Begin with the decision

Agree the business questions before designing the report. A useful MIS can bring revenue, costs and operating information together without overwhelming the reader.

Make reporting consistent

Use consistent source information and definitions across reporting periods. Discuss unusual movements and data gaps so the report supports a meaningful conversation.
