Work Performance Reports

A tangible or digital summary of work performance information compiled from project documents, created to inform decisions, trigger actions, or raise stakeholder awareness.

Key Points

  • Consolidates analyzed performance information into consumable outputs like dashboards, packets, or formal status reports.
  • Draws from project documents but is tailored to stakeholder needs per the communications plan.
  • Primary purpose is decision support: to prompt actions, approvals, escalations, or provide awareness.
  • Should be timely, accurate, and clear; often includes KPIs, variances, forecasts, milestones, risks, and issues.

Example

The project manager issues a weekly status report (PDF and dashboard) showing CPI/SPI, milestone slippage, top risks with owners, and an updated completion forecast so the sponsor can decide whether to authorize overtime.

Advanced Project Management — Measuring Project Performance

Move beyond guesswork and status reporting. This course helps you measure real progress, spot problems early, and make confident decisions using proven project performance techniques. If you manage complex projects and want clearer visibility and control, this course is built for you.

This is not abstract theory. You’ll work step by step through Earned Value Management (EVM), learning how cost, schedule, and scope come together to show true performance. You’ll build a solid foundation in EVM concepts, understand why formulas work, and learn how performance data actually supports leadership decisions.

You’ll master Work Breakdown Structures (WBS), control accounts, and budget baselines, then apply core EVM metrics like EAC, TCPI, and variance analysis. Through a detailed real-world example, you’ll forecast outcomes, analyze trends, and understand contingencies and management reserves with confidence.

Learn how experienced project managers monitor performance, communicate results clearly, and take corrective action before projects slip. With practical exercises and hands-on analysis, you’ll be ready to apply EVM immediately. Enroll now and start managing performance with clarity and control.
