How a Milestone Trend Analysis Works

Trend analysis in project management is a precise method of tracking a project's expected progress versus its actual situation. This method plots the course of your project, or specific metrics within the project, and compares them to where they should be.

The secret to trend analysis is in reading the information properly and having the right software to help.
