Building Early-Warning Compliance Dashboards
How I organise records, ownership, and exception checks in a compliance-monitoring workflow.

The Problem
When records are spread across inboxes and separate tools, missing updates can go unnoticed. A monitoring workflow needs clear definitions of what is due, who owns it, and what counts as an exception.
My Approach
- Define the records and signals to monitor.
- Standardise definitions and assign ownership.
- Set thresholds and exception checks.
- Review the alerts and adjust the workflow as teams use it.
The Purpose
A useful dashboard helps a team identify an issue and decide what to do next. Reporting is most valuable when the underlying records and responsibilities are clear.
