Power BI & Fabric Review

Why your Power BI numbers disagree, and how to fix the model in two weeks.

A fixed-fee assessment of your semantic models, workspace governance, and Fabric capacity. You get a prioritised remediation list and a target architecture built on a single source of truth.

Who it's for

  • Your dashboards disagree with each other and no one trusts the numbers.
  • Power BI or Fabric capacity costs are rising and you cannot see why.
  • Reports have sprawled across workspaces with no governance model.
  • You are migrating from Power BI Premium to Fabric capacity and no one can tell you what changes for the reports already in production.
  • A new report request means someone builds a new model from scratch, because nobody can find or trust the model that already exists.

Scope and format

Two weeks, remote. We review your semantic models and DAX, your workspace and gateway setup, your refresh and capacity usage, and your data integration on Azure SQL and Data Factory. Led by a senior Microsoft Fabric and Power BI architect. We open the models in Tabular Editor and DAX Studio for the audit, not only the Power BI service UI, so hidden measures and unused columns surface too.

What you get

Semantic model audit

Where your models diverge, duplicate, or break the single source of truth, with the fixes.

Capacity and cost review

Where Fabric or Premium capacity is being spent, and what you can reclaim. We read the spend from the Fabric Capacity Metrics app, not the invoice total, so you see which workspace or refresh is driving the bill.

Workspace governance model

A workspace, gateway, and access structure your team can run.

Row-level security check

Every RLS role tested against a sample user in each group, so who can see what is verified, not assumed from the role definitions.

Refresh and gateway diagnostic

Where refreshes fail, time out, or run longer than the capacity should allow, traced to the dataset, gateway, or data source causing it.

Prioritised remediation list

Every finding ranked by impact and effort.

Target Fabric architecture

A reference design for ingestion, modelling, and reporting on one source of truth.

Pricing

A fixed fee of €6,500.

Creditable in full against a follow-on engagement booked within eight weeks.

Where your data sits

A remote review with read access to the workspaces and capacity in scope. No data leaves your tenant, and we sign your data processing agreement before kickoff.

Governance & compliance

  • Read access scoped to the workspaces in review.
  • A signed data processing agreement before kickoff.
  • Findings documented for your data governance records.

Common questions

How long does it take?

Two weeks.

Power BI, Fabric, or both?

Both. The review covers your Power BI semantic models and the Fabric platform they run on.

Do you fix it too?

The fee is creditable against the follow-on build if you book within eight weeks.

Who actually does the work?

A senior Microsoft Fabric and Power BI architect, from the first call through the final findings. No handoff to a different team partway through.

What if our report count is higher than we said in the form?

The fixed fee covers the workspaces we agree on, not a report count. The number in the form only helps us plan the two weeks; if the estate turns out bigger once we look, we tell you before kickoff, not after.

What if we do not book the build within eight weeks?

The review findings do not expire, and you can still commission the Power BI & Fabric Platform Build later. The €6,500 fee only credits against it if you book within the eight-week window.

Do you audit the DAX itself, or just the workspace setup?

Both. We open the models in Tabular Editor and DAX Studio to check measures, relationships, and query performance, not only the workspace and gateway configuration.

What if we are mid-migration from Premium to Fabric capacity?

We assess the migration plan itself as part of the review: what changes for existing reports, what capacity sizing is realistic, and where the cutover risk actually sits.

Do you test row-level security?

Yes. We test each RLS role against a sample user rather than reading the role definitions and assuming they work as written.

Can you review reports built by an agency or a departed employee?

That is the most common starting point. We do not need the original builder present. The audit works from the model and workspace as they exist today.

What happens to reports we do not include in scope?

They stay outside the review and the fixed fee. If a pattern from an in-scope model also affects an out-of-scope report, we flag it, but do not audit it in depth.
