Managers need a short list of issues that require a decision, with enough evidence to follow them up. A wastewater dashboard should expose unresolved risk, overdue work and uncertainty in the underlying data.
Start with work awaiting confirmation
Show open critical events, unassigned actions and items carried across shifts. Link each item to a responsible person, current status and evidence. Separate acknowledged alerts from verified resolution.
Connect maintenance to operating impact
Review overdue work, repeated faults and equipment awaiting return-to-service approval. Link running hours and asset records where available. Avoid treating a completed checkbox as proof that the equipment is ready for use.
Compare costs with treatment context
View energy and chemical use alongside volume, operating mode and treatment results over matching periods. Explain scope and missing records. Total expenditure alone can change because of price or production volume.
Keep the review actionable
Select indicators with a clear owner and next step. Let users retrieve trends, records and work orders from the summary. Review the dashboard using real shift handovers and management questions before expanding it across facilities.
Records to check
| Record group | Evidence to review |
|---|---|
| Risk | Open events and assigned actions |
| Maintenance | Overdue tasks and verification |
| Data and cost | Coverage, comparison scope and source |
