Data Analysis

Click any indicator to open its calculation, its input variables and its full history — so you can see the cause, not just the symptom.

What you get

  • Drill-through per indicator: A dedicated detail page for each indicator, reached from its summary tile, with a breadcrumb-style return to where you were.
  • The maths in the open: The calculation method is published with the result, and documented calculation logic is a contracted deliverable rather than hidden vendor logic.
  • Input-variable time series: The history of every component of the formula, not only the ratio, so cause is visible alongside effect.
  • Drill-down across all hierarchies: Analysis by budget submission, asset class, type and sub-type, customer or income category, ward and period, with cumulative views and monthly movements.
  • Spatial analysis as a peer of tabular: Interactive maps with pan, radius and lasso selection, ward scorecards and parcel-level pop-ups where spatial data is in scope.

Key benefits

  • Traceable from raw source to indicator: Every figure can be followed back through transformation and calculation to its origin — which is what makes it defensible under audit or oversight scrutiny.
  • Investigation in minutes rather than weeks: No extract request, no manual reconciliation, no waiting for the next reporting cycle.
  • Only vetted numbers are published: Transformed data is reconciled against source and released through a structured approval workflow, with version control maintaining historical integrity.
  • Findings travel: Exports to Excel, Word, PowerPoint, PDF, CSV and shapefile mean the analysis moves straight into your Section 71 in-year reporting under the Municipal Finance Management Act (MFMA), your Service Delivery and Budget Implementation Plan (SDBIP) reporting and your council packs.
