"S" curves for monitoring project progress
Article Abstract:
The "S" accumulated progress curves with normal distributions can be used to evaluate actual progress and spot potential problems during project implementation in advance. If problems in project implementation are not detected, the actual progress curve exhibits similar properties with the theoretical curve. On the other hand, significant differences are perceived between the curves if a problem in project execution occurs.
