Daily, Weekly and Monthly Progress Reports: Why They Matter

Project progress reports are like a glass-bottomed boat for project managers, offering clear visibility of what's actually happening. They should include the current task, percentage complete, expected challenges, scheduled completion deadline, and if everything is going as initially projected. The frequency of delivery depends on milestones, with daily reports keeping managers up-to-date and weekly reports painting a detailed picture. Monthly reports offer an overall review tool for learning about team competence in managing challenges.
