Project overview

The dashboard starts with portfolio KPIs and lets users filter into individual projects to review status and health indicators.

The problem

Construction leaders need a fast way to understand portfolio health and move from the overall signal into the projects driving it.

The approach

Designed a Power BI experience with a clear KPI hierarchy, interactive filters, and project-level detail for review and prioritization.

Implemented systems

  • Portfolio-level KPIs and portfolio health analysis
  • Project Detail reporting for focused operational review
  • Slicers, filtering, and project status reporting
  • DAX measures for portfolio and project-level indicators
