Accountability model
Roles, owners, permissions and decision paths for data, models, reports and the platform.
ENTERPRISE GOVERNANCE · ROLES · ADOPTION
Control without blocking valuable self-service analytics.
We design enterprise governance for Power BI and Fabric: accountability, platform settings, security, standards, lifecycle management and the support model for users and delivery teams.
Situations and scope of work
WHEN IT HELPS
Does this sound familiar?
- Workspaces, permissions and sharing are growing without a common model.
- Ownership of data, models, reports, cost and support is unclear.
- Self-service analytics creates value but also duplication, risk and rising cost.
- Tenant settings and Fabric capacity are managed reactively without agreed criteria.
- The technology is live, but users lack the support, rules and capabilities required to use it well.
SCOPE OF WORK
What the engagement may include.
- 01
Assessment of Power BI and Fabric tenant settings, risks and organisational requirements.
- 02
Workspace, domain, role, ownership and accountability models.
- 03
Security, sharing, classification, endorsement and certification of content.
- 04
Design standards, naming, documentation and quality criteria.
- 05
Development, test and production environments, version control and release lifecycle.
- 06
Monitoring of usage, refreshes, Fabric capacity, quality and cost.
- 07
Support model, mentoring, operational guidance, community of practice and adoption measures.
SOLUTION COMPONENTS
Governance as an operating model, not a list of restrictions.
Controls work when they have owners, can be measured and reflect how business and IT actually deliver analytics.
Controlled lifecycle
Standards, environments, quality gates, certification and monitoring from idea through production support.
Adoption and enablement
Support, mentoring, guidance and a community of practice embedded in the platform operating model.
OUTCOME
What remains after the engagement.
- Lower risk and explicit accountability for the platform and published content.
- A shorter path from business need to a trusted and secure solution.
- Better visibility of usage, quality, capacity and cost.
- A team able to use and evolve the platform according to shared rules.
