The Tree Care Services KPI Dashboard in Google Sheets puts 13 monthly measures of a tree care business on one scorecard, in 5 KPI groups, with month-to-date and year-to-date achievement, traffic lights and a prior-year comparison in every row. In the September 2025 sample, 7 KPIs are On Target for the year, 4 are At Risk and 2 are Missed, with average achievement at 98.5% MTD and 98.8% YTD. Every figure is a worksheet formula: no add-ons, no Apps Script, nothing to install.

This is a KPI Dashboard: a month-picker scorecard with KPI Trend and KPI Analysis pages. It is a different template from our analytical Google Sheets dashboards and from the Tree Care Services KPI Scorecard in Google Sheets (in preparation), which comes from our separate KPI Scorecard line.
🔑 Key Features of the Tree Care Services KPI Dashboard in Google Sheets
🌳 13 KPIs in 5 groups – Operations (4), Financial (4), Safety & Quality (3), Sales & Growth (1) and Workforce (1), including Jobs Completed, Revenue per Crew Hour, Crew Utilization, Equipment Uptime, Estimate-to-Close Conversion, Fuel Cost per Job and Storm-Response Time.
📅 One month picker – the dropdown on KPI Dashboard drives the scorecard, its seven summary cards and the KPI Analysis page. Nothing needs refreshing.
↕️ Direction-aware scoring – 9 KPIs are upper-the-better and 4 lower-the-better, so beating a fuel-cost or response-time target scores above 100%.
🚦 Editable traffic lights – On Target from 100%, At Risk 95% to 99%, Missed below 95%, set in the Status formulas.
🧩 Room for 22 KPIs – 13 rows are filled and 9 live rows wait empty on KPI Definition.

✅ Built for: owners and operations managers of tree removal, pruning and stump-grinding companies; estimators and finance leads tracking job value, conversion and fuel cost; consultants building a monthly KPI pack.
❌ Not for: firms that need scheduling, dispatch, estimates or invoicing, or anyone looking for safety-compliance, incident recording or certification tooling – the safety and staffing KPIs are management indicators on sample data.

Elena is the sales estimator. She reads Estimate-to-Close Conversion beside Average Job Value and uses the Bottom 5 table to put estimate follow-up on the agenda.
❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a paid Google Workspace account?
No. A free Google account is enough. Open the PDF, click the link and Google Drive creates your editable copy.
Does the template calculate YTD for me?
No. Each input sheet holds an MTD and a YTD value per month, so you decide whether YTD is a running total or an average.
Are the figures in the screenshots real?
No. The template ships with illustrative 2025 sample data. Replace it with your own numbers and everything recalculates.
Does it cover safety compliance or arborist certification?
No. Safety Incident Rate (TRIR) and the certified-arborist staffing ratio are monthly management numbers only. The template does not record incidents, track credentials or certify anyone, and the sample definitions are example wording to replace.
Is there an Excel edition?
