Centralizing Document Management with Power BI & SharePoint for Scalable Team Collaboration

In fast-paced project environments, real-time access to documents and schedules is non-negotiable. At New Benefits Marketplace, multiple departments relied on fragmented platforms to manage project documents. This scatter led to critical inefficiencies—updates weren’t synchronized, teams weren’t aligned, and stakeholders struggled to make informed decisions on time. The need for a centralized and collaborative solution was urgent.

The Challenge

Too Many Platforms, Too Little Clarity

It started with something simple—teams couldn’t find the right document. Then it snowballed. Project schedules were hidden across drives, outdated files surfaced during meetings, and no one could tell which version was correct.

Conversations began with, “Where’s the latest file?” instead of, “How do we move forward?” Stakeholders grew increasingly frustrated with the lack of real-time data, and internal collaboration took a hit.

Teams spent more time locating files than actually using them, leading to decision-making delays and frequent mismatches in project progress.

The Solution

Power BI + SharePoint: A Dynamic Duo for Document Centralization

To address the fragmentation, we engineered a unified solution by tightly integrating Power BI with SharePoint—turning disjointed folders into a seamless system of record.

First, SharePoint folders were restructured to serve as dynamic data sources. Power BI then pulled project schedules directly from these folders, updating visuals in real-time.

We customized Power BI’s query logic to handle various file structures, ensuring compatibility and clean data ingestion.

This meant every stakeholder—no matter their department—had access to a single version of the truth, right from their dashboard. The result? Real-time visibility, consistent documentation, and empowered teamwork.
