Phase Status Management

Status management consists of the following process steps:

  • Reviewing Phase Status
  • Reporting Highlights
  • Taking Corrective Action
  • Escalating Project Issues

The project manager assesses the phase status regularly and takes corrective action as necessary.  Highlights are reported according to the plan for the phase.

Initiating a phase also triggers the next phase planning process near the end of the current phase and the closing a project process near the end of the last phase of the project.

Should issues cause the project tolerance to be exceeded, an exception report is prepared and submitted to the SMT.
