A specialist division of Orbital Intelligence
Reporting infrastructure that project and commercial teams can trust
We design and build Power Platform solutions grounded in clean data architecture and a governed semantic layer — so the numbers your teams rely on are accurate, consistent and ready for what comes next.
Why foundations first
Most reporting problems are not report problems. They are data model problems, naming problems, or trust problems — and no amount of visual polish will fix them.
Orbital Analytics starts with the semantic layer: the single, governed definition of what your measures mean, how they are calculated, and where the source data lives. When the semantic layer is right, every report built on top of it is consistent by default. When it is wrong — or absent — teams spend more time reconciling numbers than acting on them.
This approach also prepares your data for AI. Large language models, copilots and automated agents all perform better when they can query a well-structured, well-documented semantic layer rather than raw tables. Building your reporting foundations properly today means your data estate is AI-ready when the organisation is.
Services
Power BI Report Development
Interactive dashboards and operational reports designed around how your teams actually make decisions. Built on a governed data model with clear lineage from source to visual.
Semantic Layer and Data Model Design
A single source of truth for your key measures and dimensions. We define, document and implement the semantic layer so every report speaks the same language.
Data Quality Assessment
Before you build, you need to know what you are building on. We assess source data for completeness, consistency, timeliness and fitness for purpose — and give you a practical remediation path.
Power Automate and Workflow Integration
Automated data pipelines, scheduled report distribution, approval workflows and process automation across the Microsoft 365 stack — connecting your reporting layer to the business processes that depend on it.
Our work
A selection of reporting solutions built for real operational environments.
Who we work with
Orbital Analytics is built for organisations where reporting is not a nice-to-have — it is how projects are controlled, how commercial performance is tracked, and how leadership makes decisions.
Our primary clients are project controls teams, commercial managers and finance functions in capital-intensive and project-driven industries. We work across resources, infrastructure, engineering and professional services — anywhere the cost of bad data is measured in delayed decisions and misallocated capital.
Whether you need a single operational dashboard or a full reporting architecture, the engagement scales to fit.
