insurance analysts to visualize claims, premiums, fraud, sales and customer satisfaction data with ease and in one place. Spot claims and payment trends faster.


Public Sector
Education, health, Small Business, Climate Change, Economics. Public Sector data is available via various sources online. Most of these data sources are free as well.
