Executive Insights
SERIES 4.0 FEATURE |
Overview
Executive Insights provides Senior Leaders and Executives with a dashboard that centralises ControliQ metrics.
It supports them in analysing operational performance to identify events they should react to, fires that need to be put out, potential risks to mitigate, events to celebrate and opportunities to improve.
The Executive Insights dashboard is available for workgroups of department or higher.

The Executive Insights dashboard displays key ControliQ metrics in individual panels

The Smoke, Fire, and Celebration panel helps senior leaders and executives monitor and respond to various operational events.
This panel highlights key metrics and categorises them into three distinct areas:
Fire, Represents urgent and critical issues that need immediate action. These are areas where performance is significantly off target and require prompt intervention to mitigate risks and resolve problems.
Smoke, Indicates potential issues that may not yet be critical but require attention to prevent escalation. It helps leaders identify and address these early signs of trouble before they become major problems.
Celebration, Highlights achievements and positive performance metrics. This allows leaders to recognise and celebrate successes, boosting morale and reinforcing positive behaviours within the teams.
Depending on the workgroups data pre-defined rules in ControliQ will prompt different messages to appear within the panel:

The Fly by Five panel displays the five key metrics for the previous 30 or 90 days and applies a red, amber or green status to them based on the tolerances and targets set for the workgroup in the Fly by Five dashboard.
Remember the Executive Insights Dashboard is reviewing these key metrics for the previous 30 or 90 days whereas the Fly by Five Dashboard is reviewing these key metrics by week, calendar month or calendar quarter so the values shown in the 2 dashboards will differ as they are based on different date ranges.

The time breakdown panel provides a graphical view in FTE of how much working time has been available for the workgroup in the past 30 or 90 days and how this time has been utilised.

Staff Complement |
= Staff Complement + Temporary + Variable Staff |
Flexitime |
= Total captured Positive Flexitime + total captured Negative Flexitime |
Overtime |
= Total captured Overtime |
Total Paid Time FTE |
= Staff Complement + Temporary + Variable + Overtime |
Downtime (Annual Leave) |
= Total captured Annual Leave |
Downtime (Other) |
= National Holiday + total captured all other Downtime categories |
Time Available |
= Total Staff Complement (including temporary and variable staff) + Flexitime + Overtime +/- resource Loaned and Borrowed from outside the selected workgroup – Downtime |
Diverted Time |
= Total captured Diverted Time |
Core Time |
= Total Time Available – Total Diverted Time |

The Performance by Location panel compares productivity and utilisation when employees are working from different locations, such as 'in office' versus 'home'. This comparison can reveal if location impacts work efficiency.
The panel details the percentage of total time worked logged to each of the work location options.
The graphs provide a view of the productivity and utilisation achieved during the captured hours for Office and Remote working.

The My area panel provides a quick snapshot of the selected workgroup, its size, average span of control and insight into loaning and borrowing.
-
Number of staff members – The number of staff members linked to the teams within the workgroup.
-
No of teams - The number of teams linked to the workgroup.
-
Average team size - The average number of team members linked to teams within the selected workgroup.
-
Lend / borrow - The amount of time spent lent or borrowed as a percentage of the time worked.
