What This Excel Dashboard Gives You
Here’s the thing: this is a clean, practical Excel Dashboard built as a shareable Spreadsheet. It keeps your logistics management in one place, so a hands-on logistics manager can manage transport for a growing transportation network company without the chaos.
You’ll notice quick KPIs up top, fleet and trip insights in the middle, and a tidy log at the bottom. There’s also a small area for general notes—perfect for policy updates or reminders.
Filters & Context
Month Strip
Pick a month (or a few). Everything responds. In practice, it’s the fastest way to focus your fleet analysis.
Title & Subtitle
Clear context so the team knows exactly which transport network you’re looking at.
Top KPIs (Costs & Payroll)
Total Expenses
All running costs in one number—fuel, maintenance, tolls, even for hire transportation. Need to share it? Export in an excel format for expense reports.
Total Salaries & Total Wages
Fixed vs variable pay, side by side. The card shows a clean salary breakdown, so finance can read it at a glance.
Cost Share Gauges
Little donuts show what’s eating the budget. Great for quick fleet management cost analysis and weekly check-ins on financial performance.
People View (Driver & Buddy)
Quick Roster
Names and tiny trends. You’ll notice who’s having a busy month and who needs support.
Earnings by Trip Class
Close, Regular, Far—stacked bars show where compensation really comes from. Helpful when you’re balancing routes in advanced logistics work.
Trips & Network
Route Snapshot
A compact path preview. Not a full map—just enough to ground the story.
Distance & Direction
Total distance plus the split between return and one-way trips. In practice, this is where you spot empty backhauls before they snowball.
Trip Type Mix
A simple pie for Close / Regular / Far. It shows how demand shifts over time within your transportation network company.
Total Trips & Hired Transport
Two counters: what your fleet ran, and what you pushed to for hire transportation. Nice for capacity planning inside modern transportation management solutions.
Trends You Can Act On
Expenses by Month
Columns for costs. Spikes jump out, so you can act before month-end closes.
Trips by Month
A smooth line for activity. Pair it with costs to see cause and effect—simple, not fussy.
Cargo & Shipments
Cargo Type Bars
Which cargo categories keep you busy? The bars make it obvious and help with resource planning, routing, and tracking shipment patterns.
