What we have fixed
for real clients

These are real engagements. Every problem below came in as a support request or a brief.

Healthcare / WA
Healthcare Power BI staffing dashboard
01 / Healthcare

Roster report refreshing for 45 minutes. Clinic managers had stopped trusting the numbers.

A WA health provider's daily staffing report took 45 minutes each morning. Totals were inconsistent across date filters. We rebuilt the model relationships, rewrote the DAX measures, and reconciled the totals.

Executive Reporting
Executive board reporting Power BI dashboard
02 / Executive

Dashboard visuals went blank two days before a board presentation. Nobody knew why.

An executive team's board pack dashboard stopped rendering entirely. Cross-filters were broken, numbers did not reconcile. Board meeting was in 48 hours. We diagnosed, restored, and documented the same day.

Operations / Resources
Operations automation Power BI dashboard
03 / Operations

Scheduled refreshes failed every morning after an infrastructure change. Three weeks of manual exports.

Credential drift combined with a misconfigured gateway caused daily refresh failures. The team had been manually exporting data as a workaround. We diagnosed the gateway, reconfigured credentials, and restored automation.

Enterprise / Security

04 / Enterprise

Report took minutes to load. Row-level security was blocking the wrong users.

An enterprise report was slow and the RLS configuration was blocking authorized users while granting access to others. We audited the model, corrected role assignments, optimized queries, and documented the workspace.

Who we work with

Is Ultron the right fit for you?

We are a good fit if...
  • Your Power BI reports take more than a few minutes to refresh and nobody knows why
  • You inherited a dashboard from a previous developer that errors, shows wrong totals, or no one understands
  • A scheduled refresh failed this morning and your team is exporting data manually as a workaround
  • You need a new dashboard built once, built properly, without scope creep and disappearing freelancers
  • You work in healthcare, resources, government, or logistics and data access and security are non-negotiable
  • You need someone who will pick up the phone in Perth time, not log a ticket in another hemisphere
We are probably not the right fit if...
  • You need something built today from a pre-made template with no customization
  • Your primary concern is getting the lowest possible price with no quality expectation
  • You need Tableau, Looker, or QlikSense expertise rather than the Microsoft data stack
  • You have no access to the data source and expect us to generate the data as well as the reports
Not sure if you are in the right place? Call us on 1300 967 494 and we will tell you honestly within five minutes.
The team

The people doing
the actual work

A small, deliberate team. Senior people on every engagement, not account managers relaying messages to someone you will never meet.

What we do

Four services.
One team.

The same people who design your model build the dashboard, tune the performance, and pick up the phone when something breaks.

Talk to us

Looking to hire a Power BI consultant or developer? Most clients have a fixed-price proposal within 48 hours.

Dashboard Development & Implementation

Full Power BI implementation from scratch, or new dashboards added to an existing environment. Executive, operational, and finance layouts with interactive drill-downs, bookmarks, and mobile support that make data useful, not just visible.

Executive reportingDrill-throughMobile layoutBookmarksPaginated reports

Data Modelling and DAX

Star schema design, clean Power Query transforms, and DAX measures that calculate correctly at every filter context. If your numbers look wrong or change unexpectedly, this is usually why.

Star schemaPower QueryDAX measuresDataverseSQL Server

Performance Optimization & Migration

Reports that take 10, 20, 45 minutes to refresh are a model or query problem, not a Power BI limitation. We fix slow reports and migrate Power BI environments from Excel, Tableau, or other legacy BI tools — without rebuilding from scratch.

Refresh tuningQuery optimizationMigrate from ExcelMigrate from TableauGateway setup

Broken Report Support

Inherited a report that errors, refreshes randomly, or shows wrong numbers? We document what exists, find the root cause, and fix it. Usually faster and cheaper than starting fresh.

Why Ultron

Reasons clients come back
and refer others

We diagnose before we quote

Most broken reports do not need a rebuild. We find the root cause first. If a targeted fix resolves it, that is what we charge for.

No handoffs, no outsourcing

The person on your first call is the same expert doing the work. No account managers, no offshore team working behind the scenes.

Full stack, not just the front end

Power BI, Dataverse, Dynamics 365, SQL Server, Azure. Most dashboard problems start in the data layer, not the visual layer.

Security done properly

Row-level security, workspace governance, and access controls built correctly from day one. We work with government and ASX-listed clients who cannot compromise on this.

You own the outcome

Clean code, documentation, and knowledge transfer so your team can maintain what we built. No dependency on us to keep the lights on, unless you want that.

Australian. No excuses.

Perth-based, Australian time zones. When something goes wrong, you reach a person who knows your project and can act immediately.

Why not the alternatives?

Ultron vs. the
other options

Most Power BI problems get sent to an internal hire who is stretched, an offshore freelancer who disappears, or a large agency that charges enterprise rates. Here is how that plays out.

Internal BI hire Offshore freelancer Ultron Developments Recommended
Cost $90K–$130K salary per year, plus super and onboarding Low day rate but unpredictable total. Scope creep is common. Fixed price, scoped before you commit. You know the number before work starts.
Time to start 6–12 weeks to hire, plus ramp-up time 1–2 weeks but briefing takes longer remotely Same week. Free call today, proposal within 48 hours.
Availability Office hours only. One person. Timezone gap. You write at 9am, they reply at 6pm. Perth time. Pick up the phone. The person who built it answers it.
Microsoft stack depth One person, one skillset. Gaps are common. Varies widely. Hard to verify before you pay. Power BI, Azure, Dataverse, Dynamics 365, SQL Server. Full stack, senior team.
Accountability Internal politics. Hard to enforce delivery. Freelancers go quiet mid-project. No fixed-price contract. Fixed-price contract. Deliverables defined. You do not pay for surprises.
When it is over Knowledge walks out the door when they leave. Re-brief from scratch next time. Documentation and knowledge transfer included. Your team can maintain what we built.

Common questions

Things people ask
before they reach out

We always diagnose first. Most refresh failures, slow reports, and inherited messes do not require a full rebuild. We tell you exactly what the problem is before we quote. If a targeted fix resolves it, that is all we do. A rebuild is only recommended when it is genuinely the better option, and we explain why with specifics before you commit.
Broken report fixes are often resolved within 2 to 5 business days once we have access to the environment. New dashboard builds typically take 2 to 4 weeks depending on the number of data sources and views required. We give you a specific timeline in your fixed-price proposal before any work starts.
SQL Server, Azure SQL, Azure Data Lake, Excel, SharePoint, Dynamics 365, Dataverse, Snowflake, and most standard connectors Power BI supports. If you have a non-standard source, mention it when you reach out and we will confirm during the call.
We can work with read-only access or anonymised data for development. All engagements are covered by a confidentiality agreement. We work with WA Government health services and resources sector clients whose data security requirements are non-negotiable. We follow your IT security policy.
At minimum, Power BI Pro for anyone sharing or viewing reports. We advise on licensing as part of your consultation, including whether Premium Per User or Power BI Embedded makes more sense for your scale.
Yes. Post-launch support is included in standard engagements. We also offer retainer arrangements for clients who want ongoing development capacity. If something breaks after go-live, you reach us directly, not a helpdesk queue.
Fixed-price only. After your free consultation, you receive a scoped proposal with a clear dollar amount and timeline before any work begins. No hourly rates, no surprise invoices. To give you a rough sense: targeted broken report fixes typically run $1,500 to $5,000. Custom dashboard builds range from $5,000 to $25,000 depending on the number of data sources, reports, and complexity of the model. Performance overhauls and migrations vary widely. We will tell you exactly what yours will cost after the free call.

The data is there.
It should not take 45 minutes to see it.
