Introduction

The Olympic Training Center Berlin is one of 17 elite sports centers in Germany and supports performance-oriented athletes from numerous disciplines. In addition to modern training facilities, athletes have access to sports science, medical, and psychological support.

To better track training developments, the evaluation of performance data needed to become simpler, faster, and more meaningful. Together with MDIS, a Power BI solution was developed to provide coaches with clear and directly actionable analyses.

With the Power BI solution, we are able to create individual evaluations with just a few clicks. This allows recommendations to be derived significantly faster.

Challenge

  • Extensive performance data was available – but difficult to compare
  • A clear system for displaying progress was missing
  • Coaches required quick insights for training decisions
  • Age and sport comparisons were only possible with great effort

Solution Approach

Together with the Olympic Training Center Berlin, a Power BI solution was developed, consisting of three central analysis reports:
  • Spider Chart (Radar Chart)
    Shows an athlete’s strengths and areas for development at a glance, based on sport and gender.
    → Direct overview of performance areas and development.
  • Bar Chart for Percentile Comparisons
    Enables comparisons with athletes from other sports and age groups through flexible selection of comparison groups.
    → Uniform and fair performance assessment.
  • Sparkline Chart for Temporal Development
    Displays changes in test results over multiple points in time.
    → Trends become visible, and training measures can be specifically adjusted.

Results & Benefits

  • Clearer performance development through visual representation
  • Comparability between athletes, groups, and time periods
  • Faster derivation of training measures
  • More efficient use of existing performance data
  • Better transparency for coaches and athletes

Why this solution is convincing

  • Performance data becomes understandable and tangible
  • Decisions are based on objective key figures
  • Coaches can provide more targeted support
  • Athletes see their development clearly and comprehensibly

Technical & Operational Highlights

  • Power BI as a central platform for performance analysis
  • Three defined report types for comparison, ranking, and temporal development
  • Flexible selection of comparison groups (sport, age, period)
  • Automated visualization without manual data preparation
  • Transparent decision-making bases for training & development
