Wanted to share our implementation of a mobile workforce analytics dashboard that gives field managers real-time access to team metrics. This was a game-changer for our distributed workforce of 500+ field managers who rarely access desktop systems.

The solution integrates Prism Analytics with custom REST API endpoints to deliver role-based workforce data directly to mobile devices. We implemented intelligent data caching to balance freshness with performance, and push notifications alert managers to critical workforce events like unexpected absences or overtime thresholds.

The dashboard displays headcount, turnover trends, absence rates, and productivity metrics specific to each manager’s team. All data respects role-based access controls, ensuring managers only see their direct reports’ information. Response time averages 1.2 seconds even with complex analytical queries, thanks to our caching strategy.
