Decision Lab specialises in Power BI, Power Apps and automation — turning spreadsheets, manual processes and disconnected systems into tools your team will actually use.
Three connected practices. Engage one or all — most clients start with one and grow from there.
Move from spreadsheet sprawl to clarity. We design Power BI dashboards, semantic models and reporting pipelines that put the right answers in front of the right people — without the dashboard graveyard.
Replace clunky spreadsheets, email-driven processes and disconnected tools with internal apps and automated workflows. Built on the Microsoft Power Platform so what we ship lives where your team already works.
Your team is your biggest advantage. Hands-on workshops, embedded coaching and executive briefings so reporting, apps and automation become part of how you work — not something a vendor sold you.
Our approach is shaped by the kinds of projects that actually land — and the ones that don't.
Every engagement starts with the question: what decision is this meant to improve? If we can't name it, we don't build it. Avoids dashboards no one opens and models no one trusts.
We ship something real in weeks, not quarters — a working prototype, a usable dashboard, a model with a clear measure of success. Then we iterate with you watching.
We're not trying to live in your business forever. We document, train and pair until your team can run it. The best engagement ends with us being optional.
Decision Lab is a New Zealand-based practice working with clients across Aotearoa and around the world. We're independent, vendor-neutral, and practitioner-led — the people on your project are the people who do the work.
We work across sectors — public, private, and not-for-profit — and across the maturity curve, from "we have spreadsheets and ambition" to "we have a data team and need someone to actually get the Power Platform delivering."
Whether you're trying to get clean reporting in place, replace a manual process with proper automation, or upskill a team that's about to inherit a new stack of tools — we've probably been there.
Whether you're starting from scratch or stuck halfway, we'd love to hear what you're trying to do.
