The Kiosk is not only the representation of cutting edge business solutions, but is also very well designed physical product. The large high-end quality touch screen is mounted on a very stable stainless steel frame. It is characterized by unique and minimalistic design, perfectly complementing both traditional and modern surroundings. It is sturdy, durable and very well put together.
How can the BI Kiosk make my business better?
The main purpose of the Kiosk, what differentiates it from other similar products on the market is it compatibility with the MS Power BI report. It was designed from the ground up with one particular goal in mind – make most of your Power BI reports in the best way possible. You may use it as well as a traditional presentation screen, thanks to its additional HDMI port. So once you don’t need the Power BI capabilities, you may display on the Kiosk whatever you need.
If Lean Management is the philosophy that drives your business, the BI Kiosk is a must have. The implemented Power BI reporting can be available across the organization easier than ever before. You may get to the root cause of the problem on time, every time and take action before it is too late.
Even if you dropped the printing of the KPIs after each shift and now you have messages being spread on the screens, it is probably static. Besides that, the charts need to be prepared manually. With the power BI Kiosk you can create reports fed and refreshed automatically with the company system data and you can make those reports dynamic and interactive, with drill down functions, filtering options and so much more, all that with state of the art security protocols.
Imagine what your business can be like, if you have constant, clear and always up to date information available to directly responsible individuals. Information, that may include:
- Key performance indicators, computed automatically and dynamically
- Conformity check info
- Stoppage alerts
- LTA instant reporting

Part of a larger whole

It is up to the customer and the final setup what should be displayed and analyzed on the Kiosk. While the traditional Info Kiosks may display pre-prepared static info, execute the simplest commands, the BI Kiosk capabilities are limitless. Its heart and mind are Microsoft Power Platform Services - Power BI and Power Apps to name just the two most important. All the computing is done by the Microsoft Cloud.
We can deliver not only the device, but also secure the full functional system implementation, what may include:
- Azure Data Architecture

Take a look at the sample chart below – our BI Kiosk can become a vital part of the company business intelligence set-up, unleasing opportunities as unique as your needs.
FMCG manufacturing case study
We deployed the Kiosk at one of the world’s leading fast moving consumer goods company. It serves multiple purposes:
- As an interactive dashboard (thanks to Power BI reports), implemented to replace printed charts. Should you need to analyze something in detail, you drill the charts down. Reports are fed by the data from multiple sources and its refresh is highly, if not completely, automated.
- As a virtual library, where the technical documentation, drawings, manuals are available to authorized staff.
- As HSE library with instant access to relevant information and documentation.
- As data gathering device – with the embedded and dedicated Power App, the team members can report info and results for particular shift, the data is transferred to the database and then reflected in the Power BI reports (mentioned in the first bullet point). The same app (just optimized for different system and screen size) is available for users on the company smartphones.
What if I already have Power BI reports? Can I see them on the BI Kiosk?
If you already have implemented the Power BI reporting in your company and would like to display them on the Power BI Kiosk, the device can be freely configured to do just this.
Where to start?
The cost and effort for both the device and all the side services depend on how complicated and sophisticated the entire implementation should be. Each project is quoted and estimated separately and is proceeded by thorough analysis of the customer needs and feasibility study. One of the major factor is whether you need just the device or if what you need is a full implementation, with the supply of Power BI and Power Apps development services. Should you need the device, we are talking days here for the delivery.
