What is a cockpit ?

On my project, I can see that today 3 of the 8 milestones set in my schedule have yet to be passed: their status is in red, giving me a warning.

Dans mon cockpit, présent ici sur le tableau de bord de ma plateforme, je vois la même chose :

• target which milestones should be completed today, here 100% (you can also display: 10 milestones out of 10)
• Done: what is actually done here 75%?
• Maximum delay : the number of days delay between the target schedule and theestimated actual schedule, in this case 30.

A cockpit Simple schedule value: Schedule progress is also available. It comes in four different forms:

• Y / X schedule progress
• Progress of target planning Y / X
• Planning progress in %.
• target planning progress in %.

Progress is calculated for each project milestone.

Example: if there are 3 milestones but only one has been completed, the cockpit will display 1/3

Schedule configuration

cockpit planning is configured in the platform configuration.

1. Seuil minimum du cockpit planning → Définir le nombre de jours avant la date cible : seuil d'alerte à l'approche d'un autre jalon. Cela correspond au seuil minimum que l'on retrouve dans le cockpit planning (tableau de bord projet et plateforme). Par exemple on saisit 5 : alors 5 jours avant la date de fin du jalon, celui-ci devient jaune.
2. Seuil maximum du cockpit planning → Définir le nombre de jours après la date cible : retard autorisé d'un jalon. Cela correspond au seuil maximum que l'on retrouve dans le cockpit planning (tableau de bord projet et plateforme). Par exemple si le délai est de 0, alors le jalon devient orange à la date de fin, et rouge 1 jour après la date de fin.
3. Cockpit planning in whole numbers → If this box is checked, then cockpit planning will no longer be expressed in percentages but in a number of milestones.

The cockpit can be based on an accumulation of representations (in this case: target, completed cumulated and estimated), or on a representation of your choice.

So, depending on where the cockpit is displayed, we'll have information on the platform's resources, the project, and so on.

For example, I can see that, compared to my target, my resources have made pretty good progress so far (their work is charged to completed). My cockpit is therefore displayed in green.

Resource cockpit configuration

The resource cockpit is configured in the resource category .

You can set up as many alarms as you like, with a minimum and maximum threshold, a color and a label for each alarm.

The cockpit can be based on an accumulation of representations (in this case: target, committed cumulated, invoiced cumulated and estimated...), or on a representation of your choice.

So, depending on where the cockpit is displayed, we'll have information on the platform's budget, the project's budget, and so on.

For example, I can see that the budget for my target has already been overspent budget My cockpit is therefore displayed in red.

budget cockpit configuration

Thebudget cockpit is configured in the budget category .

You can set up as many alarms as you like, with a minimum and maximum threshold, a color and a label for each alarm.

Cockpits can be added for exchanges and tasks.

The cockpit exchange counts the number of exchanges (on the platform, on the project... depending on where the cockpit is added): there is no calculation completed, it's just an indication.

In thetask cockpit , you can view current tasks, late tasks, completed tasks and total tasks (for the platform or project).

Therisk cockpit calculates the criticality of project/platform risks. Criticality is calculated according to severity and probability, for each risk added to a project.
