BrightWork 365 connects your project data to Power BI, so you can:

  • View key metrics across all manufacturing projects
  • Monitor budgets, risks, and timelines in real time
  • Identify delays or bottlenecks early
  • Share reports with decision-makers in a few click

    Compare performance across sites or departments

  • Report at the project, program, or portfolio level
