  • Rego’s Clarity Adoption Metrics package consists of two sets of metrics: Project metrics, and Resource metrics. Project metrics measure how effectively project managers are using Clarity to manage their projects. Resource metrics measure how effectively resource managers are using Clarity to manage resources. Metrics are scored on a scale of 0 to 5, with higher scores indicating greater adoption and use. All metrics can be viewed numerically or graphically, and can be broken out by OBS. In addition, metric data can display as a 12-month rolling history to help identify trends. Project metrics can also display by lowest / highest adoption rates for a specific resource metric or all resource metrics. There is a variety of way to view the Adoption Metric data, therefore, Rego has made this simple by creating an Adoption Metrics object that contains multiple tabs.  Each tab displays one or more of the Project or Resource Adoption Metrics.  Based on the nature of the Metrics some tabs will allow the ability to use a pull down menu to select a specific Adoption Metric.   There is also a Metrics trending view that pulls monthly snapshots of the metrics. Project metrics consist of the following:
    • Project Status Reporting – Measures how well PMs create and publish project status reports.
    • Project Risk Adoption – Measures how well Risks are being used and managed.
    • Project Issue Adoption – Measures how well Issues are being used and managed.
    • Project Schedule – Measures how well PMs create tasks and keep the project schedule current.
    • Project Baseline – Measures whether or not baselines exist.
    • Project Zero ETC’s – Measures how well the PM assigns resources to tasks with ETCs.
    • Project Past ETC’s – Measures how many improperly scheduled tasks the PM has.
    • Project Milestone / Key Tasks – Measures how well PMs create and manage Milestones / Key Tasks.
    • Project Schedule Variance – Measures how effectively PMs manage their schedules.
    • Project Effort Variance – Measures how effectively PMs manage their project efforts.
    • Project Budget Variance – Measures how effectively PMs manage budgets or cost plans.
    • Project Unfilled Roles – Measures project roles with allocations that are already started or starting within the next 30 days.
    • Project Data Quality – Measures how effectively PMs complete the Description, Stage, Progress, Objective, and Sponsor/Business Owner fields.
    • Project Commitment – Measures the hard allocations for a project over a two week time frame.
    Resource Metrics consist of the following:
    • Resource Clarity Usage – Measures how often users log into Clarity.
    • Resource Timesheet – Measures if timesheets post in a timely manner.
    • Resource Allocation – Measures how well RMs keep total resource allocations within the expected range for future time periods.
    • Resource Actualy Utilization – Measures how well Resource allocations match actuals.
    • Resource Allocation Date in the Past – Measures how many resources are open for time entry with dates in the past.
    • Resource Data Quality – Measures how well RMs complete the Resource Manager and Primary Role fields and optionally the Skill and Employment Type fields.
    • Resource Commitment – Measures how much resource available time is committed to projects.

  • ** No Download - Do not Add to Cart ** Join Rego expert guide Dave Gubeno, Will Ross, and Chris Phillips for an engaging and informative webinar that will explain the definition, purpose, and development of Clarity metrics. Their discussion will also include: A description of the differences between metrics and key performance indicators An introduction to the Rego Adoption Metrics Framework lifecycle The presentation of pre-defined Rego Adoption Metrics for Projects and Resources An introduction to a set of Clarity portlets used to view the metrics http://info.regoconsulting.com/clarity-adoption-metrics-september-2020
  • “Real” Resource management is not for the faint of heart. To get a solid picture of the actual capacity multiple dimensions have to be considered: projects, daily business, absences, different work hours and more. In this session we will demonstrate how this can be done with the help of “Advanced Resource Planning” in Clarity. We will staff projects in seconds, simulate different options, jog new projects in and finally simulate the resource aspect of whole Roadmaps.

  • The All Assignments portlet displays resource assignments across multiple projects. Currently, assignment information displayed for the project, in OWB, or MSP is limited to a single project. This portlet will provide a single view of the assigned data for all assignments across multiple projects. The portlet displays project actuals and estimates from the project (datamart tables). The Days Late field is calculated by the baseline date, while the Days Old field is calculated by today's date. Note: Only the projects that the user has viewer rights to will show up in the list. Filters provide the PM, RM, and individual resource the ability to monitor work progress across multiple projects. For example: ~ PMs can filter for all assignments that were to be completed by a given date but still have "Started" or "Not Started" status. ~ If multiple projects are utilizing the same resource, the PM or RM can filter for assignments utilizing that specific resource to prevent over-utilization. ~ A resource may filter for all assignments assigned to them, providing a picture of their total body of work.

  • All Assignments report provides the Managers a single place to view all the assignments associated with a project(s).  User can view only the investments that he has access to. This report also displays ETC, Actuals, Total Effort, Days Old (Elapsed days between Task Finish Date and Today's Date), Days Late (Elapsed days between Task Finish date and Task Baseline Finish date) associated with the task. You can further narrow your search by OBS Type & Path,  Resource Name , Project Manager, Project Name,  Project ID,  Is project Active?, Assignment Start Date, Assignment Finish Date, Assignment Status and Task Status.
  • All Assignments report provides project managers a single place to view KPIs related to Task Assignments.  All the KPIs are depicted in various visualizations. Total Actuals: Scorecard that displays the sum of actuals associated with assignments for the selected criteria. Remaining ETC:  Scorecard that displays the sum of current ETC associated with assignments for the selected criteria. Top 5 Roles (Total Effort):  Column chart that displays Effort (Actuals + ETC) by Roles. X axis displays various Roles. Data labels indicate sum of effort associated with that Role. Actuals by OBS level 2:  Column chart that displays Actuals by OBS level 2. X axis displays various OBS level 2. Data labels indicate sum of actuals associated with that OBS. Grid: Displays Assignment details such as Project ID, Project Name, Task Name, Task Status, Assigned Resource, Assignment Status, Assignment Start, Assignment Finish, Actuals, ETC, Total Effort, Days Late and Days Old. You can further narrow your search by OBS Type, OBS Path, Project(s) and Project Manager.
