Microsoft has announced the selection of Red Level as an early member of its invitation-only Power BI Red Carpet Partner Program. As a result, the Novi-based technology consulting firm will be able to provide Power BI and associated services on advantageous terms to its small and medium-sized businesses as well as its enterprise clients. Microsoft Power BI, or “business intelligence,” is a sophisticated new cloud-based tool that transforms a company’s data into rich visuals for its employees to collect and organize so they can focus on what matters to them: staying in the know, spotting trends as they happen, and pushing their business further. Through Power BI, Microsoft anticipates that businesses can make usable, actionable data available throughout an organization, enable opportunities for new services, and gain vital insights from fragmented and under-analyzed data. The company pegs the value to businesses of Power BI adoption at $1.6 trillion over the ...

“What we have here is a failure to communicate,” Strother Martin said in Cool Hand Luke back in 1968. And there’s a reason that line remains memorable four and a half decades later: Business communication problems are a big source of inefficiency and frustration, and when technology is involved, they seem to multiply the frustration – not to mention the impact. When it comes down to it, business technology is really all about communication. When that technology is inefficient, bogged down, poorly configured, dysfunctional, or just plain slow, you can wind up with “failure to communicate” on a grand scale. In Cool Hand Luke, they tended to solve communications issues by hitting people and smashing things. Fortunately, there are better methods available. All of them start with properly identifying the problem – always the first step in applying an effective solution. There are three common “Failure To Communicate” issues that tend to crop up again and again, ...

How many big ideas, inspiring stories, and cool performances can fit under one roof? I’d have a hard time coming up with a solid answer, but if yesterday’s TEDx at the Fox Theater is anything to go by, the answer is “a lot.” This year, Red Level joined a cross-section of forward-looking area companies—manufacturers, technology firms, venture capitalists, marketing agencies and more - in sponsoring this annual gathering of bright minds and great talents. Amazing new automotive concepts like Elio Motors and musicians and poets like Ahya Simone and Darius Simpson really wowed our audience this year. I’ve been involved with TEDxDetroit for six years, helping to organize each annual event - and, not incidentally, trying to make sure that as many people as possible in our region know about it. I’m happy to say that it’s been working, and working well. 300 people attended the first TEDxDetroit event in a college lecture hall six years ...

We know the deal: It can be the best of times for your company, but you’re still hearing from upstairs that there is simply “no budget” for the IT projects, personnel, or services you need. Your increasingly urgent requests escalate from simple requests to SOS signals, and you still hear the same thing: “No budget. Maybe next quarter.” Or next year. Or, you think to yourself, next century. Meanwhile, your IT infrastructure and applications aren’t getting any newer, the help desk requests aren’t slowing down, and the list of sidelined projects isn’t getting any shorter. Or maybe you often find yourself passing a tin cup around “begging” for budget from department managers to fund IT projects. How long will it be, you wonder, until you resort to holding together your company’s information nerve center with little more than duct tape and crossed fingers Don’t give up just yet. Effective communication—and ...
