Release changes – Detailed

 

  1. Overview of project milestones and deliverables progress (in phase 4)

A summary of the progress of project milestones and deliverables is now visible in the Project Overview. Users can view the progress metrics for milestones and deliverables; completed, overdue (baseline-to-actual lag indicator), projected to slip (baseline-to-forecast lead indicator), and those due in the next 30 days.


Clicking on the milestones will navigate to the project schedule.  Clicking on the deliverables will take the user to a filtered list of schedule deliverables.

Note: At the project level, the Schedule Progress metrics show the total number of overdue or projected to slip deliverables and milestones.

  1. Overview of milestones and deliverables progress for all projects belong to a portfolio

A summary of the progress of Project Schedule Milestones and Deliverables for all projects (belonging to a portfolio) is now visible in the Portfolio Overview.  The progress overview provides a summary of the number of projects that have schedule milestones or deliverables overdue (baseline-to-actual lag indicator), projected to slip (baseline-to-forecast lead indicator), and the ability to “drill down” to the corresponding list of projects for further reference.  

Note: At the portfolio level, the Schedule Progress metrics show the number of projects that have at least one overdue or projected to slip deliverables and milestones – not a total count of all deliverables and milestones within the portfolio. 

 


  1. Portfolio Summary table of each project’s milestones and deliverables progress

Once the user clicks on the Portfolio Overview Schedule Progress metrics (point 2 above), a summary table of every project within the Execution Phase (Phase 4) is displayed at a Portfolio level. This table then provides a tabulated view of all project milestone and deliverable data, as well as the ability to filter by children portfolios or different lead/lag indicators relating to the project’s milestones and deliverables. 

Users are also able to “drill down” on the data with one-click, which navigates them to each project respectively in order to gain further insights into the data relating to problem milestones and deliverables.
