The approach

From question
to something useful.

Start with the questions

Understand who will use the report, what they need to decide and which information helps them take action.

Give the information structure

Group related measures, make definitions clear and choose visual formats suited to the question.

Make it useful in practice

Consider filters, context, accessibility and how people will use the reporting experience as part of their work.

The mockup illustrates an approach and an area of practice.
