Ironbark builds the shell — the structure, the charts, the branding. You fill it with your own data, on your own computer. I never see a single number. No cloud, no uploads, no subscriptions. Just a polished dashboard your business owns outright.
Most dashboard providers ask you to hand your records over to their cloud: customer lists, sales figures, staff data. Ironbark works the other way around. I build the shell. You fill it. Nothing inside is ever mine.
To build your shell I only need to understand what you want to see: your column headings, your sites, your categories, the questions you want answered. Never a single row of real data.
Your dashboard is designed and tested entirely with realistic sample data. It's polished and fully working before any real number goes anywhere near it.
On handover, you enter or import your own data, on your own computer. It stays inside your business. No cloud, no upload, no third party. Including me.

Most dashboard tools charge per user, per month, forever, while holding your data hostage in their cloud. Ironbark builds you a polished, self-contained shell you own outright.
I design from your ideas, you enter your own numbers. Sales, customer and staff records are never uploaded, shared or stored by anyone, including me.
Because no third party ever touches your records, privacy assessments get much simpler. Ideal for businesses handling sensitive client, financial or health information.
Your shell is a single file that opens in any browser: the office PC, a laptop, or the big screen in the staff room. Nothing to install or log into.
No new system to learn. Keep logging data the way you already do, in Excel or a CSV export, and load it into the shell with a click. You stay in control of every row.
Which site is busiest? Which month dipped? Who hasn't paid? Questions that used to mean an hour in spreadsheets become a glance.
Designed by someone who has run multi-site frontline teams for decades, not a software vendor. Every shell answers real operational questions.
From first chat to finished dashboard in about two weeks, without your data ever changing hands.
A free 30-minute chat. Tell me what you need to see each week, then send a simple Structure Pack: a blank copy of your usual export plus a few fictional sample rows. No real records ever change hands.
I build your dashboard shell with your branding and realistic sample data, then walk you through a working draft. One round of changes is included so it fits how you actually work.
You receive the finished shell, a plain-English guide and a short video. Then you load your own data, on your own computer. It stays yours. No cloud, no lock-in, forever.
One payment, one shell you own outright. All prices in AUD.
Your shell is built to run for years without attention, but businesses change. Here's how changes work after delivery.
Anything that should work but doesn't is fixed free, always. Plus a 30-day settling-in period after handover for small tweaks like labels, colours and minor adjustments, at no charge.
New charts, an extra site or category, layout changes: anything that extends your shell. Each change pack covers a defined request, quoted and agreed before any work begins. No surprises.
Priority support, up to three change requests per year, and an annual refresh, including your new financial year setup, ready before 1 July. Optional, cancel anytime.
Ironbark Dashboards is run by an operations leader with more than two decades in customer service and multi-site management: rosters, call centres, budgets, reporting, and all the spreadsheets in between.
After years of building dashboards that turned tens of thousands of customer interactions into clear evidence for staffing and budget decisions, I started building them for other businesses too, including businesses whose data could never be handed to a cloud vendor.
Based in rural Queensland, on a property surrounded by the real thing. Working with clients anywhere.
Tell me what you'd like to see: the questions you want answered and the column headings you already use. No real data needed, ever. Within two business days I'll show you what your shell could look like. Free, no obligation.
