Purpose
The Project Status report communicates key performance indicators, key project dates, and key risks/issues related to the project in order to keep all project sponsors equally informed.
Process
1. Update the project status from within Team Dynamix
2. Create the weekly project status report using the Excel template
PPO Status Reporting in Team Dynamix
Project status reporting is performed weekly by all project coordinators/managers for all active projects in Team Dynamix (TDX). Project Managers/Coordinators will receive a TDX automated reminder each Monday.
Project Status Reporting to the Project Team
Depending on the project this may be created weekly, bi-weekly or monthly. When created it should be sent to the project team and all project stakeholders including the Project Sponsor and the Manager of the PPO.
Operational projects are not required to send a project status report to the team.
Projects following the Project-Standard flow will use the Project Status Report Template in excel to create and submit the project status once the information has been entered in TDX.
For instructions on how to create the project status report please read Creating the Project Status Report
Projects following the Project-Lite flow have the option to send the report directly out of TDX. It should be noted that this method does not contain milestone dates and is not formatted as nicely as using the project status report in excel.
