IT Dashboard on Government spending !

"Is there a dashboard where I can see the overall performance ", is the most often asked question by the senior management of organizations.
Dashboards play a critical role in summarizing and giving a birds eye info on key parameters of any project.
One of the dashboards which impressed me was the IT Dashboard by the US Government on spending.

As the website says ,''The IT Dashboard provides the public with an online window into the details of Federal information technology investments and provides users with the ability to track the progress of investments over time.The Dashboard contains a subset of data from agency Exhibits 53 and 300, and agencies will update cost, schedule, and performance figures, agency CIO ratings, and other collected investment information on a monthly basis". It looks to be a bold initiative aimed at bringing transparency on government spendings.Will other countries follow suit ? Reference :http://it.usaspending.gov/
