Project Indicators

An indicator is a metric or combination of metrics that provide insight into the software processes, a software project, or the product itself. The insight helps the project manager or software engineers to adjust the process, the project and make it more efficient.

• Uncover problem areas before the go critical
• adjust workflows or tasks
• evaluate the project team’s ability to control the quality of software work products
