Microsoft Fabric
Delivery Partner
You can't trust the numbers you're betting the business on.
Your data already has the answer. Your reports just can't show it. Think AI unifies it on Microsoft Fabric into one view you can finally trust, proven on your real data in a week. If it doesn't answer your question, you pay nothing.
You've invested millions in systems. You still can't get a straight answer.
If you run a mid-market manufacturer, at least one of these is true this week. And it's quietly costing you:
Here's what most vendors won't tell you: this isn't a dashboard problem. It's a data-foundation problem. And it's fixable, faster than you think.
So where do you start?
Pick the one question that keeps you up at night.
That's the one we prove first, on your real data. Everything else follows from it.
"Can we finally get one governed, trusted view out of our ERP investment, and prove it fast?"
Your board wants an AI answer this year. The risk is putting it on data you can't fully trust, with your name on the result. We help you hand leadership a real win, fast and guaranteed, and you're the one who delivered it.
"What's our true margin by product, plant, and customer, and why does month-end still take days?"
"Where do we actually stand on on-time delivery (OTIF), inventory, and throughput across plants, right now?"
"Can we hand leadership a real, self-serve dashboard without another six-week backlog fight?"
Don't take our word for it. See it on your real data.
Credentials are one thing. Here's how you put them to the test, on your own data, in a week. Our senior architects build one live executive dashboard that answers the single question your leadership keeps asking. A working result you can put in front of your CEO or board: a win, not an audit.
We lock the one question.
Together we pick the single answer worth proving, and get you into the right slice of data. Tight scope is what keeps this fast and predictable.
Senior architects build.
No junior hand-off. We build your dashboard on your real data, and show you what your systems can and can't yet tell you.
You get the win.
A live dashboard, a plain-English roadmap for what comes next, and fixed-price options if you want them. Yours to keep, either way.
If the dashboard doesn't answer the question we agree on, on your real data, you pay nothing. You keep the dashboard and the roadmap either way.
Fixed scope. Fixed timeline. Fully credited toward your project if you move forward.
A result you can take to the board, fast. Fixed price, fully credited, guaranteed, your name on it.
Real manufacturers. Real results.
One governed source of truth on Power BI, Azure, and Microsoft Fabric. Role-secured, so each team sees exactly what it should. Self-serve analytics is standard now, and there are no servers to maintain.
US, Europe, Australia, and Asia Pacific, all in one live dashboard. Inventory by volume and value, turns, and true margin after the currency swings. The business decides in real time now.
A modern data warehouse pulled the multi-ERP mess (multiple facilities) into one source of truth, with real-time shipment and inventory data and master-data management. Less manual entry, fewer errors, real-time visibility.
Client names withheld for confidentiality. Full details shared under NDA on request.
Big-firm caliber. Without the big-firm distance.
You don't need another body shop throwing junior offshore resources at your data. You don't need a Big 5 firm that routes you through analysts and process. You need senior people who get your business fast, and stand behind the result.
Senior-led, always.
A senior, architect-led team does the thinking, Microsoft MVPs among them. Not a junior crew learning on your project.
Outcomes over technology.
We're technology-agnostic in stance, and we standardize on Microsoft Fabric because it works. You buy a result. The stack is our problem.
Accountable by design.
Fixed-bid engagements put the delivery risk on us. We own our mistakes and give credit openly.
Your team gets the credit.
Senior architects do the work, and we make your team the ones who delivered it.

Questions manufacturing leaders ask us.
What is the Think AI Proof of Value?
It's a fixed, one-week engagement in which Think AI's senior architects build you one live executive dashboard on your real data, the answer to the single question your leadership keeps asking. It isn't an audit: an audit hands you a report of what's wrong, while this hands you a working dashboard you can show your CEO or board, with the gaps surfaced as a forward roadmap. If it doesn't answer the question we agree on, you pay nothing.
How long does the Proof of Value take?
One week. On Day 1 we lock the one question and get access to the right slice of your data. On Days 2 to 4 our senior team builds the dashboard on your real data. On Day 5 we deliver the live dashboard, a plain-English roadmap, and fixed-price options for the next step.
What does the Proof of Value cost?
It's a single fixed fee, no hourly surprises, and it's fully credited toward your follow-on project, so if you continue, the proof effectively costs nothing. We confirm the exact figure on a short call once we've scoped your one question. And it's guaranteed: if the dashboard doesn't answer the question we agree on, on your real data, you pay nothing. You keep the dashboard and the roadmap either way.
What data do you need from us?
Just the slice relevant to your one question, usually read access to your ERP or existing reports. We scope exactly what's needed on Day 1, keep it least-privilege, and never copy your data to personal machines.
What is Microsoft Fabric, and why does Think AI standardize on it?
Microsoft Fabric is Microsoft's unified data and analytics platform. We standardize delivery on it because it lets us unify scattered manufacturing data, a complex ERP, spreadsheets, and multiple disconnected systems, into one governed, trusted view, fast. We're technology-agnostic in stance. Fabric is simply what works best for this.
How do you get one trusted view across multiple ERPs?
You unify the data outside the ERPs instead of trying to make the ERPs agree. We land each system's data in one governed layer on Microsoft Fabric, map the fields that mean the same thing to a single definition, then build reporting on that layer. Every ERP keeps running as it is. Leadership gets one number that reconciles, and the next acquisition stops resetting your reporting.
How do I choose a Microsoft Fabric partner?
Ask for proof on your own data before you sign anything large. Three questions separate partners quickly: will senior architects do the work or will it be handed to a junior team, will they commit to a fixed price with a guarantee, and can they show a working result on your real data in weeks rather than a discovery phase measured in months. Credentials matter too. The Microsoft Advanced Specialization in Data Warehouse Migration is held by a small fraction of partners and is verifiable in the Microsoft partner directory. We wrote the longer version of this answer: how to choose a Microsoft Fabric partner.
Who is the Proof of Value for?
Mid-market manufacturers (roughly $50M to $1B in revenue) whose data is trapped across a complex ERP and multiple systems, where leadership needs margin, inventory, and on-time delivery (OTIF) visibility they can actually trust.
What happens after the Proof of Value?
You keep the dashboard and the roadmap regardless. If you choose to continue, your Proof-of-Value fee is fully credited toward a fixed-scope Microsoft Fabric accelerator that builds out the full trusted view, a unified data foundation plus the executive dashboards on top.
