Discover project trends like never before 

Are you ready to take your project insights to the next level? We’re excited to announce the release of the Baseline Dashboard Blueprint to help you do it! This blueprint is your launchpad for smarter, faster project decisions with its streamlined dashboard containing four powerful reports.   

Why are baselines a big deal?  

Baselines are more than just a project snapshot—they’re your time machine for project management. Whether you capture them at kickoff or mid-flight, baselines empower you to compare what was planned vs. what’s happened, letting you spot problem tasks, scope creep, and project trends at a glance.

Use the in-progress reports to proactively catch projects and tasks that need attention now. Dive into the completed reports to learn from past projects and fine-tune your future plans for smooth sailing next time. Each report is laser-focused to help you celebrate efficiencies or illuminate bottlenecks fast.

Quick Tips:  

The reports are built to support a wide audience, so you may need to adjust filters, views, and groupings—especially around status or date/time. You may not need all the reports, so feel free to remove them. All reports are tagged with #baseline for easy search, and we recommend making copies before editing.   

Reports Included in the Baseline Dashboard:  

  • Baseline | In Progress Projects - Evaluate variances in dates, durations, and hours between baseline and planned fields to identify scope creep or trends.  
  • Baseline | Completed Projects - Compare baseline vs. planned or actual fields to uncover trends in completed projects.  
  • Baseline | In Progress Tasks - Track task-level variances to catch issues early.  
  • Baseline | Completed Tasks - Review completed tasks to improve future planning and execution.
