Project and governance dashboard

Navigating the unified SmartERP Project Dashboard for executive oversight, active sprint burndowns, commercial margin analysis, and portfolio health monitoring.

The SmartERP Project Dashboard (smarterp_project_dashboard) aggregates data from projects, tasks, sprints, budgets, and timesheets into a single executive command center. It eliminates manual spreadsheet reporting by computing real-time indicators directly from operational database records.

Core dashboard metrics#

Project Executive KPI and Portfolio Performance Dashboard

The dashboard interface presents four primary executive KPI domains:

  1. Portfolio Health & Governance:
    • Active Governed Projects: Total projects currently progressing through Gates 0 to 4.
    • Gate Progression Status: Count of projects at each stage gate.
    • High-Risk Items: Open risks in the RAID register with risk exposure score exceeding critical thresholds.
  2. Sprint & Agile Execution:
    • Active Sprints: Total agile sprints currently running across engineering teams.
    • Average Velocity: Story points delivered across completed sprints over the trailing 90 days.
    • Open Blockers: Count of tasks marked blocked, grouped by SLA urgency.
  3. Commercial Margins & Budget Variance:
    • Total Budget Baseline vs EAC: Cumulative planned budgets against current Estimate at Completion forecasts.
    • Projects in Warning / Critical: Count of projects exceeding cost baseline tolerance.
    • Normalized Commercial Margin: Net profitability after labor recovery and vendor costs.
  4. Capacity & Resource Utilization:
    • Logged vs Planned Hours: Timesheet compliance percentage for the current week.
    • Resource Outlook: SQL-view projection (project.resource.outlook) linking future planned task hours against available team capacity.

Interactive charts and drill-down#

Built with modern Owl components (project_dashboard_charts.esm.js), the dashboard enables instant drill-downs:

  • Clicking on a Gate Status bar filters the project list to projects awaiting sign-off at that specific gate.
  • Clicking on the Budget Overrun card navigates directly to the variance ledger of affected projects.
  • Clicking on an Active Sprint card opens the live Kanban board for that sprint.

Tip

The dashboard data is calculated using a single-record cache (project.dashboard) that refreshes automatically when underlying project or task states change, guaranteeing zero performance impact during peak hours.
