Requirements

Core need

It is to provide KPI and Supply Chain Geography reporting for Arden Trucking Project.

List of KPIs

Cost and Value KPIs:
- Cost per pound
- Total cost
- Value on Hold

Time KPIs:
- Created to Approved
- Created to Hold
- Approved to Routed
- Routed to Pick Up
- Pick up to Delivery
- On hold

General Design Concepts for Dashboard Reports

Please note that information in this section represents just ideas. At the programming stage this design could be used or/and (partially) replaced with a better design.

Multiple levels. Reporting for each KPI should have several levels. User should be presented with a KPI on a dashboard level (minimal info) and be able to drill down to more finite details (down to the load / CT details).

Standardization. For every KPI approach to UI design should be similar in principle and as standard as possible.

Report types. For every KPI provide the following report types:

dashboard version (Level 1)
KPI as a function of time (Level 2)
KPI as a function of various variables such as CT fields; for example: Carrier, Shipper, Origin State, etc (Level 2)
line / bar / pie versions

Interactivity. Level 2 reports should be interactive. For example if user clicks the bar representing cost of UPS on Level 2 report then system should take user to Level 3 where he will see only UPS loads.

Filters (Level 2 and 3). Provide set of standard filters. Ideally every CT field should be represented by a filter. Use multiselect filters where appropriate.

Level 3 (Load and CT level) report. For this type of report (ideally):

columns should cover all CT fields
user should be able to manage order of columns and what columns are included and what are excluded
provide "HTML version" with standard paging, sort, search capabilities (phase 2?)
provide export to excel feature (phase 2?)

Personalization. Some settings should be configured in a user or / and Client profile. Examples:

some users might want to see year-to-date cost on a dashboard and some month-to-date cost and some daily cost.
not all users would want to see all dashboards (controlled by user or admin? phase 2?)

Supply Chain Geography. This should be a Google type interactive map with the following capabilities:

show pick up locations with Cost Per Pound and Total Cost KPIs info for each individual location
show delivery locations with Cost Per Pound and Total Cost KPIs info for each individual location
show pick up/delivery clusters with number of locations/loads in a cluster
map should have a set of standard Filters
zoom in/out feature
ability to set an "abstract" look and feel (only major cities / state borders should be on the map, no other details)
ability to see both number of locations and number of loads for every cluster on the map at the same time

Example of Level 1: Dashboard

If user clicks on any number on dashboard system will take it to the Level 2

Example of Level 2: Axis X is time

If user clicks on any specific area of the plot then system will take user to the Level 3 and display information related to that area.

Example of Filters Panel

All reports will contain a standard set of filters - see below.

Example of Level 2: Axis X is Selected Carriers and Report type is Bar Chart

If user clicks on any specific area of the plot then system will take user to the Level 3 and display information related to that area. For example if user clicks on UPS bar then on Level 3 we will see only UPS loads.

Example of Level 3: Load and CT level

Formulas and Mappings

Formulas and mapping for Cost KPIs

Total cost:

Total cost for day X = Cost of all loads delivered on day X

Cost per pound:

Cost per pound for load = (cost of load) / (weight of load in pounds)

Cost Per Pound for day X
   = Cost of all loads delivered on day X / total weight of these loads

Average Estimated Cost Per Pound of YRC in November 
   = Cost of all loads handled in November by YRC / total weight of these loads

Note about passing loads and cost to CT2 from TMS

Please note that to accommodate these requirements we would need to:

pull cost and load info from Descartes messages and save into CT2
add Load class to CT2 with cost field

Requirements for Specific KPIs

Cost per pound KPI

Formulas

Cost per pond for load = (cost of load) / (weight of load in pounds)

Average Estimated Cost Per Pound of Arden Domestic Trucking Operation in November 
   = Cost of all loads handled in November / total weight of these loads

Average Estimated Cost Per Pound of YRC in November 
   = Cost of all loads handled in November by YRC / total weight of these loads

Cost Per Pound for day X
  = Cost of all loads delivered on day X / total weight of these loads

Daily change for all carriers report on a dashboard

Daily change per company plot

Cost per pound change for current week plot

Cost per pound per Carrier

Cost per pound per month

Cost per pound per Load

Total cost KPI

Total cost on a dashboard

Total cost per Month bar chart

Total cost per Load

Average times KPI

Create reports for analysis of various average times:

Planning (by Planner)
- Created to approved
- Created to hold
Routing (by Jaguar)
- approved to routed
Scheduling (by Carrier)
- routed to pick up
In transit (by Carrier)
- pick up to delivery

Also

On hold
- Average time on hold

Formulas and mapping for Time KPIs

All numbers below should have 2 decimals.

KPIs below are measures in time elapsed (in days) between 2 dates in the system.

For dates that may be set and re-set use earliest or lates date - whichever is available in the system. Example: for Created to Hold - measure from created to first/last time on hold.
