In layman’s terms, performance metrics (such as information about deadlines, sprint goal progress, sales or budget goals) create a strong sense of ownership and belonging, including:
- Transparency around the success and failure of the company
- Individual contribution to company goals
- Empowerment to make data-driven decisions (or empowerment to invest more effort in their role)
The importance of sharing what matters
Successfully sharing company data relies on both transparency and efficiency. In other words, it’s key that your team has access to data that will both motivate them and positively influence how they do their job; without creating unnecessary messaging clutter or noise. The sales department doesn’t necessarily need to see the rate at which products leave the conveyor belt, and vice versa.
When it comes to deciding what to share, make sure you consider these parameters:
Align and motivate
Data should align and motivate your team by bringing them on the company’s journey, such as remind them how the data relates to your
company’s vision and purpose!
Set performance expectations
Data should set performance expectations.
For example what’s the baseline OOE that the
current team on shift can compare their performance to?
Show real-time data
To be truly meaningful, data should be shared as close to real-time as possible.
Be meaningful
Key metrics should be presented in a meaningful way, easy to understand and act on.
Sharing complex data shouldn’t be a complex task

Let’s face it – data is powerful; but it’s not easy to ‘free’ those benefits from spreadsheets, enterprise grade dashboards and data warehouses and hubs.
At Vibe.fyi, we’re on a mission to take the headache out of sharing data with your manufacturing teams.
Years of working to help large organisations communicate with hard-to-reach workers (those who don’t sit at their desks, like yours) has taught us that to achieve cut-through, messaging needs to stand out and be actively placed in front of the workforce. Data is no different – it has to be brought to life in a meaningful, visual and vibrant format.
Vibe.fyi has become an essential tool for many companies with a large workforce who need to present complex data to their teams. Vibe.fyi
transforms data (in many cases automatically) into high impact visuals, presented in a snackable format,
and with immediacy so that information is easily understood and retained.
Seamless integration within your digital workplace (i.e. SharePoint, Power BI, Yammer,
Facebook Workplace, MicroStrategy and others) and customer satisfaction data (Ask Nicely,
Customer Radar, Qualtrics and others) means content delivery can be automated and presented via digital
screens and (if employees have them) screensavers and the default browser home page.
Using Vibe.fyi to visualise data insights allows you to:
- Connect employees who work away-from-their-desk with data that’s crucial to their performance using large-format digital signage in warehouses and workshops.
- Actively put dynamic content in front of employees
- Increase the reach and retention of information
- Present data in near-real time
