About

Most government organisations have Power BI. Very few have teams who actually use it. I run DataTale, the Power BI training and consulting practice built specifically for the government sector. Over the past six years I've led Power BI rollouts at 10+ government organisations, and trained 850+ government staff and 2,100+ professionals in total, across councils, state agencies, federal departments, and ASX 200 corporates. Here's the pattern I see over and over. An agency invests in Power BI. A consultant builds the first dashboard. Six months later, nobody opens it. Reports still live in Excel. Questions still take days to answer. The tool is there, but the capability isn't. That's the gap DataTale closes. 👉 Book a 30-min strategy call: bit.ly/41RAbYn 👉 Join the Power BI for Government CoP: forms.office.com/r/uVJbh5DHrr What I do: Rollouts. End-to-end Power BI implementations for government organisations. Licensing and tenant setup, governance, semantic model design, report development, and the capability uplift that makes it all stick. 10+ rollouts delivered across councils and state agencies. Training. Beginner through advanced Power BI, on-site or remote, designed so your team ends up self-sufficient rather than dependent on an outside consultant. Microsoft Certified Trainer, Microsoft Partner, 15 years of government reporting context (I previously led the analytics function at City of Casey). Consulting. Dashboards, semantic models, and the tricky DAX your team hasn't cracked yet. Built so your analysts can maintain the work after I leave. Recent projects span HR and workforce dashboards, finance models, community survey reporting, and procurement benchmarking. Community. I host the quarterly Power BI for Government Community of Practice, where data people from councils, state agencies, and federal departments share what's actually working. Free, genuinely useful, no pitch at the end. A few recent clients: Camden Council, Woollahra Council, Nillumbik Shire, Banyule City, Frankston City, MAV Procurement, VCAA. I founded the Victorian Local Government BI Meetup in 2019, and picked up an AIIA i-award for AI innovation while at City of Casey in 2018.
