Microsoft Project: Baseline with Project level variance

Microsoft Project: Baseline with Project level variance

In Microsoft Project, it is crucial to periodically record a snapshot of the project to assess if it is on track or delayed. By doing so, the project manager can identify variances and take corrective measures to ensure timely completion. This tutorial introduces the concept of baseline with project level variance, a powerful tool that offers insights into the overall progress of the project.

Through its intuitive interface, Microsoft Project enables users to create baselines, allowing them to capture the planned schedule, cost, and scope of the project at a specific point in time. By comparing these baselines with the current status of the project, the baseline view provides an overview of how well the project is progressing and if any deviations from the initial plan have occurred.

By following the best practices outlined in this tutorial, you'll gain a deep understanding of how to use project level variance to assess the health of the project and take corrective measures, if necessary. Whether you're a seasoned project manager or just getting started with Microsoft Project, this tutorial offers valuable insights into how to leverage this powerful tool to drive project success.
