Digital dashboard as an information channel in office environments

Workplaces way of communicating and sharing information has changed trough out the years, and digitalization has given new opportunities to how workplaces can communicate using technology. A popular tool used for presenting information is large digital screens. A company that uses a screen like this to present information to their employees is Xlent in Umeå. This thesis is about investigating how this screen can come to better use at the workplace, by creating a new system that combines office information, currently presented on the screen, with employees’ schedules that previously have been managed on a whiteboard. The new solution was implemented as a web application, allowing a user to access the application on any preferred platform. An administrator can therefore, during a meeting, directly change the content presented on the TV-screen from a cellphone or laptop. Due to the current global pandemic, Covid-19, could the new system not be tested within the workplace, instead, it was tested from an administrative point of view. Usability testing for the sought usage within the workplace is left as future work.
