Enterprise Dashboard Module

“The Dashboard is very user friendly. I was able to set up basic functionality without any training. Before I had the Dashboard I had to review over 170 unique pieces of data every day. The Dashboard gives me everything I need for each product on one screen, with color-coded exception notices. I can see at a glance where to focus my attention. The Dashboard has been a big benefit.” Armand DeSollar |

Sample applications
GainSeeker Enterprise Dashboard makes data more visible to persons at all levels of your organization. From process owners to senior management, GainSeeker Enterprise Dashboard summarizes and filters data so that only relevant data comes to the user's attention.
OEE Dashboard - The Enterprise Dashboard Rich Client generates KPI dial and bar gages with up-to-date performance data. Below, a cookie manufacturer tracks Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) for three production lines, as well as a summary for the entire plant. Users can drill into any of the metrics reported on these gages to see root cause analysis.

Electronic Components Manufacturer - Leading supplier of audio amplifiers uses Enterprise Dashboard as an integral part of real-time production information system. GainSeeker extracts production and quality data from several disparate data sources and automatically displays the information on a web page. At the end of each line on the factory floor, a LCD projector displays this web page on an enormous screen. Everyone on the line can see at a glance how they are doing against targets for production and quality.
Food Manufacturer - A leading US producer of pet food products use Enterprise Dashboard to track MAV compliance and weight control. Additionally, the company tracks Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) with data collected through GainSeeker Suite and reported on web page dashboards.

Summarize and Drill Down
One of the challenges for many dashboard applications is that the data must be manually loaded into a spreadsheet before it can be displayed. This is a time-consuming and error prone process. And these systems don't connect to the underlying data sources so there is no way to drill down to the supporting detail data.
GainSeeker Enterprise Dashboard eliminates this problem because it is built on the GainSeeker Suite Database. Underlying data is never more than a click or two away. Thanks to GainSeeker's robust data acquisition and real-time analysis engine, you can be confident that the detailed data housed in the GainSeeker data warehouse is clean, timely and accurate. And once you have detailed data, GainSeeker's robust analysis capabilities makes it easy to drill down to root cause. [Top]
Types of dashboards
The Enterprise Dashboard generates three distinct types of dashboards: Real Time Failure Dashboards, Key Process Indicator (KPI) Dashboards, and Summary Statistics Dashboards.
Real Time Failure Dashboards summarize current system failures. Color-coded cells indicate nature of real time failure reason.

Columns can be defined by any time period. Rows can be defined by product, Critical x/Y, Department, Cell, or other criteria.
Cell contents can include descriptive and summary statistics such as mean, capability, or record count. You can also display Sparkline graphics to show trends over time. Sparklines pack a tremendous amount of information in a tiny space.
Set timers so the dashboard refreshes itself automatically at predetermined times.
Right-click on any cell to see a legend summarizing the real time failures. Or select to draw an up-to-the minute control chart of the data.
Key Process Indicator (KPI) Dashboards graphically portray key performance metrics. User-configurable dial and bar gages make it easy to see at a glance how a process is perfoming.

KPI Dashboards give you a powerful graphical representation of the current state of the process. Choose to display data in either a dramatic speedometer-style gage or a easy-to-read bar gage. Scaling, colors, and dozens of other graphical elements are all user-defineable. Put either type on the same form.
Labels, including font types and sizes, can be customized. Not only that, labels can include both static and dynamic text.
Furthermore, just like with the other dashboards, you can set timers so the dashboard automatically refreshes itself. And you can quickly and easily drill down into the data.
KPI dashboards also allow you to mix all types of data (variable or attribute, manufacturing or transactional) in one form.

Summary Statistics Dashboards are a unique innovation from the team at Hertzler Systems. Need to see a list of all the processes where the yield has fallen below some set level? Would it be helpful to know all the products that have any instability or where the Cpk has fallen below some specific target? Sparklines show process trends over time. The Summary Statistics Dashboards deliver that kind of powerful information.
Of course all the other features of the other dashboards are available here too: automatically refresh the dashboards at set intervals, drill down to the detail at just a few keystrokes, and so forth. [Top]
Desktops
Enterprise Dashboard lets you save any combination of dashboards as a Desktop. The Desktop makes it easy to set up view for individual users so they can quickly and easily get to the view of the data that they need for their job. Build custom desktops of process owners, department managers, or senior executives. [Top]
Client and Server Editions available

The Client Edition of Enterprise Dashboard is part of the GainSeeker Suite. The client edition links to the corporate data source, but is designed for use on a single computer. Users can readily send data to other applications including Excel, Word, HTML pages and email.
Enterprise Dashboard is also part of GainSeeker Suite Server Edition. Server Edition includes all the functionality of the Client Edition, and also supports XML/HTML. This enables users to automatically post dashboards on a corporate web site where they can be viewed in a browser without purchasing any additional software.
