Power BI dashboards – RAIVS project

Requirement

Network Rail needed an easy-to-use resource management system that provided a visually engaging dashboard.  As the data used within the resource management solution would come from a variety of sources the dashboard needed to be able to integrate seamlessly with the existing technology.

Solution

As the solution used data from a variety of Oracle sources including the Possession Planning System, Delivering Work Within Possessions and Network Rail Online Logistics, the team used the Oracle data access components for Windows to integrate with Microsoft Power BI to produce the dashboard and reports. 

By combining Microsoft Power BI with Oracle, Project were able to develop a solution that gave Network Rail visibility of projects, resource and equipment usage, schedules and outages both at a Regional and a national level.
