Questions about Den Otter Solutions resources

Can't find your question here? Get in touch via the contact form.

Does Den Otter Solutions offer free KPI checklists?
Yes. The practice offers free KPI checklists: Supply Chain & Logistics, Finance & Control, Procurement & Spend, and Hospitality & Food. Each checklist contains 10 KPIs with definition, formula, benchmark values and a Power BI implementation tip. They are available as a PDF download — no email address required.
What is the Data Maturity Scan?
The Data Maturity Scan by Den Otter Solutions is a free online questionnaire of 28 questions covering data sources, reporting, decision-making and data culture. The outcome is a data maturity phase (1 to 5) based on the Coleman model, with concrete improvement steps per phase. The scan takes approximately 10 minutes and is currently available in Dutch.
Which businesses are these resources designed for?
The resources are built for SME businesses that want to work data-driven but do not yet have an in-house data team. The KPI checklists apply across logistics, distribution, manufacturing, finance, procurement and hospitality. Den Otter Solutions helps these companies move from spreadsheets to a Power BI environment connected to their own ERP or accounting software. The practice serves clients across the Netherlands and internationally.
How do I use a KPI checklist as a starting point for a Power BI dashboard?
Each checklist contains a concrete Power BI tip per KPI — from building an ABC matrix to setting up conditional formatting for supplier scores. The checklists are designed as a practical starting point, not a theoretical reference. Want to make the KPIs operational in your own environment? We offer a Data Start Scan as the first step.

Measuring KPIs is step one.
Making them operational is step two.

Den Otter Solutions builds Power BI dashboards that allow SME businesses to track these KPIs daily — connected to their own ERP, order system or accounting software. No generic templates, but a dashboard built around your processes.
