Reporting

Why is the Reporting Module Necessary?

The reporting process at Mahi Construction was fragmented and inefficient.

 

Existing project management tools generated massive amounts of data, but users, including Project Managers, Team Leads, and Compliance Officers struggled to extract clear insights.

 

This made it difficult to track progress, report constraints, and communicate effectively across teams. As a result, decision-making was delayed, reporting was error-prone, and critical issues often went unresolved on time.

Who Are We Designing For?

The reporting module is for Project Managers, Team Leads, Compliance Officers, and Executives, each with unique needs: tracking progress, monitoring performance, ensuring compliance, and evaluating project health.

Meet Project Manager

Age: 30 - 45

Role: Project Manager in Construction and Operations

Profile:

Manages project timelines, resources, and task performance to keep projects on track.

Pain Points:

  • Difficulty consolidating data from multiple modules.

 

  • Limited flexibility with static reports.

  • Struggles to extract actionable insights.

  • Time-consuming manual reporting.

Meet Team Lead

Age: 28 - 50
Role: Team Supervisor or Shift Manager

Profile:

Oversees team performance, shift schedules, and daily task assignments.

Pain Points:

  • Lacks technical skills to generate reports.

  • Difficulty monitoring team progress efficiently.

  • Challenges in sharing clear performance updates.

  • Limited options for customizing team-specific reports.

Meet Compliance Officer

Age: 35 - 50
Role: Compliance and Safety Specialist

Profile:

Ensures projects meet safety standards, regulations, and legal requirements.

Pain Points:

  • Struggles to customize compliance reports.

  • Tools can’t handle growing compliance data.

  • Difficulty identifying risks or trends.

  • Inefficient sharing of audit-ready reports.

Meet Executive

Age: 35 - 60
Role: Senior Executive or Decision-Maker

Profile:

Relies on high-level summaries and KPIs to evaluate project performance and make decisions.

Pain Points:

  • Difficulty accessing unified project overviews.

  • Needs quick, clear insights without digging into data.

  • Delays caused by manual reporting processes.

  • Reporting tools lack scalability for complex demands.

What was the business saying?

Centralized insights for better decision making

Combine data across modules (Project Management, Shift Allocation, etc.) into a unified, easy-to-access reporting interface.

Save time and reduce manual reporting effort

Automate report generation with templates and real-time updates.

Improve adoption with user-friendly design

Offer a simple report builder for non-technical and advanced users.

Support compliance and transparency

Generate customizable reports to meet regulatory needs.

Enhance scalability and future growth

Start with core features and scale to advanced reporting capabilities.

Research and Competitor Analysis: Mapping Goals and Prioritizing Features

The goals of the indirect competitor systems research were to analyze reporting modules and explore functionalities related to data builders.

The findings from this detailed analysis focused on
identifying opportunities, mapping goals, and prioritizing features.

This research bridges the gap between end-user needs and business objectives, ensuring the reporting module aligns with both usability and strategic value.

Defining The MVP

Based on competitor research, end-user pain points, and business objectives, we applied the Impact vs. Effort framework to prioritize features. This method helped us identify key design priorities for the MVP and phase out complex features for the future roadmap.

Flows, Wireframes, and Whiteboard Section

We started with a high-level Information Architecture (IA) to establish the reporting module's structure, followed by developing user journeys to map the experience across key tasks.This was supported by a dynamic process that combined user flows, detailed wireframes, and notes for feature logic.

 

The result bridges the gap between flowcharts and wireframes, documenting feature behaviors, user interactions, and logical connections.

 

This approach ensures a clear, seamless, and intuitive experience for users as they navigate through report creation, customization, and management.
