Digital
Dashboards, or Executive Dashboards, are
business management tools used to visually
ascertain the status or health of a business or
division via key business indicators. Digital
Dashboards use visual, at-a-glance displays of
data pulled from disparate business systems to
provide warnings, action notices, next steps,
and summaries of business conditions.
Types of dashboards
Based on the metaphor of
the instrument panel in a car, the computer, or
"digital" version of a dashboard provides a
business manager with the input necessary to
"drive" the business. Devices such as
red/green/yellow lights, alerts, drill-downs,
summaries, graphics such as bar charts, pie
charts, bullet graphs, sparklines and gauges are
usually set in a portal-like environment that is
often role-driven and customizable.
Digital dashboards are making a comeback as part
of a corporate campaign to standardize data
sharing and performance measurement practices
across the enterprise. Designed to graphically
present multiple performance metrics across a
single screen, dashboards are touted by business
intelligence (BI) vendors as a cornerstone of a
sound corporate performance management strategy.
To determine if a dashboard is likely to deliver
ROI in a given environment, companies must
identify and target specific data access
challenges, carefully select metrics that are
reliable indicators of business goals, and
consider their existing technology assets to
estimate the total bill for an implementation.
Some may find that strategy and process, not
technology, can help resolve their data access
and performance measurement challenges.
