What’s Inside the Cement and Steel Dashboard in Google Sheets
Overview Page
The Overview Page starts with Total Production, Total Revenue, Dispatch Rate, and Avg Quality Score cards. Charts for Production and Dispatched by Month, Revenue by Product, Batches by Status, and Production by Region help management compare monthly output, product revenue, batch flow, and regional contribution.
Plant Performance
The Plant Performance tab compares Production and Dispatched by Plant, Revenue by Plant, Avg Quality by Plant, and Monthly Batches by Region. This helps plant heads identify which locations are producing, dispatching, and maintaining quality most consistently.
Product Mix
The Product Mix tab tracks Production by Product, Revenue Share by Product, Batches by Sales Channel, and Monthly Batches by Shift. It is useful when teams need to understand product demand, channel contribution, and shift-level workload.
Sales and Dispatch
The Sales and Dispatch tab focuses on Monthly Revenue by Month, Revenue by Region, Revenue by Sales Channel, and Dispatched MT by Month. Sales managers can use it to compare demand, dispatch movement, and channel performance in one view.
Quality Control
The Quality Control tab reviews Monthly Quality Score by Month, Avg Quality by Shift, Batches by Supervisor, and Production MT by Month. Quality teams can compare scores, supervisor activity, and production trends before review meetings.
Search Sheet Tab
The Search Sheet lets users select a Batch ID and see the full record details in one place, including date, product, plant, region, sales channel, status, shift, supervisor, production, dispatched quantity, revenue, and quality score.
Data Sheet Tab
The Data Sheet is where users add or update production, dispatch, revenue, status, shift, supervisor, and quality records in the same structure used by the dashboard. Keeping this sheet clean keeps every chart, slicer, card, and lookup working correctly.

Who This Template Is For – and Who It’s Not For
Best fit for: cement plants, steel distributors, construction-material suppliers, production supervisors, sales operations teams, quality managers, and analysts who maintain batch-level data in spreadsheets.
Not a fit for: teams needing live machine integration, automated weighbridge feeds, full ERP inventory control, accounting sync, or complex approval workflows. This is a reporting dashboard, not a full manufacturing execution system.
