Worked scenario
Example: two activities weighted 60% and 40%, with actual progress 50% and 25%, give total weighted progress of 40%.

Method & practical use
Understand the result.
Free physical progress measurement dashboard. Calculate weighted planned and actual progress from activity weights, compare the variance and plot the S-curve.
How to use this tool
- Enter the project details and reporting date; replace any sample records.
- Add or import your records, then review the summaries and outstanding actions.
- Save the project and use the available export or print controls to share the current report.
Units & method
Use the dates, quantities and currency shown in the workspace. Keep one currency and a consistent reporting cut-off.
Compare planned and actual physical progress using activity weights. Cost expenditure is not a substitute for installed quantities.
Method: the owner’s supplied worksheet and the arithmetic described above.
