Dashboard Platform You have a dashboard in your car don’t you? A quick glance at the dashboard in your car will instantly tell you your speed, amount of gas left and if there is a problem with your engine. What if you could do the same for your business, projects and other corporate processes? Well, now you can. The FindOut Dashboard Platform The FindOut Dashboard Platform is a technology to quickly design and develop efficient dashboard solutions. Built on a robust Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) you can start by implementing a few KPIs and then add more as you identify new metrics you want to observe. And once your dashboard has been designed, you can easily make the data available over your intranet or via the Internet. Not everyone wants to look at sales projections Our dashboard solution offers role-based views, i.e. people can have their dashboard views tailored to what they actually want to see. This allows Sales Managers to track sales figures, Production Managers to observe production line status, Project Managers to keep an eye on-going projects and for management to measure financial performance. You can’t manage what you don’t measure By implementing a dashboard solution you can quickly identify improvements in targeted areas. And more importantly, you can make a larger group pay attention because it’s so easy to understand the information presented. Let’s say that you have a problem with machine stoppage on your production line. By representing each machine with a traffic light (green or red) everyone can see if a certain piece of equipment isn’t working. Flexible visual objects Traffic lights are great dashboard items for many types of information but often you need more advanced objects. That’s why our dashboard solution supports all sorts of diagrams, charts, bars, speedometers, trend arrows, or any other type of object that can easily visualize the behavior of data. And of course it’s possible to create completely new types of dashboard objects. FEATURES Combine information from multiple systems. Role-base views. SOA-based architec- ture. Multiple pre-designed graphical objects. Adapt existing objects or create new ones. Built on open standards. Easily visualize Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). Make complex information accessible to a large group of people or even the whole company. A well-designed dashboard is a key component of any strategic improvement process. A quick glance at your dashboard can show how your business or project is performing without having to print and analyze reports and spreadsheets. FINDOUT PRODUCT DESCRIPTION VERSION 1.0 | 2007
