The Project Performance Scorecard is a tool that can be used to communicate the status and monitor the progress of an organization's top business and IT projects. It provides a summary of key operational and financial project measurements, including investment, benefits, resources and schedule, as well as a snapshot of a company's investment and potential value realization for their key projects. The scorecard can also be used to identify areas of concern with project such as variances on investment, resources and schedule, providing focus for further exploration into root causes to address these issues.
