Percent Complete Calculations

SmartPM uses Percent Complete  to measure progress and compare what was planned versus what has actually occurred in your schedule. This metric plays a key role in assessing schedule health, forecasting completion, and tracking earned progress over time.

Planned Percent Complete: The percentage of work that should be complete as of the current data date, based on the baseline schedule.

Actual Percent Complete: The percentage of work that is actually complete, based on the most recent schedule update. 

Overall Percent Complete:

The Overall Percent Complete represents a blended progress calculation that combines cost, resource, and duration metrics. This provides a comprehensive view of total project progress across all tracked dimensions.

Cost-Based Percent Complete: 

SmartPM identifies all activities with cost associations and calculates progress using each activity’s Earned Cost Value.

Resource-Based Percent Complete:

For activities that include manhour or resource assignments, SmartPM measures progress using the Actual Units reported.

Duration-Based Percent Complete

SmartPM evaluates all activities based on duration progress, measuring how much time has been earned relative to what was planned.

Final Calculation

SmartPM calculates the Total Project Percent Complete by blending the Current Earned Cost, Resources, or Duration values across all activities
