Holmes Systems

One definition of revenue. Everywhere.

Power BI works when its semantic model is treated as a product — star schemas, governed relationships, and measures your business can reuse with confidence.

Fix the model underneath the dashboard

01

Star schema design

Facts, dimensions, and grain defined clearly so reports stay understandable as the model grows.

02

KPI standardization

Finance, Sales, and Operations agree on the metric definition before it appears in a visual.

03

Relationship design

Cross-filter behavior and security rules configured deliberately rather than discovered in production.

04

Performance tuning

Models and measures streamlined so users do not wait for every slice and refresh.

Built above a governed data layer

The point is not to replace every operational system. It is to make the data they produce reliable, connected, and usable in one place.

  3. 03

    Migrate high-value reports and train the team on extending the model safely.

Common questions

Can you fix a report without rebuilding everything?+

Often, yes. The discovery work identifies whether the issue is a measure, a relationship, a data refresh, or the entire model layer.

Do you build dashboards too?+

Yes, but the priority is the model below them. A polished dashboard cannot compensate for undefined metrics or unreliable inputs.
