I have different status reports, which may be red or yellow, or green, depending on the health of each project within the given program. In actual project execution, each of the project leads or project managers would complete a weekly status report within Confluence. I also highlight what the major accomplishments are this week, as well as what’s being planned for this week. If the project was red, I could put a go-to green plan. The status report includes a sponsor, a lead, the project phase, and an overall launch date. In this example, I use a simple status report that has all the elements that you typically see in project status.
In addition to the project status, I included individual status flags similar to the red, yellow, and green indicators that you typically get with schedule, budget, issues, and risks indicators. In this scenario, I’m using Confluence to build a very simple dashboard to pull relevant data specific to launch dates, project phases, and overall project status. You could be managing a program with multiple projects or a large project with multiple work streams – all of which require weekly status. Project managers experience a weekly challenge trying to assimilate different status reports across a large project or a large program.
