Using CALCULATE when filter removes all data

I got the following example

 

ProviderProjectLicitationOrder
1AX1
1A-2
1BY3
2B--
2BZ-
3A-4
3C-5
3C-6

 

And i want a matrix/pivot table that counts for each provider how many projects/licitations/order has been involved in (not counting it therefore when a  "-" appears).

 

The thing is that if I filter out directly these value, whenever a "-" appears for any column it will filter out all the row. Counting only the rows that contains value in all three columns (not even that because provider 3 should get all 0 based on that logic...):

 

PROVIDERPROJECTSLICITATIONSORDERS
1222
2111
3111

 

Using a new measure using =CALCULATE for each column throws an error, because for example for provider 3 if you filter out "-" on licitation you filter out everything and gets empy.

 

How would I fix it?

 

The final result should look like:

 

PROVIDER# of PROJECTS# of LICITATIONS# of ORDERS
1223
2110
3203

@jgtirz Maybe 3 measures:

 

# of PROJECTS = COUNTROWS('Table') + 0

# of LICITATIONS = COUNTROWS(FILTER('Table',[Licitation]<> "-")) + 0

# of ORDERS = COUNTROWS(FILTER('Table',[Order] <> "-")) + 0
