While companies are taking the strategic decision to go paperless, more and more are looking into business intelligence to take benefit of stored information. Final goal is to identify science challenges upfront and to manage projects using measurable KPIs. In this case study we are going to use plots and visual tables to:
- check projects productivity
- analyze company pipeline status
- compare users productivity
- extract project metrics
This visualization is an example of a dashboard designed to support the development of new catalysts to optimise a manufacturing process in the oil and gas industry. New catalysts are synthesised and submitted to the chemical Registration for checking if the chemical structure is unique, upon which it is given a unique identification/batch ID number. The catalyst is then subjected to a series of tests, each conducted by disparate users acround the environment. Tests include chemical proeprty testing and calculations, stability testing, particle size analysis and testing of production runs, varying the process parameters within the run. These tests are all collected within experiments in the E-Notebook.
