| Microsoft | Legacy | Microsoft Power BI | Analytics and BI | Analytics and BI | n/a | 2016 | 2018 |
In 2016, SGS International deployed Microsoft Power BI as part of a broader move to Microsoft cloud services and Office 365. SGS International implemented Microsoft Power BI within its Analytics and BI strategy to extend self-service reporting alongside an Office 365 rollout that covered 2,300 email users worldwide, aiming to bring Power BI capabilities to both Mac and PC users.
Microsoft Power BI was positioned to deliver dashboards and self-service analytics for finance, the IT help desk, and marketing. Configuration and functional emphasis included data visualization, ad hoc reporting, and business team access to create and consume dashboards, consistent with standard Analytics and BI workflows. The company planned to go live with a forthcoming Power BI version that would enable parity of capabilities for Mac and PC users.
The deployment integrated Microsoft Power BI with Office 365 and broader Microsoft cloud services including Azure, a combination SGS used to reduce on-premises infrastructure and costs. Office 365 features such as Lync Online were cited as examples of cloud services that keep users up-to-date without manual updates, and Power BI was delivered in the same cloud-centered environment to enable access from anywhere without requiring VPN. Operational coverage extended across SGS International’s global user base and core business functions tied to reporting and collaboration.
Governance oriented around a self-service business intelligence model, shifting routine report creation to business teams while freeing IT to focus on innovation and strategic projects. Explicit outcomes reported include lower infrastructure costs, faster access to new Office functionality, improved collaboration and productivity, and a plan to broaden BI adoption through dashboards for finance, IT help desk, and marketing. The Microsoft Power BI deployment is therefore framed as a cloud-first Analytics and BI implementation designed to standardize business intelligence access across the enterprise.
