Understanding Project Management Metrics, KPIs, and Dashboards
With Dr. Harold Kerzner
About the Webinar
For more than four decades, we relied on two metrics to manage a project: time and cost.
Today, we have as many as fifty metrics on a project. Each project can have a different set of metrics and key performance indicators (KPIs), as well as different dashboard reporting requirements. We are also creating value-reflective or value-based metrics that can measure the value of the project as it progresses. Why are we doing this?
Because measuring and reporting value metrics improves client satisfaction and leads to more business.
Because metrics and KPIs, if used correctly, allow for informed decision making and improved performance.
