Capacity Utilization Dashboard

Slide Content

The slide presents a "Capacity Utilization Dashboard" focusing on Table Comparison, Plant Output, and Manufacturing Capacity on a Monthly and Quarterly basis. It compares capacity utilization data across two years, 2022 and 2023, showing capacity in tons, the actual output, and the resultant utilization percentage. Each month denotes a row with these statistics, culminating in a total at the bottom of the table. Additionally, bar graphs depict utilization percentages and capacity in tons by year and by quarter, facilitating a visual comparison of performance.

Graphical Look

• The slide background is white with a slight gradient.
• The slide title is at the top, centered in dark blue.
• Two ribbon shapes in blue with white text denote the years 2022 and 2023, positioned above two side-by-side tables.
• The tables feature three columns: "Capacity (tons)", "Output (tons)", and "Utilization (%)".
• Each table row represents a month, from January to December, with a total row at the bottom.
• To the right, there are two bar charts with legends and percentage values against a light-blue background rectangle.
• The first bar chart is titled "Utilization (%) by Year" and shows quarterly data for two years.
• The second bar chart below is titled "Utilization Capacity (tons) by Year" and compares four plants across two years.
• Each bar in the charts is colored in two shades of blue to differentiate the years.
• Icons of a calendar and factory are placed next to each bar chart title, colored in orange and purple respectively.

The overall look of the slide is professionally designed with a structured layout, utilizing contrasting colors that make the data stand out. The use of icons adds a thematic touch, and the clear segmentation of the tables and graphs aids in understanding the data at a glance.
