Empowering BFBS with SharePoint and Power BI

Custom-built to streamline collaboration, drive smarter content decisions, and support BFBS for the long term.

How it started

The Challenge

BFBS supports the global British Armed Forces community with radio, TV, and digital content. But behind the scenes, their internal systems were stuck in the past.

Limited collaboration tools made teamwork slow and fragmented

Outdated processes held back productivity and content delivery

No real-time reporting meant presenters were flying blind when it came to performance

No clear path forward — the platform wasn’t built to evolve with their needs

BFBS needed a modern solution that could support their presenters, provide actionable data, and adapt to whatever came next.

The Solution

What We Delivered

1. A Modern SharePoint Site Built for Presenters
We designed and deployed a customised SharePoint Online environment that gave presenters a centralised hub for collaboration, scheduling, file sharing, and day-to-day operations, all fully integrated with Microsoft 365.

2. Power BI Integration for Real-Time Insights
We embedded Power BI dashboards directly into the SharePoint experience, giving presenters immediate access to audience metrics, engagement trends, and scheduling data. All visual, interactive, and designed to support smarter decisions.

3. Future-Proof Infrastructure
This wasn’t a quick fix. We built the platform with scale and change in mind, ensuring BFBS could evolve without rebuilding, from content strategy to tech upgrades.

4. Enhanced Collaboration & Reporting
With task management, team comms, document versioning and data dashboards all in one place, presenters and managers could collaborate and measure success without switching tools or chasing reports.

The Impact

Modernised Internal Operations with a streamlined, user-friendly SharePoint experience

Smarter Programming Decisions powered by real-time performance data

Improved Collaboration across dispersed teams and time zones

Scalable Architecture ready for new tech, new content, and future challenges
