Turn data into insights
Transform your reporting with Business Intelligence
Making strategic decisions with scattered, unreliable, or manually processed data leads to inefficiencies and missed opportunities. At Altesia, we leverage Power BI and Power Query to centralize and clean your data and automate your reporting, giving you real-time, reliable, and insightful dashboards to drive your business forward.
What is Business Intelligence?
Business Intelligence (BI) refers to the technologies, processes, and tools that help businesses collect, analyze, and visualize data to support decision-making. By transforming raw data into actionable insights, BI enables organizations to optimize performance, identify trends, and make informed strategic decisions. Instead of relying on intuition, companies equipped with BI solutions can base their strategies on real-time, data-driven evidence.
What is Power Query?
Power Query is a data transformation tool within Microsoft Excel and Power BI that allows users to connect, clean, and reshape data from multiple sources. It automates repetitive data preparation tasks, ensuring that data is always accurate, structured, and ready for analysis. By eliminating manual errors and inefficiencies, Power Query significantly speeds up the data processing workflow.
What is Power BI?
Power BI is Microsoft’s industry-leading data visualization and business intelligence platform. It allows businesses to create interactive dashboards and reports that offer a real-time, 360-degree view of their operations. Power BI uses multiple data sources, enabling organizations to track KPIs, analyze trends, and generate insightful reports for finance, procurement, operations, and beyond.
Why use Business Intelligence in Finance, Procurement, and other support functions?
✔Business Intelligence in Finance
Finance teams handle massive volumes of data, from budgeting and forecasting to cash flow management. BI tools like Power BI and Power Query allow CFOs and finance professionals to automate financial reporting, detect anomalies, forecast trends, and gain deep visibility into company performance, ensuring accurate and timely decision-making.
✔ Business Intelligence in Procurement
Procurement professionals need clear insights into supplier performance, cost management, and contract compliance. BI solutions help procurement teams centralize supplier data, analyze spending patterns, and optimize sourcing strategies to improve cost efficiency and risk management.
✔ Business Intelligence in other business functions
Beyond finance and procurement, BI enhances decision-making in HR, sales, marketing, operations, and supply chain management. From tracking employee performance to optimizing marketing campaigns or monitoring inventory levels, BI tools ensure every department has data-driven insights to improve efficiency and strategy.

Errors, inconsistencies, and lack of validation lead to poor decision-making.
Your teams spend hours compiling reports instead of analyzing business performance.
