KOKAI helps companies improve financial planning, reporting, and decision-making through modern tools like Microsoft Fabric, Power BI, Aimplan, and Bizview. We combine technical expertise with business understanding to deliver solutions that create real value.
-
We focus on the intersection between FP&A and Business Intelligence. That means we don’t just build dashboards or implement tools. We help you connect financial processes, data, and insights into one cohesive solution tailored to your business.
-
We work with mid-sized and large companies across industries that want to modernize their planning, reporting, and analytics. Often, our customers are finance teams looking to become more data-driven and efficient.
-
Look for a partner that understands both data architecture and business use cases. Microsoft Fabric is powerful, but the real value comes from how it supports reporting, planning, and decision-making. You should also look for experience with Power BI, data modelling, and integration across your data landscape.
-
We help you design, implement, and optimize your Fabric environment. This includes data ingestion, modeling, governance, and building scalable reporting solutions in Power BI. Our focus is always on making your data usable for business decisions.
-
Yes. Many of our projects involve improving existing solutions. We help optimise data models, improve performance, enhance user experience, and ensure your reports actually support decision-making.
-
We support the full journey. From initial setup and modeling to integration and user adoption. Our goal is to ensure Aimplan becomes a natural part of your financial planning processes, not just another system.ption
-
We combine technical implementation with strong functional expertise in FP&A. This means we help you design models, workflows, and reports that align with how your finance team actually works.
-
Both are powerful FP&A tools, but they serve slightly different needs depending on your organization’s size, complexity, and existing systems. We help you evaluate which solution fits best and ensure a successful implementation.
-
We work closely with your team in a collaborative setup. This can include everything from advisory and implementation to long-term partnership through what we call a continuous “care” model.
-
No. We support both smaller initiatives and larger transformations. Whether you need help with a specific Power BI report or a full FP&A implementation, we adapt to your needs.
-
Yes. We specialise in integrating with existing systems like ERP, CRM, and data platforms. Our goal is to build on what you already have and make it work better together.
-
Typical outcomes include better data quality, more efficient planning processes, improved reporting, and faster decision-making. Most importantly, you gain better control and visibility across your business.
-
It depends on the scope, but we always aim to deliver value early. Many clients see improvements within weeks through quick wins, followed by more long-term impact.
-
Yes. We believe in long-term partnerships. Through our “care” approach, we continuously help you improve, adapt, and get more value from your solutions over time.
-
The best way is to reach out for an initial conversation. We’ll discuss your current setup, challenges, and goals and identify where we can create the most value.
-
Yes. We regularly run demos and workshops for Microsoft Fabric, Power BI, Aimplan, and Bizview. These are great ways to explore possibilities and see how the tools work in practice.
Microsoft has announced a new entry point to Fabric with no upfront compute charge. We look at what F0 could mean for finance teams, from testing their first workloads to making better capacity decisions.
