Orbital and BI dashboards

Keep flexible analytics. Add a governed commercial operating layer.

Understand where a general BI dashboard ends and Orbital's workspace, policy and evidence model begins.

BI dashboards remains authoritative

Keep the source role explicit.

A BI tool remains useful for flexible analysis, custom visualization and broad data exploration.

  • Flexible charts and ad-hoc analysis
  • Broad warehouse exploration
  • Custom reporting for many functions

Orbital adds context

Connect the commercial evidence.

Orbital supplies a specific commercial model with tenant authorization, compatible KPI policies and traceable next reviews.

  • Commercial event and money semantics
  • Workspace and portfolio authorization
  • Unavailable states, data-quality alerts and source drilldown

Use together

Use both when governed Orbital metrics should feed broader analysis without losing their definitions and access boundaries.

  • Orbital is not a general-purpose warehouse
  • A chart does not establish source quality
  • Different currencies and KPI policies are not flattened
