Spreadsheets needed
The problems we fix.
Reports built by hand every week
Analysts spending Monday morning copying data from five systems into a spreadsheet. The report is stale before it lands in inboxes.
No single view of the operation
Workforce data in one system, financial data in another, compliance in a third. No one can see the full picture without a manual consolidation exercise.
Decisions made on gut feel
Leaders making resource, cost, and operational decisions without live data. Errors that could have been caught early become expensive problems.
How we deliver it.
01
Data discovery
We map your source systems, assess data quality, and identify what exists vs. what you actually need. No assumptions, no guesses.
02
Data model
We build the semantic model that connects your sources correctly, with relationships, measures, and calculated fields that produce accurate numbers.
03
Dashboard design
Dashboards built for the decisions your leaders need to make, not generic templates. Reviewed and iterated before final build.
04
Deploy and train
Dashboards deployed to your Power BI workspace. Data refreshes configured. Staff trained. Documentation handed over.
What's included.
Operational dashboards
Live views of workforce, cost, compliance, and service delivery, updated automatically from your source systems.
Workforce cost modelling
Labour cost dashboards with overtime analysis, roster variance, and budget-vs-actual tracking at site, region, and enterprise level.
Compliance and risk reporting
Automated compliance dashboards that surface risk-rated records, incident trends, and regulatory metrics without manual assembly.
Financial and P&L analytics
Revenue, cost, margin, and funding dashboards connected to your finance systems. Live, not end-of-month.
Microsoft Fabric and data warehouse
For organisations needing a full data platform, we design and build Microsoft Fabric architectures that consolidate all operational data.

Natural language queries and AI-generated insights built into your dashboards. Ask a question, get an answer from your live data.
Why Human Nexus.
We model the data correctly first
Most Power BI projects fail because the data model is wrong. We fix the foundation before building the dashboard.
Built on your real data
Not sample data, not mock-ups. Every dashboard is built and tested against your actual operational data sources.
We quantify the problem
We have built workforce cost models that identified $430K per fortnight in avoidable cost. Dashboards that drive decisions have to show the right numbers.
All source systems connected
Payroll, rostering, compliance, ERP, CRM. We connect whatever you have and consolidate it into one view.
Sydney-based team
All consulting done by our team in Australia. You work directly with the analyst building your dashboards.
Your team owns the dashboards
Documentation, training, and full access to the Power BI workspace. Your team can build new reports after handover.
Proof of work
Workforce cost data that moved a number.
Human Nexus built workforce cost models for large Australian organisations that identified $430K per fortnight in avoidable scheduling cost. The model was built on real payroll and rostering data, and the result was confirmed, not just projected.
$430,000 per fortnight, modelled and confirmed.
Common questions.
How long does a Power BI project take?
A single dashboard connected to one or two data sources is typically live within two to three weeks. Multi-source enterprise dashboards take four to eight weeks depending on data complexity.
How much does Power BI consulting cost?
A single dashboard project typically starts from $8,000 to $20,000. Full data platform and enterprise reporting programmes are quoted as a fixed-scope package after a free scoping session.
Do we need Power BI Premium?
Most organisations start with Power BI Pro ($15/user/month). Premium capacity is only needed for very large datasets or advanced AI features. We advise on the minimum licence required.
Can you connect to our existing systems?
Yes. Power BI connects to SharePoint, SQL Server, Azure, Dataverse, Excel, and most REST APIs. We also build custom data connectors for proprietary systems.
What if our data quality is poor?
Data quality issues are very common and not a blocker. We identify and resolve the most critical data quality issues as part of the data modelling phase.
Can we build our own reports after you leave?
Yes. We train your team to use Power BI Desktop and build new reports. Most organisations have staff creating their own reports within a few weeks of handover.
