Project weather

The project weather forecast is a project tracking methodology featuring an indicator that provides a quick, at-a-glance view of the progress of a project in progress.

Located in the project planning tool and linked to the task on which it depends, it is most often represented visually by iconography borrowed from meteorology, from which it takes its name.

☀️ The sun indicates that the project is going smoothly.

☁️ Clouds can mean a few problems to solve.

⛈️ Rain or thunderstorms represent a status requiring special attention, in particular a deviation from the provisional budget or a risk of failure.

However, the project weather can be personalized with codes, names or colors specific to your company, as long as its understanding remains clear to all. Indeed, the goal of this weather method is to offer a simple and quick reading grid in order to boost the productivity of teams and their communications.
