Frequently asked
Before you hire a Power Query freelancer.
How much does Power Query work cost?
Bands: ₹6K-₹15K for a single source cleanup, ₹15K-₹40K for a multi-source Power Query pipeline, and ₹40K+ for a full Power Query + Power Pivot data model. Fixed in writing before any work starts - see the pricing page.
Do you do Power Query + Power Pivot, or only Power Query?
Both, and the combination is where most engagement value lands. Power Query ingests and transforms; Power Pivot holds the compressed data model and runs DAX measures. The dashboard reads from the model - fast on millions of rows. We use both together when the data outgrows formula-only Excel.
Can you replace a slow SUMIFS dashboard with Power Query?
Yes - the most common Power Query engagement we run. A 200K-row dashboard with SUMIFS reacts in seconds; the same data in a Power Query summary Table refreshes in milliseconds. The migration is one engagement, not a project.
Will the Power Query pipeline break when the source columns change?
Only if you let it. We write queries against Table names and promoted headers, not hard-coded cell addresses - adding a column in a source file is just a refresh. If a column is renamed, the query still throws an error (good - you want to know), and the error message points you at the step.
