Overview Reports

The reports are one of the most powerful tools to control the effectiveness of a project implementation, project results, and progress, to track the quality and terms of project realization. The diversity of report kinds existing and used in a field of project management allows choosing a report type which is the most suitable at a moment. The overview reports, which summarize the information, and display the main and total data from your project come first in terms of popularity and frequency of use.

The Overview Reports solution extends the functionality of ConceptDraw PROJECT management software with a set of projects examples and capabilities to generate the Project Overview report or Project Overview with Resource Costs report at your choice. These reports allow to track and to analyze the main information on your project, its compliance with the planned terms, allocated budget and expected profits. Having detailed information about project tasks from the overview reports, namely about the number of completed, unstarted, in progress, early and late tasks and time of their implementation, the project managers and team leaders can analyze this information to evaluate the project progress in comparison with its state at a planning stage and at the moment of previous reporting period, and to detect the tasks that require additional efforts. The information about usage of work and material resources in a project also included in overview reports is useful for analyzing the effectiveness of their use in a project implementation and for detection the possible irrationalities in resources allocation within a single project or several projects in a multiproject, which is usually a more complex case implying special attention but for ConceptDraw PROJECT it is not a difficulty.
