Product update: New Power BI Dashboards and Feature Flags

Written by Arttu Vesterinen | Sep 11, 2024 5:00:00 AM

Our development team has been busy lately and here are a bunch of new product updates. In this blog we'll go through couple of new Power BI Dashboards and  a new section in Falcony menu bar called "Discover More".

This is the third and final blog post from our recent launch event held on the 5th of September 2024. Stay tuned for upcoming launch events.

Discover more from Falcony

During this summer we added a new tab in the Falcony menu called ‘Discover more’, where admins can now find functionalities, features, other Falcony products and integrations they are not yet using.

Each item consists of explanation of the feature, product or integration, benefits you can expect to have using it and transparent pricing whenever that's possible to share. Note that some integrations or products have pricing that depends on customer requirements, hence sometimes prices are not visible.

The reason we decided to put this out within the Falcony platform itself is because we know for a fact that the platform has been developing so rapidly that not all admins are even familiar with all the new features we have done. This will definitely help with that.

New Power BI Dashboards

There's a good reason why we have been so active with creating new dashboards in Microsoft Power BI. It is because, one, it’s by far the most common BI tool in the market and two, most of the management teams and nowadays even middle management want to have all the data and reports in just one place instead of having to learn new tools for each and every report.

Another big reason why we have decided to create ready-made Power BI reports is because more often than not, our customers' own resources to create the reports are either limited or at over-capacity.

Safety KPI Dashboard

With that in mind, our first new Power BI dashboard is about Safety KPIs. For anyone working in the field of safety, HSEQ or OHS, are probably familiar with accident frequencies. This dashboard will give KPIs of different accident frequencies such as TRIF, LTAF and MTIF but also number of days since last accident and great drill-downs to each number and KPI.

On top of that, we’ve added a little extra. You can also compare the number of accidents to leading indicators such as number of safety observations and near misses that in theory should help you learn to mitigate injuries from happening.

Two important involvement metrics we’ve invented are adoption rate and reporting rate. Adoption rate tells what percentage of users have logged in and used Falcony in the past 12 months whereas reporting rate tells the average number of observations reported per user. So the wider and deeper the usage, the better.

Good dashboards also look at the future too. Hence there’s also a separate page for setting the targets and our customer success team can also join the discussions in the review meeting with target setting.

Tenant Portal

We’ve always seen tenant portals as one of the best ways to invest in the experience of the existing tenants in commercial buildings. In the past we didn’t have a good way to put this into metrics and KPIs but this new dashboard will change that.

Tenant portals are often created on a building by building basis within Falcony but the Power BI dashboard gives full visibility on the entire portfolio as well. What it means in practice is that now tenant portal admins can view visits, announcements, questions and other activities of the tenant portals over time, as a breakdown by property with the possibility to drill deeper based on pretty much any variable.

Conclusion

If you are interested in any one of these new features and dashboards, let us know. Lots of updates and also new dashboard views are also being worked at this very moment too, so stay tuned for future releases!

If you are new to Falcony, simply reach out to use and let's book a meeting to discuss more! Or start a free trial to see Falcony in action:

We are building the world's first operational involvement platform. Our mission is to make the process of finding, sharing, fixing and learning from issues and observations as easy as thinking about them and as rewarding as being remembered for them.‍

By doing this, we are making work more meaningful for all parties involved.
