HOUSTON, Oct. 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — EPC Group, a trusted Microsoft Gold Partner with over 27 years of experience and a leader in Power BI consulting, today announced its advanced solutions for integrating Microsoft 365 Copilot within Microsoft Fabric. This enables businesses to generate AI-powered, on-demand reports in Power BI, significantly enhancing their data analysis capabilities. EPC Group was just named the Leader in G2’s “Grid for Business Intelligence (BI) Consulting Providers – Fall 2024,” as one of North America’s top Power BI consulting firms.

With Copilot in Fabric, users can ask questions in natural language and receive instant reports with relevant visualizations and insights. This eliminates the need for manual report creation and enables agile data exploration.

“Simply asking Power BI a question and watching it build reports in real-time is a complete game changer,” said Errin O’Connor, EPC Group’s Founder and Chief AI Architect. “It allows our clients to make real-time decisions based on any market condition or variable—and even reverse engineer successes or challenges. Seeing how the numbers tell the story and empower clients to understand their data fully.”

Real-time Reporting in Power BI with Copilot and Fabric is a CFO or Marketing Director’s Dream

For today’s CFOs and Marketing Directors, making swift, data-driven decisions is critical to navigating dynamic market conditions. Microsoft 365 Copilot and Fabric within Power BI have revolutionized this process, providing the ability to instantly drill down into customer segments, sales patterns, and key performance indicators without requiring lengthy manual report-building processes.

Imagine the power of asking Power BI, “What are the primary drivers behind our highest repeat customer segments?” Within seconds, Copilot builds an interactive report with all relevant visuals, allowing users to dive deep into variables affecting customer loyalty. In one click, you could discover that spa bookings or sports equipment rentals are the top factors influencing repeat visits, just as easily as filtering data for insights on which regions outperform others in retention.

With this functionality, Copilot’s real-time, AI-driven analytics allow CFOs to spot key financial influencers and adjust revenue strategies instantly. Marketing Directors can drill down into granular data points to understand what product categories drive the highest customer engagement. Users can customize the report format, making it consistent with existing dashboards, and even add dynamic narrative summaries, which update automatically with refreshed data or new filters.

Real-time Reporting in Power BI with Copilot and Fabric: This is Next Level Stuff

As Errin O’Connor, EPC Group’s Founder puts it: “Being able to simply ask Power BI a question and watch it build reports in real-time is a complete game changer. This level of insight lets our clients make real-time decisions based on any market variable and empowers them to reverse engineer both successes and challenges—it’s just incredible to see how the numbers tell the story.”

Copilot’s capabilities allow CFOs to visualize trends over time with just a few clicks, such as switching a line chart to a ribbon chart to better highlight sales growth trends. For marketing professionals, the ability to add targeted narrative summaries that highlight key insights—complete with citations from within the report—means teams can instantly understand and act on the data, removing the traditional delays associated with static reports.

With Copilot and Fabric, business leaders no longer need days or hours to create comprehensive reports. Instead, they can produce powerful, insightful reports in minutes, empowering teams to make informed decisions that drive results.
