The ability of key decision makers' to continuously monitor a company's
vital signs is now a requirement of the high performing enterprise.
Executive Dashboards are the best mechanism yet developed for delivery
of these vital signs, or "Key Performance Indicators."
Not all dashboard technologies are created equal. Derived from
complex operational data pulled from multiple sources, KPI's are
often too complex for the average proprietary dashboard product
to model without extensive programming code and customization. A3
Dashboards are distinguished by their "no limits" Excel
modeling flexibility: KPI's that appear on Executive Dashboards
are the tip of the modeling iceberg. Since A3 Dashboards leverage
our unique Spreadsheet Automation Server technology, the administrator
has the flexibility to access multiple datasources and derive complex
results without writing programming code.
Executive Dashboard Features Include:
- Faster decision cycle times
- Distribute KPI information directly to executives and key
decision makers
- Continuous visibility to KPI's and corporate performance.
Even complex dashboard data derived from elaborate underlying
spreadsheets and databases is continuously updated to users'
Web browsers
- Dashboards are highly personalized and relevant to the individual
user
- Productivity
- As flexible and easy to design as spreadsheets. No programming
required
- Easy to learn, even for busy executive users
- Create highly sophisticated composite KPI's based on data
from multiple datasources including leading OLAP and relational
databases
- Design corporate scorecarding systems
- From A3 dashboards, one click drops you into interactive
reports and ad-hoc analysis to discover further detail
- Security
- Full database, application, and portal level security. Dashboard
distribution and security is controlled centrally, as with
all reports and models delivered through A3 Modeling
- Rich "no limits" presentation flexibility
of Excel
- Full exploitation of the Spreadsheet Automation Server.
Leverage Excel skills to deliver the most complex financial
and operational data possible
- What-You-See-Is-What-You-Get (WYSIWYG) presentation: While
A3 dashboards are presented in the browser, they are designed
in the familiar and infinitely flexible Excel spreadsheet
environment. There is no limit to the richness of the graphs,
charts, reports, and models that can be continuously displayed
and updated on the dashboard
- Drilldown, drill-through, slice & dice
- Drill down to underlying detail. Access related reports
and ad-hoc analysis capability with the click of the mouse
