Dashboard Explained

Single-project deep dive: headline gauges, a monthly revenue-vs-cost trend, and a full Phase → Stage financial breakdown. Project Summary is the PM's primary tool for monitoring a project's financial health — fee, invoicing, and recovery status by stage, all in one screen.

Updated in Insights Pro: This dashboard existed in Analytics Plus as a single-project drill-through (Fee/Cap, Revenue, Residual, WIP, Recovery %, Profit % gauges with a Phase/Stage table), and has been substantially redesigned for Insights Pro.

How to use it

Open Project Summary before any project review meeting to confirm financial status. Drill from Phase into Stage in the table to check % of Fee at the right level of detail — any stage approaching or exceeding 100% needs a billing or variation decision. Watch the Invoiced Revenue vs Cost Incurred trend for stages where cost is outrunning revenue month over month. There's no resourcing (planned vs actual hours) or staff cost data on this page — for that, use Projects Resourcing instead.
