Summary/Abstract: The executive dashboard systems are a mainstream business intelligence technology. The main idea behind the executive dashboard systems is to deliver information about status of the organization by means of simple, abstract measures of performance and intuitive visualizations. One of the key concerns is preventing information overload. This is achieved by identifying key performance indicators - a set of measures that summarize the key aspects of the organization's performance. This paper investigates the application of the concept of the executive dashboard systems to the context of public emergency management. We identify the key differences between development of executive dashboard systems for profit-oriented organizations and for the multi-organizational network of the public emergency-management organizations. Based on these differences we deliver a set of implementation guidelines.
