Making Dashboards Useful Again. Part 0.

Have you ever used dashboards? You probably have, and not just once. Speedometer, tachometer, fuel and oil level indicators, clock, and GPS – this is a typical set of instrumentation that can be found on a car dashboard. Even though all of these indicators are present, an experienced driver feels the speed and engine rpm with sufficient accuracy without looking at the dashboard consistently. The dashboard is an important tool in the car, but not necessarily an irreplaceable one: we need all these indicators to be available while driving, but for 99% of the time they are superfluous.

Enterprise dashboard

This financila dashboard example was drawn on the base of the Enterprise dashboard from the Mecklenburg County Government website.
[charmeck.org/ mecklenburg/ county/ CountyManagersOffice/ OMB/ dashboards/ Pages/ Enterprise.aspx]
"In management information systems, a dashboard is "an easy to read, often single page, real-time user interface, showing a graphical presentation of the current status (snapshot) and historical trends of an organization’s key performance indicators to enable instantaneous and informed decisions to be made at a glance."
For example, a manufacturing dashboard may show key performance indicators related to productivity such as number of parts manufactured, or number of failed quality inspections per hour. Similarly, a human resources dashboard may show KPIs related to staff recruitment, retention and composition, for example number of open positions, or average days or cost per recruitment.
Types of dashboards.
Dashboard of Sustainability screen shot illustrating example dashboard layout.
Digital dashboards may be laid out to track the flows inherent in the business processes that they monitor. Graphically, users may see the high-level processes and then drill down into low level data. This level of detail is often buried deep within the corporate enterprise and otherwise unavailable to the senior executives.
Three main types of digital dashboard dominate the market today: stand alone software applications, web-browser based applications, and desktop applications also known as desktop widgets. The last are driven by a widget engine.
Specialized dashboards may track all corporate functions. Examples include human resources, recruiting, sales, operations, security, information technology, project management, customer relationship management and many more departmental dashboards.
Digital dashboard projects involve business units as the driver and the information technology department as the enabler. The success of digital dashboard projects often depends on the metrics that were chosen for monitoring. Key performance indicators, balanced scorecards, and sales performance figures are some of the content appropriate on business dashboards." [Dashboard (management information systems). Wikipedia]
