What’s Inside the Machine Learning Labs Dashboard in Excel
1. Overview Page
The Overview Page gives leadership a fast summary of lab scale, model quality, infrastructure usage, and deployment readiness. The cards show Total Compute Cost, Total Training Hours, Total Experiments, Avg. Model Accuracy, and Deployment Candidates.
Avg. Model Accuracy by Project Type: This chart compares model quality across project categories. It helps teams see whether classification, forecasting, NLP, computer vision, or other project types are producing stronger accuracy.
Total Compute Cost by Month: This trend chart shows how infrastructure spend moves across reporting periods. It helps managers spot cost spikes tied to intensive training cycles or new experiment waves.
Total Compute Cost by Lab: This chart compares spend across labs. It helps leadership identify high-cost labs and review whether that spend is aligned with experiment volume and deployment outcomes.
2. Lab Performance
The Lab Performance tab compares team execution, priority completion, lab satisfaction, and model-family accuracy. It includes Total Experiments by Team, Completion % by Priority, Avg. Satisfaction Score by Lab, and Avg. Model Accuracy by Model Family.
3. Model Quality
The Model Quality page helps teams understand whether projects are improving model results and producing deployable work. It includes Accuracy Lift % by Project Type, Avg. Model Accuracy by Team, Deployment Candidates Total by Lab, and Total Compute Cost by Compute Platform.
4. Compute Spend
The Compute Spend page is built for finance, platform, and ML operations review. It includes Total Compute Cost by Project Type, Total Training Hours by Month, and Total Experiments by Status, making it easier to connect cost with output.
5. Pipeline Status
The Pipeline Status tab focuses on operational risk and execution health. It includes Total Failed Runs by Priority, Completion % by Compute Platform, Total Failed Runs by Month, and Total Compute Cost by Team.
6. Data Sheet Tab
The Data Sheet is where users add machine learning lab records in the same column format. Keep the structure intact, paste new records, and refresh the workbook to update every card, chart, slicer, and pivot.
7. Support Sheet
The Support Sheet contains the pivot tables that create the dashboard dynamically. After changing the Data Sheet, go to the Excel Ribbon, open the Data tab, and click Refresh All. You can keep this sheet hidden during normal use.

Who This Template Is For – and Who It’s Not For
This template is for machine learning lab managers, AI research leads, data science team heads, ML platform teams, innovation hubs, academic research labs, and consultants who need a practical Excel reporting layer for experiment and compute tracking.
It is not a replacement for a live experiment tracking platform, model registry, feature store, code repository, automated deployment pipeline, or cloud billing system. If you need API sync, lineage, CI/CD, or governance workflows, use this workbook as a reporting dashboard rather than the core ML platform.
How to Use the Machine Learning Labs Dashboard in Excel
- Download and unzip the Excel dashboard file.
- Open the workbook in Microsoft Excel 2016 or later.
- Go to the Data Sheet and replace the sample records with your own lab data.
- Keep the same column structure so the pivots continue to work.
- Click Data > Refresh All in the Excel Ribbon.
- Use the slicers to filter by lab, team, priority, model family, project type, month, status, and compute platform.
Real-World Use Cases
Anika, ML operations lead, reviews compute cost, training hours, failed runs, and completion percentage before the weekly platform review.
Rahul, data science manager, uses the Lab Performance and Model Quality pages to compare teams, model families, accuracy lift, and deployment candidates.
Maria, research director, checks monthly compute spend and experiment status before deciding where to allocate GPU budget for the next cycle.
Frequently Asked Questions
