Power Bi for Planning Teams

Significant collaboration took place as part of this project through a series of workshops with stakeholders, including planning officers and managers, to ensure that the reports being developed met their respective needs in terms of architecture and interface. The Planning Service worked very closely with the Councils IT team to install data gateways on each areas domain and to create dataflows which are the plumbing in which the data flows to the reports. Power BI is now being utilised elsewhere in the Council as a BI tool, to better utilise and display data held corporately.
