Hello there, I will build your resource utilization dashboard in Power BI — covering overall utilization percentages, allocated vs. available capacity, over/under-utilized team members, and project-level resource breakdowns with weekly and monthly views. For the data layer, I will restructure your Excel tabs into a normalized star schema with a central fact table for allocations and dimension tables for resources, projects, and time. This makes the Power BI model efficient and — more importantly — makes future data updates straightforward since you simply append rows rather than reworking formulas across multiple sheets. Looking forward to discussing further. Best regards, Kamran

I can provide a beautiful and interactive dashboard that can be securely accessed from any device, which accepts your existing document as an input. In this way you can continue to update the excel document as you have been; but enjoy a new visual dashboard to quickly present the key metrics you outlined (utilization/allocation/distribution). I'm able to show a wide variety of dashboards that I've built in the past and can accommodate all of your specific critieria. Let's chat!
