The automated reporting solution built by ITRex has allowed the company to easily connect to various third-party sources of data and automatically produce two types of custom reports for sharing with their customers. Its key features are:
●
Automated data extraction from the client’s internal desktop application and third-party data sources using custom-built applications in Azure Functions (this data can be pulled in real time or at intervals)
●
Custom reports in Power BI on building maintenance issues and KPIs such as electricity, natural gas, water, and steam cost, consumption, and savings
●
Ability to slice and dice building performance data (YoY trends, daily consumption, monthly consumption, custom date selection, % difference, etc.)
●
Ability to share reports with customers via a link, providing them with access to real-time or near-real-time building performance data
●
Role-level security to ensure that customers access only their data
●
Option to easily add new customers by creating a new account in MS Azure Active Directory
