Outputs / Projects Calculations: Understanding Execution Metrics

Execution Calculation Overview

The Outputs / Projects Tab reflects execution progress by calculating completion across initiatives, projects, milestones, and stories, while also highlighting risks and obstacles that may impact delivery.

Formula Structure

Project Progress
= Progress entered or calculated at the individual project level

Initiative Progress
= Average / rolled-up progress of all related projects

Strategic Outcome Impact
= Initiative Progress + Project Progress contribution toward the overall Strategic Outcome score

Stories / Milestones

Project Progress

Initiative Progress

Strategic Outcome Progress

Risks & Obstacles

Risks / Obstacles
= Total count of items by status

Examples:

  • In Progress
  • Completed
  • Open / Not Started

These do not calculate as a percentage of progress, but instead provide visibility into issues that may affect execution.

Simple Formula View

Overall Initiative Progress
= Sum of related project progress ÷ Total number of projects

Overall Project Progress
= Sum of milestone/story/project completion values ÷ Total number of items

Risks / Obstacles
= Count of risks and obstacles by current status

Summary

Execution progress flows upward from stories and milestones into projects, then into initiatives, which ultimately contribute to the progress of the Strategic Outcome. Risks and obstacles do not directly calculate progress, but they provide important context by showing where delivery may be blocked or delayed.
