Dashboards · Boise & Idaho

Custom business dashboards for Idaho companies.

If you only find out how the day went after someone tallies it up, you're running on yesterday's numbers. buildplatform builds custom dashboards for Boise and Idaho businesses that show what's happening right now, to the right people, with reports that add themselves up.

Why a custom dashboard

One screen that tells you how the business is doing.

Off-the-shelf reporting tools show you what they were built to show. A custom dashboard shows what you care about, using the words your team already uses.

Live numbers, not end-of-month surprises

Data updates as work happens: a check-in, a sale, a transfer. Managers see problems while there's still time to fix them.

Each person sees their part

Owners see everything. Managers see their location. Staff see the tasks in front of them. Role-based access keeps it simple and keeps sensitive numbers private.

Reports that build themselves

Nightly settlements, weekly summaries and end-of-shift totals are calculated for you. Nobody stays late to reconcile a spreadsheet.

Works on the floor, not just at a desk

Dashboards are designed for phones and tablets too, because your team is on the move.

Fed by the tools you already use

Where your current systems allow it, we pull their data in so nobody has to type it twice.

What goes into a dashboard

Built from the pieces your team actually needs.

We start with the questions you ask every day, then design the screens that answer them. Most dashboards combine all three of these.

01

Live Operations View

A real-time picture of activity across people, places or jobs, with status at a glance and alerts when something needs attention.

Real-time updates Multi-location views Status and alerts
All web app services
02

Roles & Permissions

Separate views and permissions for admins, managers and staff, so everyone sees exactly what they need and nothing they shouldn't.

Role-based access Per-location permissions
03

Reporting

Daily, weekly and end-of-shift reports that pull from the same live data, so the numbers always agree.

Automatic settlements and totals Exportable reports
From $4,850
Case study

A multi-venue operations hub, live every night.

For a multi-location hospitality group, we built one real-time operations platform that runs every venue, every night. It's the clearest example of what a custom dashboard can do: many roles, many locations, one set of live numbers. [placeholder: client's starting situation before the platform]

How we build it

From the questions you ask to the screen that answers them.

A first working version usually lands in 6–12 weeks, then grows in phases.

01

List the questions

"How did each location do tonight?" "Who's on shift?" We write down what you need to know and how often.

02

Find the data

We map where each number lives today, whether that's another tool, a spreadsheet or someone's head, and how to capture it cleanly.

03

Design the views

We sketch each role's screen and test it with the people who'll use it, before writing a line of code.

04

Launch & refine

We launch, watch which screens get used, and add reports and views as your needs grow.

Pricing

Dashboards from $4,850, quoted per phase.

We'll scope your dashboard on a call and give you a fixed quote for the first phase.

Plan your dashboard
How much does a custom dashboard cost?
Custom dashboards start at $4,850. Cost depends on the number of roles, data sources and reports. We usually build in phases, with a fixed quote for each.
Can the dashboard pull data from our existing software?
Often, yes. If a tool you use can share its data, we can usually bring it in. If it can't, we'll help your team capture that information inside the dashboard instead.
Is a custom dashboard better than an off-the-shelf reporting tool?
Not always. If a ready-made tool shows what you need, we'll tell you. Custom makes sense when your process is unusual, spans several locations, or needs different views for different roles.
Can different staff see different information?
Yes. Role-based access is built in. Owners, managers and staff each get their own view, and permissions can be set per location.
Does it work on phones and tablets?
Yes. We design for the devices your team actually carries, so a manager on the floor gets the same live numbers as someone at a desk.
Do you only build dashboards for Boise companies?
We're based in Meridian and love working with businesses in Boise and the Treasure Valley, but we build dashboards for companies across Idaho and the U.S.
