Automating KPI Reporting for Fabrication Projects: A Power Platform Success Story

An Australian fabrication company managing several active projects was facing challenges with tracking daily production metrics like completed assemblies, total weight, and worker performance. Their existing process were relied on scattered Excel sheets and unreliable automated flows, which was leading to constant reporting delays and data inconsistencies.
To make daily operations smoother, gain clearer visibility into production output, and reduce manual errors, they began searching for a system that could integrate with their existing workflow and offer a more reliable, automated way to capture and report project metrics in real time.
We built a KPI tracking solution that connects with project folders to automatically collect key data from standardized Bill of Material (BOM) sheets—simplifying KPI reporting and eliminating the need for manual Excel handling.
The system displays real-time metrics every 3 hours, including the total number of completed assemblies, total weight, and the names of team members who completed them. The Power Automate flow scans each BOM sheet, extracts the necessary data based on completion inputs, and updates a consolidated report—giving admins and project managers instant access to live insights without opening individual files.
The solution supports both desktop and mobile access, allowing workshop teams and managers to track daily progress easily and make informed decisions on the go.
The new solution brought a major upgrade in how project performance and team output are monitored. By eliminating unreliable flows and better reporting, the platform delivered consistent, real-time visibility into key metrics.
With the automated sync running at the backend, workshop teams can focus on production while decision-makers stay informed through an insight—reducing reporting delays and manual errors. The system also scales effortlessly as more projects are added, without impacting performance and accuracy.
Gain instant access to all key performance indicators through a unified system, eliminating the need to pull data from multiple Excel files.
Power Automate flows extract relevant data (assembly status, weight, employee name) from identical BOM Excel files across multiple project folders without any manual effort.
It automatically updates KPIs three times a day, ensuring fresh and accurate reporting without relying on error-prone loops.
Designed for ease of use, the platform offers a smooth and intuitive experience whether accessed from a desktop or mobile device—ensuring managers can track and manage data effortlessly.
This system is built with role-based permissions and Microsoft’s security framework, ensuring only authorized users can view or update project data. This protects sensitive information while maintaining compliance with industry standards.
