Betriebsdashboards

Betriebsdashboards are operational dashboards that provide real‑time or near real‑time visibility into key performance indicators of a company’s day‑to‑day activities. They collect data from source systems such as manufacturing executions, point‑of‑sale, inventory, logistics or human‑resources systems and consolidate it into a single visual interface. By displaying metrics and trends in a concise format, Betriebsdashboards enable managers to detect anomalies, track performance against targets, and make timely decisions without waiting for periodic reports.

Key characteristics include interactive charts, filtering capabilities, alerts and drill‑down functions that allow deeper exploration of underlying data. The information is often arranged on multiple screens or widgets tailored to distinct roles, such as production supervisors, supply‑chain planners or sales managers. Unlike strategy‑oriented executive dashboards, Betriebsdashboards focus on operational throughput, cycle times, quality rates, and resource utilisation, providing a snapshot of the business “now” rather than a long‑term perspective.

Implementing a Betriebsdashboard involves selecting relevant KPIs, ensuring data quality and availability, and designing a user‑friendly interface. Common best practices are to keep the dashboard simple, use data visualisation standards, and secure access based on roles. Many organizations integrate their dashboards into existing intranets or mobile devices, allowing operators to view dashboards on the shop floor. The outcome is faster detection of bottlenecks, improved resource optimisation, and a culture of continuous improvement supported by evidence‑based insights.
