Project tracking

Are project tracking activities and resnlts periodically reviewed with senior management When changes occur, are the necessary amendments made to project plans ... 

Horizontalbar charts (Figure 27.10) are used to view (1) the length (duration) of each task/ activity/ and objective/ (2) the temporal relationship between various activities/ and (3) the actual progress vs the original plan that has been made on each task/ activity/ and objective. A number of project-tracking software systems are available and provide the ability to view the whole project as well as just the high-level objectives (milestones and decisions). 

The CEC s North American Pollutant Release and Transfer Register project tracks and publishes information on the amounts, sources, and handling of toxic chemicals from industrial activities in North America, including analyses of trends in pollutant releases and transfers since the early days of NAFTA. Each year the CEC publishes the Taking Stock" report and website, which provides a unique regional picture of pollutant data in North America, based on available data from the national PRTR systems. 

Figure 10. Representative track length distributions for spontaneous tracks in the various apatite length groups recognized by Gleadow et al. (1986). The top row represents measurements on horizontal confined tracks for which the differences between the different types are more distinctive than for the corresponding projected length distributions (bottom row). 100 confined tracks and 500 projected track lengths were measured in each case. After Gleadow et al. (1986).

Site/plant/project tracking systems may be used to check the implementation of action plans. 

The document and other item numbers may have to conform to client requirements for project tracking and audit, and much of the documentation and its indexing remain important for plant operation, maintenance, and financial control. The client use of project documentation is an inevitable aspect of any project numbering system. Even if the solution adopted is merely a duplicate set of numbers for postproject use, this can consume a lot of effort this is minimized if the duplicate numbering is planned from the outset. 

Track Niunber/iype/Color/Pitch— Track number is the order of the track from the top and is located in the top-left comer of this area. The track number is simply a numerical indication of the tracks order from top to bottom. Track order, and thus track number, does not affect the mix or sound of a project. Track color can be changed by right-clicking the colored square in the Track Header, selecting Color from the context menu, and then choosing a color from the submenu. The color of the waveform of the events inserted into the timeline is determined this way as well. The color is used for your reference only. One possibility is to make all bass tracks the same color, all percussion tracks another, keyboard tracks another, and so on. 

There are four levels at which the key can be altered in ACID project, track, event, and loop. 

The properties of a loop as it occurs in ACID are modified through the Track Properties window. To view a loop s properties once it has been inserted into a project (track), irom the View menu, select Track Properties. Click on a track to change the focus of the program to that track and view its properties in the Ttack Properties window. While a track s properties are initially determined by the information saved with the media file, the track properties are still independent and can be changed. The track properties always supercede the loop s properties. The specific properties that are available depend on the track type, as previously discussed. MIDI and video files can also be inserted into tracks, but not into audio tracks. MIDI and video tracks are dealt with in their own chapters. 

Institutional Practice 2—Establish Multifund Project Tracking... 

Figure 6.2 shows a coordination feedback control model. To perform coordination on the three project constraints—time, resources, and cost—Figure 6.2 shows a flowchart for project tracking and assessment of the data for feedback into project system for cost, time, and performance planning, and feed-forward into resource coordination. The loop is closed using the incoming measurement and assessment information to enhance the next phase of data collection.
