Power BI Build Buy Retire Decision
Use this skill before starting new Power BI work.
Decision Options
- Build: new governed model/report is justified.
- Extend: existing certified dataset/report covers most needs.
- Buy: standard SaaS/Fabric/Power BI app is better than custom build.
- Migrate: legacy report should move into governed Power BI.
- Consolidate: duplicate reports should merge.
- Retire: no owner, no usage, or replaced capability.
- Defer: source/KPI/security readiness is insufficient.
Output Requirements
- Provide recommendation, rationale, risks, owner, and next artifact.
- Include cost, speed, governance, reuse, security, and maintenance impact.
