For First Four, use following DAX formula and change the column to Whole Number
First Four = LEFT('Table'[Phase],4)
For Section, use following DAX formula
SWITCH(
TRUE(),
'Table'[First Four]<=250,"0-250",
'Table'[First Four]<=500,"251-500",
'Table'[First Four]<=750,"501-750",
'Table'[First Four]<=1000,"751-1000",
'Table'[First Four]<=1250,"1001-1250",
'Table'[First Four]=2000,"2000",
'Table'[First Four]=9000,"9000",
LEFT('Table'[First Four],4)
