This Project Progress Dashboard was created using Microsoft Power BI. It offers a comprehensive overview of the organizationโs projects, showcasing financial investments, progress across various phases, and key performance metrics. The dataset used to develop this dashboard was sourced from Kaggle.
By analyzing the data, we can identify key trends, areas of strength, and opportunities for improvement.
Below is a detailed breakdown of the dashboardโs insights.

โช๏ธThe most expensive project is Anderson LLC in IT, with a cost of $933,536.74, requiring close monitoring to avoid overruns.
โช๏ธThe least expensive project is Armstrong Inc in Media, costing $86,282.79, reflecting efficient resource allocation.
โช๏ธHigh-performing projects, such as Abbott, Barrows, and Armstrong, are nearing completion at 94%, showcasing strong progress.
โช๏ธLow-performing projects, such as Anderson LLC, are at just 2% completion, requiring immediate intervention.
โช๏ธThe total cost of all projects is $498,308,678.49, indicating a significant investment portfolio.
This data underscores the importance of closely managing high-cost, low-progress projects to ensure timely completion and budget adherence.

โช๏ธStreamlining project initiation processes is essential, as 33.9% of projects are still in the โNot Startedโ phase.
โช๏ธAddressing delays in the development phase, which has the lowest average completion at 48%, could improve efficiency.
โช๏ธDeployment and post-production phases, both at 49%, should be optimized to speed up delivery.
โช๏ธExploring ways to increase yearly project benefits could amplify the organizationโs overall impact and value creation.
While the organization is progressing steadily, key areas such as project initiation, development efficiency, and benefit scaling present significant opportunities for improvement.
