THEME:
Best Practice in Project Monitoring and Reporting for Effective Service Delivery

Overview of the Workshop

Project monitoring is referred to services rendered to protect the interest of client’s by identifying and
advising on the risks associated with acquiring an interest in a development that is not under the Client’s
direct control. It is the monitoring of actual project progress as compared to the planned project progress
and the collection of key progress metrics such as risks, issues, changes and dependencies. It also
involves reporting of project status, costs and outputs and other relevant information, to the project
sponsor, and other project stakeholders. Project monitoring typically comprises tracking five variables
which include:
 Schedule - the estimated effort and duration versus the actual effort and duration;
 Costs - the estimated cost versus the actual costs;
 Deliverables - what products or components have been delivered and plan to be delivered;
 Quality - how well are the deliverables being completed; and
 Benefits - are the processes in place to achieve and to measure the lead indicators for benefits
realization.
