VBC DASHBOARD is a customizable solution presented to today’s knowledge workers that consoli-dates and integrates data whether personal, departmental or even external into one single portal. It brings a consolidated view of an organization’s knowledge sources to the end user & provides immediate access to key business information.
The highly user-friendly dashboard uses the latest Rich Internet Application (RIA) technologies and empowers each user with a role-based-access and custom defined tabs thus tailoring the applications accord-ing to his field of interest.
Content management, reporting and media are examples of applications hosted in pods and available on the two VBC Dashboard versions, the web and the desktop. Those applications can work separately or together to create powerful vertical solutions.
VBC Dashboard’s ultimate aim is to create paperless offices where data and individuals connect anywhere and at any time. VBC Dash-board is now deployed in multi-million dollar projects of over 40 countries worldwide and covering an array of disciplines such as oil and gas, construction, education, health, safety and environment.

User Authentication
VBC Dashboard’s security architecture allows two methods of private access to users; either by using their company’s Windows domain account, or by logging their credentials separately through the VBC authentication mode.
When using a Windows based authentication, a “Pass Through” feature is integrated to extract the Windows account credentials of the user and to then validate his or her eligibility to access the application.
In the event that a user is not part of the organization’s network VBC Dashboard grants him a limited public access to its own system and authenticates him as a “Guest” where pre-defined rules and content is granted.

Dashboard Administration and Role Based Access
Each Dashboard has a dedicated super user (referenced here as the Dashboard Administrator). The administrator is responsible for handling major operations. One of which is the ability to manage layouts. More specifically, an administrator can add, delete and configure view and access rights for the tabs editting and assigning pods’ types. Another operation for the dashboard administrator is enabling the Public Access Mode, configuring gadget layouts, data sources and settings.
Accordingly, the Dashboard administrator has full control over what the normal user can see.
Composition
VBC Dashboard’s main layout is user driven with a friendly interface composed of TABS containing PODS.A pod is a window-like wireframe that hosts an application, image, or other media within it. The hosted content within a pod is referred to as a gadget. Dashboard users can easily manage the visual composition of their personal gadgets by dragging, maximizing and minimizing pods to best fit their needs.

Gadgets
Gadgets are applications loaded within Dashboard pods, which, in turn, provide the wireframe that defines the gadgets’ position and layout within a tab.
In addition to default gadgets, the Dashboard can host custom developed gadgets that allow extensible customiza-tion and powerful functionality.
These gadgets empower employees to perform day to day tasks of various types including those shipped by default within the Dashboard and those custom created by users.

Reporting & Data Visualization Gadgets
Chart Gadgets
The Dashboard is empowered by a rich business intelligence reporting engine, where the user can analyze multiple chart types and hence visualize data allowing better and quicker business decision making. The Dashboard user has the ability to navigate from summarized data into a more specific level of information by employing the Multi-levels (Drill Down) technique. In order to provide users with maximum usability, the VBC Dashboard was supplied with a built-in Crystal report viewer permitting the users to view reports without having to install the application on their machines.
Pivot Chart
The VBC Pivot Chart is a powerful business intelligence solution. It retrieves data from SASS Cubes and displays them in dynamic tables and charts. The pivot chart is customizable and dynamic, provides fast calculations, supports drilling down and rolling up (slicing and dicing the cubed) and can also be used to generate user-specific reports.
Gauges
The Gauges Gadget is a powerful report-ing gadget that allows users to track important fluctuating data stream in real time. This is achieved by monitoring various types of miniature gauge-like indicators which are custom configured by the dashboard administrator.Gauges can be used to present data in a visually intuitive and attractive way.

Organization Gadget
The Organization gadget can model and present hierarchal data such as Employee Structure. Its features include:
Multiple model relationships. Ability to skip levels. Drill Down/Up from one organization chart to another by clicking on nodes. (Example: drilling down into a department). Zooming, Panning, and Instant Filtering on all the nodes. Each node can contain a text and an image. The users can also access additional information for each node.
Custom Reporting
By using complex yet powerful SWF Authoring tools, custom reporting of complex data structure and models is attainable.These custom reports can cater for sophisticated business intelligence needs where data is linked to a live external data source (OLAP, SQL).

My Forms
Each workflow is instantiated by filling and submitting a form; which will be available in the “My Forms” list.
My Inbox
After instantiating a workflow, a series of tasks need to be completed in order to successfully finish the workflow. The item "My Inbox" displays a series of tasks pend-ing the user's completion. Once a task is selected, a form is opened and upon successful submission of the form, the task is completed.
My running Workflows
Similarly, "My Running Workflows" returns a list of running processes or work-flows in the system. Upon clicking on one of those items, the workflow is displayed and the user has the ability to track the progress of the workflow he instantiated and contributed in.

DPMS: Document Process Management System
DPMS is a design process management system. It defines a workflow that enables users to submit drawings or designs, and to package them for annotation, redlining, commenting, and collaboration. The workflow, then, moves to a stage of comment consolidation and review to issue and approve a final version of the submission.
Wind Energy: BI Solution
The Wind Energy BI solution is developed to turn the volumes of data collected from different Masts’ sensors, and installed on various sites into meaningful information. That information is analyzed and provided to decision makers who take the right actions accordingly. Decisions revolve around optimizing the environment to generate the maximum amount of energy. This is done after analyzing wind speed, direction, and humidity. In specific, the BI solution provided offers a consolidated and comprehensive suite of data analytics in order to assess data measurements from a number of angles accompanied by visual dynamic charting and using Dashboard as a front end.
ETS: Equipment Tracking System
The ETS vertical on Dashboard is designed to monitor and control equipment and vehicles outfitted with data and location-posting devices. This solution provides a graphical representation of available equipment and their associated data such as speed, RPM, fuel consumption and information on the operators of manned vehicles.

iRisk
iRisk is a Project Risk Management System that automates the risk process. It starts with the initiation phase and walking through identi-fication, assessment, response planning, till the review, control and project closeout. Using Dashboard’s powerful reporting tools, users will have a customized view of the areas of concern which include the number of risks and their distribution.
Other Vertical Applications
Other Verticals are available such as:
Atlas: Project Handover system Time management platform for employee tasks
Sell & Share: Light Client relationship management system CCM: Cost plus management system An HR Recruitment System and many more
Moreover, ETS allows real-time tracking of equipment as they move within their predefined geographical location referred to as Geofences. In case vehicles traverse their ass igned borders, the controller can react by scheduling certain preset actions for execu-tion. Moreover, ETS enables the controllers to view the equipment location history at any selected date.
