Dashboards
Your community already has the data. We make it usable.
Data that answers the questions your community is actually asking.
From raw system data to decisions people can act on.

D Gore Consulting helps communities turn administrative data into interactive dashboards that support daily operations and tell the public a clear, honest story.
Most communities aren't short on data. They're short on time, tooling, and a shared understanding of what the numbers mean. We work alongside agency staff to clean up what's already being collected, build reporting that holds up to scrutiny, and design dashboards that get used after the launch meeting is over.
Understand your data. We start inside your systems. That means auditing how data is entered, where it breaks, and which reports your team is quietly rebuilding by hand every month. You get a clear picture of what your data can and can't support before anyone builds a chart.
Build operational dashboards. Tools your staff open on a Tuesday morning, not just at the quarterly board meeting. Filterable, current, and built around the decisions your team actually makes: caseload, capacity, throughput, performance against funder benchmarks.
Tell the public story. Public-facing dashboards and data narratives that hold up to press questions and community meetings. Transparent about method, careful about privacy, and readable by someone who has never seen a data dictionary.
Fifteen years inside homeless response systems, working with HMIS platforms, CoC reporting requirements, and the funders who set them. We've written the SQL, built the reports, and sat in the meetings where the numbers get questioned. That means less time spent explaining your world to a vendor, and more time spent improving it.
