When BI & Analytics Consulting Is the Right Fit

You’re a fit if:

  • Leadership doesn’t trust reporting or forecasts
  • KPI definitions vary by team (“gross margin” has multiple personalities)
  • Reporting is slow, manual, or duplicated across departments
  • Data lives across systems with unclear ownership
  • Dashboards exist, but adoption is low
  • You need better operational visibility and decision speed

What We Do

Onset helps you turn scattered data into reliable insights—by focusing on decisions, metrics, and implementation that fits your environment.

  • Define business-critical KPIs and calculation rules
  • Establish metric ownership and data lineage
  • Create a shared “metric dictionary” teams can follow
  • Executive dashboards for leadership visibility
  • Operational dashboards for day-to-day decisions
  • Role-based reporting aligned to workflows
  • Performance scorecards and trend views
  • Reporting layer design (models, semantic layer, data marts as needed)
  • Data source mapping and consolidation plan
  • Data quality checks and validation approach
  • Lightweight governance that supports consistency
  • Trend and driver analysis (why performance changed)
  • Forecasting and predictive insights (where performance is heading)
  • Anomaly detection and exception reporting (what needs attention now)

We work with common BI and reporting tools and align to your environment—without forcing a platform switch unless there’s a clear ROI.

Our Approach

1. BI & Analytics Assessment

We audit your current dashboards, KPIs, data flows, and reporting pain points.

Outputs:

  • KPI/reporting audit (what’s trusted vs what’s noise)
  • Data source map + quality/ownership gaps
  • Quick wins + prioritized roadmap 

2. Build & Implement

We deliver dashboards and reporting improvements with adoption in mind.

Typical outputs:

  • KPI definitions and measurement standards
  • Dashboard designs and rollout plan
  • Reporting models and data validation approach
  • Training and adoption enablement for stakeholders

3. Optimize & Scale

We expand coverage, improve forecasting, and reduce manual reporting over time.

What You’ll Receive

Depending on scope:

  • KPI dictionary and calculation standards
  • Executive dashboard and role-based reporting pack
  • Data source map and reporting architecture recommendations
  • Data model/semantic layer guidance (as needed)
  • Data validation and quality checks approach
  • Reporting cadence and governance recommendations
  • Adoption plan (training + stakeholder enablement)

Common Use Cases We Support

  • Executive performance dashboards
  • Operational reporting (throughput, backlog, cycle time, SLA visibility)
  • Financial performance and variance reporting
  • Delivery visibility for transformation portfolios (PMO reporting)
  • Forecasting and predictive analytics for planning
  • Exception dashboards for risk, anomalies, and outliers

Why Onset

We build analytics that gets used.
Dashboards fail when they’re disconnected from decisions, overloaded with metrics, or built without governance and trust. We focus on the smallest system that produces reliable insight—then scale it.

FAQ

Usually because KPIs aren’t consistent, the data isn’t trusted, or dashboards don’t match real workflows and decisions. We start by aligning metrics and ownership, then build for adoption.
