As the usefulness of any visualization tool is dependent upon the information being visualized – Garbage In, Garbage Out (better looking garbage is till just garbage) – the following must be achieved before visualization and dissemination of information is undertaken;

  • Ensure that information is C.A.V.E. compliant
  • Development of reporting views that make sense for the business
  • Hierarchical data and group structure definition
  • End-user aggregation levels - each user will have a different need i.e. a Board Member will not be concerned with a potential or actual $1,000 loss but in a chain of losses exceeding $10,000 per day for a business area
  • Timeliness of collection and collation of information to be visualized (per second, daily, weekly, monthly)
  • Alert and escalation procedures including notification tree structure and delivery mechanism (Instant Messaging, Portal, Email etc…)
  • Key Performance/ Risk Indicator metrics and thresholds, which may be derived from other information, must be defined. These may include metrics around;
    • Process improvement (such as 6 Sigma or TQM)
