Overview: This project is an end-to-end Business Intelligence solution that transforms 100 SKUs of raw supply chain data into a high-level strategic tool. It was born out of a "messy land" phase where I had to backtrack to MySQL and Excel to resolve encoding errors and data-type conflicts before building a responsive, three-page executive dashboard in Power BI.
The Three Pillars of the Dashboard:
Slide 1: Executive Financial Overview
Focus: Core profitability and top-line metrics.
The Big Win: I developed custom DAX measures for Net Profit and Revenue generated, identifying Skincare as the primary profit engine ($217,242). This slide serves as the "Financial Pulse" of the company.
Slide 2: Customer & Market Intelligence
Focus: Demographic spending and regional logistics.
The Big Win: By mapping revenue against location and demographics, I identified that Kolkata is our highest-volume market but suffers from a 19.4-day delivery delay. I proposed a logistics shift based on Delhi's faster 14.6-day model to unlock growth.
Slide 3: Supplier Risk & Quality Audit
Focus: Partner performance and manufacturing health.
The Big Win: This is the "Risk" engine. I uncovered a massive liability with Supplier 4, who carries the highest manufacturing costs ($62.71) but holds a 0% inspection pass rate. This provides an immediate, data-backed recommendation for procurement offboarding.
Technical Execution:
Data Engineering: Used MySQL to sanitize product types and create a math-ready schema, overcoming "Incorrect DECIMAL" errors that initially broke the responsiveness of the dashboard.
Advanced Analytics: Built a Weighted Defect Rate measure to identify quality outliers and a Product Affinity Heatmap to show which demographics buy which products.
UI/UX Design: Implemented a futuristic "Dark Mode" theme with neon accents and interactive slicers to allow executives to drill down into specific categories or regions instantly.
The "Jump": This work represents a move beyond simple data reporting. It demonstrates the ability to audit one's own errors, go back to the source code to fix them, and deliver a "bulletproof" product that connects backend logistics to front-end profit.
