Dashboard Design for Operations Visibility
Apr 27, 2023 | 7 min read | Digital Melons Insights Team
How to design operations dashboards that improve decision speed instead of overwhelming teams with raw metrics.
Dashboards should reflect operational decisions, not data availability. Start with action questions and map metrics only after ownership is clear.
Use alert tiers and status summaries to surface immediate priorities. Teams move faster when the interface highlights what needs intervention first.
Review dashboard usage monthly. Remove low-value widgets and refine high-impact views based on real operator behavior.
