Reading the data back to

the people who run a health system.

A planning platform where every report doesn't just show the numbers — it tells leadership what they mean, and stays current on its own.

the reframe.

The brief asked for a reporting tool. The real problem was that leaders couldn't tell what to do with the reports they already had.

The brief asked for a reporting tool. The real problem was that leaders couldn't tell what to do with the reports they already had.

Planning teams across dozens of facilities were buried in static exports — accurate the moment they were generated, stale by the time they reached a decision-maker, and silent on the one question that mattered: so what?

So the work wasn't styling dashboards. It was designing a system that reads its own data back to a non-analyst — flagging what's critical, narrating where the trend breaks, and refreshing on its own.

01

insight, not decoration

Write the insight, not

just

plot the line.

Every forecast carries a written read tied to

the graph's story — a “capacity tipping

point,” the year demand overtakes supply —

instead of leaving leadership to read two

crossing lines.

1

System status, up top — beds, wait time, workforce and budget as four headline numbers.

2

The crossover — where projected demand overtakes capacity: 2031

clarity

3

Wrote the takeaway as type — a plain-language read sits under the chart so the conclusion never depends on chart-literacy

triage at a glance

One status language

anyone can read.

Critical / Moderate / Stable badges in a

single colour system let a department head

scan a wait-times table and know where to

look first — no analyst required.

1

Encoded severity as colour, not numbers — a status badge scans faster than a value, so triage happens pre-attentively

perception

2

Sorted the table by impact — the worst cases surface first, so the structure does the prioritising

prioritisation

3

Summarised the pattern in words — the table answers "what," the written line answers "so what"

synthesis

access & wait times

03

always current

Reports that

stay alive.

A library where templates refresh

automatically on a set interval — system-

generated and custom reports side by side,

always current, never a one-off snapshot.

1

Designed for "set and forget" — surfacing the refresh state turns static files into something trustworthy at a glance (green chip)

trust

2

Flattened two report types into one shelf — system and custom look identical, so the source never adds friction

cognitive load

consistency

3

Put filtering where scanning starts — controls sit left-of-content, matching how the eye moves

calm under density

A calm surface for

high-stakes data.

Layered shadows, soft cards and restrained

type give a data-heavy tool a sense of order

— so a hub full of mismatches still feels

under control. Built from real brand tokens in

Figma.

Reused one status language across every screen

recall

consistency

2

Reduced validation to a binary — Pass / Fail replaces interpreting a score, so each row resolves instantly

the Outcome.

A platform that briefs its reader.

A coherent system spanning executive forecasting, access & wait-time analysis, an
