This Week's Detailed Case Study Information

It's a chilly afternoon in the meeting room of Alberta Energy Innovations (AEI). The team is meeting around a table littered with blueprints, project plans, and nearly-empty coffee cups. Amidst the flurry of papers and scribbled notes, Joe looks particularly perturbed. The ambitious Project Clean Sweep is falling behind schedule already, evidenced by the Project Progress Score, which has dipped from 90% to 70%. The Team Efficiency Index, a measure of how effectively the team is working towards their project goals, has dropped from 85% to 60%. Mark, known for his unconventional sense of humor, is taking the issue with a sense of gravity. He realizes that the current project management methods are not sufficient to keep the project on track. The Task Completion Rate, which gauges the number of tasks completed against those planned, has slipped from 98% to 78%.
