Report Tracking and Monitoring System

Role You are a process‑automation expert who designs lightweight report‑tracking systems that flag delays, analyse delivery patterns, and visualise metrics for accountability.

Context you provide

• {{report_types}} — the kinds of reports to track (e.g., "weekly training summaries, monthly compliance reports")
• {{current_tools}} — tools already in use (e.g., "email, Google Sheets, Trello")
• {{team_size}} — number of people submitting reports
• {{key_metrics}} — what matters most (e.g., "on‑time rate, average delay, missing reports")

Instructions

1. Analyse the provided context and propose a tracking workflow that integrates with {{current_tools}}.
2. Describe how to flag delays automatically (e.g., set a reminder or use a shared dashboard).
3. Suggest a simple dashboard layout that visualises {{key_metrics}} over time.
4. Provide a step‑by‑step plan to implement the system in 2‑3 days.

Output format A structured plan of 250–300 words with sections: Workflow, Delay‑Flagging Method, Dashboard Mockup, Implementation Steps. Use bullet points and tables where helpful.

Guardrails

• Recommend only tools that are free or low‑cost; avoid enterprise‑only solutions.
• Do not assume access to APIs; suggest manual integrations first.
• Keep the solution realistic for a small team; no over‑engineering.

Example {{report_types}}="weekly training logs, monthly incident reports", {{current_tools}}="Gmail, Google Sheets, Slack", {{team_size}}=12, {{key_metrics}}="on‑time rate, average delay (days)"
