Abstract:
When projects begin slipping, they're talking to you. Project Managers who monitor project performance indicators detect early schedule slip in time to take corrective action. The result: projects delivered on budget and on time.

This Webinar helps managers gain a better understanding of project schedule by applying measurement to improve their ability to monitor and control their project schedule. Using Distributive Management’s performance dashboard software, DataDrill, the webinar demonstrates techniques for using web-based measurement data and reports to command and direct project schedule.

Learn how organizations use measurement to aggressively control project schedules:

• Re-allocate resources against project requirements and constraints
• Identify needed process changes and improvements
• Re-plan as necessary in line with organizational goals
• Evaluate the impact of corrective actions and adjust accordingly
• Capture lessons learned for estimating future projects
