BI Metric Consistency

Get the same number in every BI tool

Define a metric once in MetaKarta, then compile it into the native format of every platform that reports on it. Finance and sales ops stop reconciling, because they're reading the same compiled artifact.

The Problem

Every new BI tool gets its own version of revenue

"Revenue" means one thing in Power BI and another in Tableau. Finance's ARR and Sales' ARR come from calculations written years apart by people solving different problems.

Each new tool in the estate gets the metric coded again, usually by someone working without full context on what the original definition was supposed to enforce.

Teams spend roughly 20% of every sprint reconciling numbers instead of building. The executive complaint arrives in the same words every quarter: the numbers don't match.

The Approach

Define the definition once, then deploy it to every target

Definitions live in the shared metadata repository alongside the lineage that traces them and the stewardship records that document who changed them and when.

Semantic Hub compiles that governed definition into the native artifacts of every target platform at once. The same definition produces the same number everywhere it's consumed.

Change the definition and recompile it into every target. The reconciliation work goes away because the fragmentation underneath it is resolved in the systems and tools that report the number.

What Changes

One number in the board deck

Every tool reads the same compiled artifact, so the quarterly argument about whose figure is right has a factual answer.

Sprints spent building

Reconciliation work drops out of the sprint because the definitions stop diverging between releases.

Definitions that survive the next tool

Adding a BI platform means adding a compile target. The governed definition carries forward intact.
