Preparing Metrics that Matter Enhancing Customization and Automation
Agenda • Functional Best Practices • Case Study – Emerging Health • Case Study – HSBC • Open Discussion • Technical Best Practices
Align behaviors with organizational strategy What gets measured gets done Enables self-service performance management Benchmarking – Internal and External Manage based on data not gut feel Why do we utilize metrics?
What makes a good Metric? • SMART • Specific • Meaningful • Aligned • Realistic goals • Time based
What makes a good Metric? • Balanced – Do not want to drive the wrong behavior • Drill Down – Need to be able to answer why • Automated – consistency, availability, accuracy • Incentives – rewards drive behavior • Positive Focus – Highlight good behavior not bad • Assign Ownership – Monitor, report improve • Leading vs Lagging – measure things that can be changed
Understand strategic goals of your organization Determine the Key Success Factors in reaching the goals Define Key Performance Indicators that measure the success factors Determine the Success Factors for these metrics Define Performance Indicators that measure the success factors Make KPIs, PIs and data available Communicate to all levels How to Create KPIs?
What Metrics Do You Use Today? • Scope • # changes / project duration in days (bad req. or bad PM) • Customer satisfaction (survey 1-10) • Schedule • % of open tasks with finish date < one week ago (stale) • % projects on-time • % of tasks completed on time • % of tasks completed within baseline duration • % of tasks completed within baseline hours • % Milestones on time • Actual/Estimate - % to estimate • Average task duration or effort (good plans) • % tasks assigned 3 months out (how well advanced planning) • # of baselines • Milestone Burndown • Cross Project Dependency Slack • Budget • % projects on-budget • % complete vs. % money expended • Actual / budgeted ROI • Total support costs for x months after solution is completed • Amount of project manager time vs. overall effort hours • % change in NPV/IRR from gate to gate • Benefits realized vs. benefits planned • % projects with current financial forecasts • Overall Project • Subjective R/Y/G on projects by the PM (PMs thoughts) • Duration between steps, phases, stages, etc (diagnose where issue. This will not solve issues) • # issues / project duration in days • How long issues remain open • % projects with current status reports • Number of defects discovered after initial acceptance / development hours • Counts and amounts for projects in Red/Amber/Green status • # issues by severity: opened, closed, on-hold • % projects failed gate review • % projects that delayed gate review • Time (Not Project Related) • Time not submitted on time • Ave hours worked by staff • % internal vs. external resources • Time to assign WR (response time) • Time by % Admin, Projects, Maintenance (Doing the right things) • Resource Management • % of resources with “appropriate” allocations 6-9 months in the future • % of resources with “appropriate” assignments 0-3 months in the future • Forecasted Utilization % by project manager for next 0-3 months • Actual Utilization % by project manager for last 3 months • Workloads by resources or manager - # projects they support
What will be Covered • PM Dashboard portlet, Sub-Page & Drill Down • Key Performance Indicators • Governance
Overview & Importance • PM Dashboard • Provides PMs and Management with important information related to project staffing, schedule and level of effort. • Information drives Executive decisions related to project portfolios. • Can be used by the PM as a project maintenance check list. • Makes it easier for PMs to identify and correct project schedule and staffing issues. • Accessible to all users
Accessing PM Dashboard sub-page Accessing from within a project Click the PM Dashboard sub-page link on the project properties page. The sub-page will show all indicators related to the project.
Project Dashboard Detail Provides detailed information related to Red and Yellow Indicators. To launch the Detail information click on a Red or Yellow icon Use: The detail page for ETCs Past is the Project Team portlet. All others indicators link to the Project Dashboard Popup Page as shown to the right
Portlet Defaults • The portlet returns all active projects • Indicator Update Frequency Daily Updates at 4:00 am Hourly Updates Zero ETC ETCs Past Milestone Schedule Next Go Live Dt Past Comment Dt Past Resource Budget Unfilled Roles within 30 days Allocation Dt Past
KPI Indicator Colors A Green icon means the indicator is within the acceptable range and no action is required at this time. A Gray icon means the indicator does not apply to the project in its current state. A Yellow icon means there is a component of the project that needs attention. A Red icon means there is a component of the project that needs immediate attention.
Key Components of Governance • Establish a governance structure with a Project Committee including appropriate subgroups • Define your processes – e.g. start identifying what projects align with your strategic goals • Ensure priorities are set by Senior Management and Executives • Communicate priorities and progress on a regular basis • Monitor Resource, Budget and Schedule regularly • Implement effective Governance reporting based on the processes
HSBC background • Clarity/Niku customer since 2005 • Rego Consultant services provided since 2010 • One partition • 3 Main Department Functions • Global system • Integrated with HR and Finance systems • Yearly Financial planning process • Project setup • Billable Product tie back • Actuals = financial transactions (chargebacks to customers) • 3 Main departments • 37,200 active resources • 31,000+ OTE • 27,500+ Billable • 39,500 + active projects • 27,000+ Billable INTERNAL
Overview Resource/Project Details • Gainingvalue from Clarity depends on effective use of the tool and increasing end-user adoption. Project and Resource management metrics are required to baseline and track adoption as part of monitoring and improving the value of the data on Clarity • Clarity Maturity Model (CMM) was implemented in 2008 in response to an audit requirement to track Clarity usage and data • Clarity SWAT are looking to materially improved the existing CMM model to eliminate “box ticking” and implement metrics that will drive sound resource and project management behavior INTERNAL
Key Roles • LQSOs – Local Quality Service Organization; audit regional/departmental project and resource data • Clarity PPMT (Project and Portfolio Management Tooling) – Enhancement, defect and maintenance. Make CMM available and enhance/create new Metrics/KPIs • PMOs, Deployment Leads, Middle and upper Management; Direction and Take action on deployments INTERNAL

For your organization: What are your process pain points? What behaviors are you trying to drive? What are your reporting challenges? Discussion Questions
Metrics Development Cycle Happy Customer
Technical Best Practices Check what is already available • OOB Metrics • Earned Value (CPI, SPI) • RegoXchange • Search for keyword “Dashboard” on the RegoXchange website • Rego Adoption Metrics (coming soon!)
Rego Adoption Metrics • We will have a set of metrics defined for projects, and a set of defined for resources. • Each metric will have a set criteria for levels 0-5 maturity, so that for each metric that item (i.e. project) will be given a maturity level from 0-5. • Project Metrics will apply only to active projects • Resource Metrics will only apply only to active users (exclude locked resources)
Technical Best Practices • If the metrics you are looking for do not exist – • Make sure the requirements for the Metric are well defined • Architect the Metrics with keeping potential OBS/Department/Resources changes in perspective (e.g. Re-Org) • Capture positive metrics • Development approach • Automate data collection overnight. Real time metrics may be overkill. • Collect Data within Clarity • Capture Actuals as well as Baseline (or Budget) value for comparison • Capture the values at different levels of organization (OBS/Departments/Roles)
Technical Best Practices • Reporting • Should be in visual format (Clarity Dashboards /Webi/Crystal or Xcelsius Dashboards, not data extracts). • Dashboards should tell a story and highlight issues. Use 5 minute rule. • Show Trends • Drill down capability to show the details
Metrics Malfunctions You know you have a metric malfunction if you hear: • I didn’t know this was being measured. • We measure this because the boss says so. • I have no idea how I can affect this measure. • I have no idea what this number means. • I do not worry about that metric I measure my own.
