Refreshable reporting
Paste or import new data, refresh, done. No rebuilding the layout each cycle.
India · Pune · Excel dashboards
Plan versus actual is the dashboard that matters here, and it is only useful if the variance is broken down by reason code. A number without a reason just moves the argument to the daily meeting.

A typical job here
Budget 12–20 hours as a starting point. If what you send turns out larger, you hear about it during scoping rather than at the end.

Why Pune specifically
Clients for this are typically in Hinjawadi, Kharadi, Pimpri-Chinchwad and Baner, across automotive and auto components, engineering and capital goods, IT services and GCCs, and the shared-service centres run out of the city for global parents. Production planning, BOM costing and shop-floor reporting that matches reality.
For the wider picture of what we see in this market — the recurring problems, the source systems, how the time difference plays out — the Pune guide covers it properly rather than repeating it on every service page.

The detail view for the person doing the work, connected to the same source as the summary so they never disagree.
We ask what changes based on this dashboard. If nothing does, we say so before building it.
Each metric gets a written definition. This is where most of the disagreement lives, and it is cheaper to resolve now.

Questions
Answers for this service in this market, including the ones that might cost us the job.
Ask us something elseYes, provided the lag is shown rather than hidden. Reporting that distinguishes 'not yet entered' from 'no production' is honest; one that treats them the same is misleading.
Excel when a human needs to change assumptions and see the effect, or when the audience will not adopt another tool. Power BI when the data volume is large and the reporting is standardised. We will recommend against Excel when it is genuinely wrong for the job.
It matters for latency, not feasibility. We build for the data you actually have, including a lag, and make the lag visible in the reporting rather than pretending it is not there. Digitising capture is a separate conversation.
