Many people who have just moved to management positions are often at a loss as to how to control the progress of the project. With regard to progress, it is easier to think of inquiries and requests to write daily and weekly newspapers and so on. These measures are incomplete in the first place. Because schedule management is not just about getting progress information, it's more important.

Yes, we also need to verify the progress information. It's like saying this is a task where you ask someone to download a software installer. You want the Linux version. When he has finished downloading the Windows version, he may tell you that the task is done.

Second, these measures are too inefficient. Imagine a team of 30 people. If you ask about everyone's progress in general, what will be the result?

Besides, others may find you annoying.

On the other hand, corrective actions should be taken when progress is found to be behind schedule, such as behind schedule, or when a task can take less time. That is to say, there are also certain control measures. For example, a tester is going to test a Linux scheduled task script. I asked him to inform me of the progress, and he said he was still waiting. So, what is he waiting for? Because he set the scheduled task he was going to test to run every 2 hours. I told him whether setting that scheduled task to run every 5 minutes would have the same effect from a test point of view (this script usually takes only a few seconds to execute). In fact, I expected him to do that in advance, so I specially asked him to let him know the progress in time.

In addition, schedule management should be taken into account when arranging the project plan. In the process of project implementation, we also need to pay attention to the schedule risk all the time.

IBM developerWorks has an article on how to control progress, based on the author's actual project management experience. For those who are interested, please refer to:
