1402 - Advanced Auditing with Deltek wInsight Banded Reports Presented by: Mitch Mueller, Lockheed Martin Systems Integration
Abstract wInsight Banded Reports offer many new options that enhance advanced auditing. Learn how to create reports, such as Statistics by element VARs, status, owners and other attributes; Data integrity across wInsight units (EOC) and structures (WBS vs IPT); Automating E-mail lists; ETC Projection Stability and Validity; and Earned Value Margin of Error. 2007 Lockheed Martin Corporation

Business Systems Modernization • My Task: Optimize and Integrate Program Management Tools • Scope: • Legacy Cost Engine • Earned Value Management Systems (WBS, EVM, RAM, SOW) • Project Schedule Tools (IMP, Critical Path Management) • Risk Management Tools (Managing the Known Risks) • Risk Modeling (The Known and Unknown Risks, Correlations) and later: • Resource Management / Capacity Planning • Requirements Management / TPMs 2007 Lockheed Martin Corporation

The Goal Efficient Reporting for Management by Exception What is Management by Exception? Common Responses: • But I already have Earned Value Management requirements! (EVM VARs is a Management by Exception Process) • Request to print all Earned Value fields for all WBS elements. • Request to copy all the values of all elements and periods to Excel 2007 Lockheed Martin Corporation
Management By Exception A specific evaluation of Program reality (or a Program Forecast), compared to a Current and Stable Program Baseline (a Plan under CM). • Determine What to Manage (Cost, Schedule, …) • Document the Exception Condition: Title and Description • Document the Exception Metrics, Criteria and Thresholds Note: Exceptions without Thresholds are just Variances • Document all Actions / Management Response (The Purpose) To be useful, measurements must provide a basis for action Measurement without Management Response is only Reporting • Document and Create Filters, Views, Reports with Highlighting 2007 Lockheed Martin Corporation
The Value of Metrics and Reports Essentially, all models are wrong, but some are useful. • George E.P. Box There are no facts, only interpretations. • Frederick Nietzsche An approximate answer to the right question is worth a good deal more than the exact answer to an approximate problem. • John W. Tukey The only useful function of a statistician is to make predictions, and thus to provide a basis for action. • William Edwards Deming 2007 Lockheed Martin Corporation

Creating wInsight Exception Reports Starting with a report request or issue: • Review the Exception Purpose and Criteria for validity • Select Elements Using Exception Criteria and Thresholds • Display Requested Attributes of the selected Elements • Calculate and Display Requested Attributes of the selected Elements • Highlight the Exception Fields (Positive/Negative, H/M/L, Trend↑↓↔) • Sort to Prioritize the Exceptions (Ex: Top 10 CV, Top 10 SV, …) • Document all criteria and display in the report legend when possible Note: Acquire a Programmer and/or Web Developer proficient in JavaScript 2007 Lockheed Martin Corporation
