Frequently Asked Questions
What qualifies as a Power BI emergency?
Critical emergencies include: production dashboards down affecting business operations, data refresh failures impacting regulatory reporting, security breaches in Power BI tenant, gateway failures, capacity crashes, and any issue blocking executive decision-making or compliance deadlines.
What is EPC Group's emergency response time?
EPC Group provides 1-hour initial response for critical Power BI emergencies during business hours, and 4-hour response for after-hours critical issues. Our senior consultants begin remote triage immediately and can resolve most issues within 2-4 hours.
Do you offer after-hours and weekend Power BI support?
Yes. EPC Group provides 24/7 emergency support for clients on retainer agreements. After-hours support is also available on a per-incident basis for urgent issues that cannot wait until the next business day.
How much does emergency Power BI support cost?
Emergency support is billed at a premium rate starting at $350/hour with a 2-hour minimum. Retainer clients receive priority response and discounted emergency rates. Most critical issues are resolved in 2-6 hours, making the typical emergency engagement $700-$2,100.
Can you help if our Power BI gateway or capacity is down?
Absolutely. Gateway failures and Premium capacity crashes are among our most common emergency calls. We troubleshoot connectivity, memory pressure, query timeouts, and configuration issues — and can failover to backup gateways or redistribute capacity workloads within hours.

What counts as a Power BI emergency?
Not every issue needs emergency response. These situations do:
- Production dashboards down — business operations halted or delayed.
- Data refresh failures affecting regulatory or compliance reporting.
- Security breaches in the Power BI tenant — unauthorized data access.
- Gateway failures blocking report data ingestion.
- Capacity crashes causing all reports to time out or error.
- Any outage blocking executive decision-making or compliance deadlines.
Common emergency scenarios we resolve
EPC Group engineers respond to the full range of Power BI production failures. Below are the most common issues we see.
Report and dashboard failures
- Report loads blank or returns an error code.
- Visuals show stale data after a scheduled refresh.
- Row-level security breaks after a permission change.
- Embedded reports stop rendering inside Dynamics 365 or SharePoint.
Data refresh failures
- Scheduled refresh fails with a gateway timeout.
- Dataset refresh queued but never completes.
- Direct Lake mode falls back to DirectQuery unexpectedly.
- Incremental refresh partition errors blocking full dataset load.
Capacity and performance issues
- F-SKU or Premium capacity overloaded — all reports slow or down.
- Memory exhaustion causing refresh jobs to fail in sequence.
- Paginated reports timing out on large datasets.
How emergency response works
Every emergency call follows a defined triage process. Speed matters. We do not keep you waiting for escalation queues.
- Minute 1–15: EPC Group engineer joins your incident call. Reviews error logs and admin center alerts.
- Minute 15–60: Root cause identified. Workaround or fix applied. Service restored or mitigated.
- Hour 1–4: Full resolution confirmed. Refresh schedules verified. RLS and security validated.
- Within 24 hours: Written incident summary delivered. Permanent fix or capacity recommendation issued.
Power BI capacity: right-sizing your environment
Many emergency outages trace back to undersized capacity. Know your SKU options.
- F2 ($263/mo) — small workloads. Up to ~30 reports. 4 GB memory.
- F4 ($526/mo) — mid-market deployments. Refresh windows under 10 minutes.
- F64 ($5,257/mo) — enterprise scale with full Microsoft Fabric stack.
Capacity right-sizing should be reviewed every 90 days. Microsoft adjusts F-SKU memory allocations and Direct Lake mode availability with each major service update.
Ongoing Power BI managed services
Emergency response is reactive. Managed services prevent emergencies. EPC Group Power BI Managed Services includes:
- 24/7 dataset refresh monitoring with automated alerts.
- Monthly performance tuning (DAX optimization).
- Security and governance audits.
- License optimization reviews.
- Allocated hours for new report development.
Frequently asked questions
How fast does EPC Group respond to a Power BI emergency?
Our target response time for critical emergencies is 15 minutes. An engineer joins your incident call, reviews error logs, and begins diagnosis immediately — without routing you through a support ticket queue.
What Power BI issues qualify as emergencies?
Critical emergencies include production dashboards down, data refresh failures affecting regulatory reporting, security breaches, gateway failures, capacity crashes, and outages blocking executive decisions or compliance deadlines.
Do I need a managed services contract for emergency support?
No. EPC Group provides emergency support on a time-and-materials basis. Managed services clients receive priority response and lower hourly rates. Contact us to discuss the right arrangement for your organization.
Can you fix a Power BI issue remotely?
Yes. Nearly all Power BI emergencies are resolved remotely. Our engineers access the Power BI admin center, Power BI Desktop, and your Azure environment via secure remote session. On-site work is rarely needed for Power BI incidents.
What causes most Power BI capacity crashes?
The most common causes are undersized F-SKU or Premium capacity, too many concurrent refresh jobs, poorly optimized DAX measures consuming excessive memory, and large paginated reports scheduled during peak hours.
