[www.keralites.net] 10 Recommendations for Project Tracking and Governance

 



 


 
For a project manager the real game is project governance and its tracking. So I would like to share some tips for project governance and its tracking. Here we go:

1#  Produce action points against each item on the agenda and circulate within 24 hours of the meeting.  Use these action points to help in the creation of your next agenda.

2#  Review the items on the critical path checking they are on schedule.  Review risks, review yours stakeholders and your communication plans and whether you are still on track to deliver on time, to budget and to the required quality standard.

3#  Set a tolerance figure and monitor e.g. a tolerance figure of ±5% means as long as you are within the 5% limit you do not have to formally report.  If  exceed the 5% limit (cost or time) then you need to report this to the agreed person – probably your sponsor

4#  Report progress against an end of a stage – are you on schedule?  Time, cost or quality?  Ensure that if something is off schedule the person responsible for delivering it suggests ways to bring it back on time, within budget or to hit the right quality standard.

5#  Develop an issues log to record items that may be causing concern.  Review at your project meetings.

6#  See whether you are still delivering the original project benefits when reviewing your project.  If not, consider re-scoping or if appropriate abandoning the project.  Do not be afraid of abandoning a project. Better to abandon now rather than waste valuable time, money, and resources working on something no longer required.  If you close a project early – hold a project review meeting to identify learning.

7#  Produce one-page reports highlighting key issues.  Agree the areas to include with the Sponsor before writing a report.

8#  Use a series of templates to support the monitoring process, e.g. milestone reporting, change control, log, planned v. actual.

9#  Apply traffic lights to illustrate how you are progressing – red, amber and green. Use these in conjunction with milestone reports.

10# Engender honest reporting against specific deliverables, milestones, or a critical path activity. If you do not have honest reporting imagine the consequences.

Weight Loss Foods: Health Benefits of Eggs
 
People who are aiming for weight loss can have a healthy breakfast with an egg white omelet's.

Egg yolks have three times the calories than in the egg white; they have 5 gms of fat and 210 gms of dietary cholesterol. Egg yolks are rich in Lutien and Zeaxanthin. Both of these are compounds are responsible for promoting sharp vision; they also reduce risk for age – related macular degeneration, one of the major causes for blindness after the age of 50.

It is myth that brown eggs are more nutritious than white eggs.

According to a study by the Harvard School of Public Health, there is no significant link between egg consumption and heart disease. In fact, according to one study, regular consumption of eggs may help prevent blood clots, stroke, and heart attacks.

Eggs are a great source of choline. One egg yolk has about 300 micrograms of choline. Choline regulates the brain, nervous system, and cardiovascular system.

Eggs are one of the only foods that contain naturally occurring vitamin D.

Eggs may prevent breast cancer. In one study, women who consumed at least 6 eggs per week lowered their risk of breast cancer by 44%.

Eggs work best for healthy hair and skin because they have high sulphur content and wide array of vitamins and minerals.
