Built for Primavera P6 + Microsoft Fabric

Trusted P6 reporting
in 10 days, not 10 months.

Your planners spend 25% of their time producing reports. Primer eliminates that gap — a deployable analytics framework that installs in your Fabric tenant, ingests P6 automatically, and delivers executive-ready Power BI dashboards with numbers that match P6.

Your P6 data is trapped.

Most PMOs run Primavera P6 — and then spend days turning it into reports nobody trusts.

📊

Numbers don't match P6

Your reporting says one thing, the planner's P6 layout says another. Stakeholders stop trusting the pack, and you spend hours reconciling.

⏱️

Manual exports every week

Someone exports an XER. Someone else uploads it into Excel. Someone reformats it into PowerPoint. Every. Single. Week. That's not analytics — it's admin.

🔒

P6 licences cost a fortune

At £1,200–£3,000 per seat, you can't give every stakeholder a P6 licence just to view a Gantt chart. So they get stale PDFs instead.

Primer installs. Ingests. Reports.
In your tenant. In your control.

A proven analytics framework, deployed into your Microsoft Fabric environment with P6-correct numbers from day one.

Low risk. Fast results. Numbers that match P6.

From £29,995 & 10 days

You're probably thinking...

"We can build it ourselves."
You can. The question is whether you want your team building plumbing for months, or using a proven foundation in two weeks and focusing on business rules and adoption. Primer gives you 4,000+ hours of tested framework so your internal effort goes into tailoring, not rebuilding basics.
"We already have dashboards."
The real issue is trust and automation. If your dashboards don't match P6 or rely on manual exports, they won't get adopted. Primer makes reporting reliable, automated, and repeatable — with numbers your planners and leadership can both trust.
"10–14 days sounds unrealistic."
It's fast because the framework is already built. The honest caveat: we sometimes need small P6 or data-rule tweaks to make outputs consistent. That's how we guarantee the numbers match P6. The heavy lifting — architecture, ingestion, models, reports — is already done.
"Our P6 data is messy."
Messy data is normal. The bigger risk is publishing numbers people don't trust. We'll ingest, standardise, and — where needed — recommend small rule changes to improve consistency. That's part of the deployment.
"We don't have Fabric ready."
What's missing — capacity, governance, or ownership? Primer still helps because it's built for Fabric and gives you a clear target state. We can help assess readiness and define the shortest path to getting started.
"We need to see ROI first."
Anchor ROI to time and trust. If Primer cuts pack creation from days to hours, removes manual exports, and reduces rework from mismatches — ROI shows up in weeks, not months. We'll quantify it together in the first call.

Trusted reporting in 10 days.
Not another 10-month platform project.
