5 Steps to Ensuring a Successful Digital Dashboard

1) Clearly define who is your user audience• What is their role?• What kind of decisions do they make?• What kind of information do they need to make these decisions?

2) Gather and analyze existing data and reporting tools• What kind of data are you collecting today?• What kind of gaps in the data or reports exist? • What are other sources for this information?• Can you make assumptions when the data doesn’t exist?• Decide if you need to correlate or consolidate the data?

3) Ensure that user interface design is a collaborative process• How should the data be displayed to be meaningful and quick to read?• How often will the data need to be updated?• Do you need to consider designing for mobile and tablets?

4) Don’t let technology lead: try before you buy• What are the limitations of the technology platform?• Is the technology platform prepared to support your development without a large upfront investment?

5) Realize that it’s just the beginning…• Does the dashboard achieve the user’s expectations?• Do you have a plan to append new data sources?• Can you measure an ROI?• What are the new ways to visualize data?
