The document discusses a project performance dashboard developed by Chris Vizzuett, which addresses five fundamental questions regarding project progress and performance. It compares earned value management (EVM) with earned schedule management (ESM) for measuring schedule variance, particularly emphasizing ESM's effectiveness in late-stage projects. The dashboard serves as a communication tool to standardize performance measurements and identify trends of underperformance.

- 2. Five fundamental questions in any project:What is the project’s progress?How is the project performing?Will the project need more time to finish?How many weeks is the project ahead/behind plan?How is the critical path (key deliverables) going?
