Self-serve · Ready to connect · UK HE

Dashboard templates for UK Higher Education.

Ready-made Power BI dashboards, built to a standard HE schema. Buy once, connect your institution's data, publish.

NSS and OfS APP data have the same fields and structure across every UK HEI. Only the underlying data differs. These templates are the shortcut most institutions never realise they can take: a fully-designed dashboard set that plugs straight into your existing exports, without the six-month build cycle or the six-figure consultancy quote.

Why these templates exist.

NSS and OfS APP dashboards get rebuilt from scratch in institution after institution. Every UK HEI works to the same field definitions and reporting requirements, yet each team burns weeks re-inventing charts that already exist elsewhere.

These templates come from a decade of building the same dashboards inside four UK universities. The design has been road-tested with academic leadership, students unions and OfS reporting teams. Buying a template means skipping the six-month build and the discovery cycle that goes with it.

Need something bespoke on top? Bespoke customisation, integration into existing warehouses, or full end-to-end builds are available through consulting.
