FOR the Supervisor

==================

1. Expectation for The Past Week

--------------------------------

a. allocated tasks      : 42

b. allocated hours      : 73.15

 

These data are directly obtained from NetOffice as the number of tasked

allocated during this week and total allocated hours associated with these

tasks.

 

2. Actual Figures

-----------------

a. tasks completed      : 22    (-48%)

b. total hours          : 67.8  ( -7%)

 

These data are also directly obtained from NetOffice as the number of tasked

completed and the number of hours used as logged by team members.

 

3. Expectation for Next Week

----------------------------

a. expected tasks       :

b. expected hours       :

 

I have to wait till this time next week to provide these information.

 

4. Comments

-----------

According to the data obtained from the system, there has been 42 allocated task

and only 22 are completed. The difference is mainly due to people forgetting to

change task status to "complete" when they finish tasks.

 

According to the data obtained from the system, the total worked hours are 67.8

out of 73.15 allocated hours. However, this is not mean we did a good

estimation. It is actually because many people do not update the system when

they finish tasks.

 

Overall, I don't think this week's information is of any use. We need to make

sure people are using the Online Task Tracking System properly first. But by

producing this report, it at least makes us aware of some metrics we can use to

refine our managerial process and also shed a light on what need to be improved.

3. Comments

-----------

First of all, since we have changed the task allocation cycle so that, from task

tracking perspective, a week now starts on Friday and ends on Thursday, I

have also provided the task report in this way.

 

Generally, there has been some improvemnts on following the task tracking

process. However, there are still 6 (out of 55) tasks that have not been logged

hours.

 

FOR the Supervisor

==================

Tasks allocated at start of week: No information

Tasks allocated during week:      No information

 

NOTE: Since we just introduced the "Thursday Task Creation" last week, so the

above information can not be provided until this week.

 

Tasks expected to be completed: 55 (100.45 hours exp.)

Tasks actually completed:       49 (89.50 hours exp.)

 

Actual effort spent on completed tasks:   As above 49 (89.50 hours exp.)

Actual effort spent on uncompleted tasks: No information

 

Estimated effort vs actual effort:   100.45 hours vs 89.5 hours = 1.122

 

Comments

--------

From next time onwards, I should be able to provide you with

 

        Tasks allocated at start of week:

        Tasks allocated during week:

 

I don't think the

 

        Actual effort spent on completed tasks:

        Actual effort spent on uncompleted tasks:

 

items are that useful.

 

From next week, I want to change the report to:

 

        Tasks allocated at start of week:

        Tasks allocated during week:

 

        Actual effort spent on completed tasks:

        Actual effort spent on uncompleted tasks:

 

        Estimated effort vs actual effort:

 

This time, the way I got the above information is by dumping the entire database

and directly executing SQL queries on them. I found it easier this way, and it

provides me with rather customised information. I can also reuse those queries

next time. I have also append the queries I have used for you to verify. So you

can trust me on that. :)

* Estimated effort vs actual effort:  1.07 (245.30 hours vs 228.60 hours)

 

Comments

--------

Last week was the first week that we decide to try to forecast tasks at the

start of each week, and it turns out that we actually managed to predict 50% of

tasks. Our aim this week is to increase this figure to 60%, and ultimately to

80% at the end of the year.

 

Again, some people still have not been accustomed to use task tracking system

regularly. 12 out of 121 tasks have not been logged any hours, which is not too

bad, but certainly improvable.

 

Time estimate has also been done reasonably well, but the problem I have

identified is the longer the task is, the more likely the prediction is not good

enough, for example:

 

having  "SRS sections 10(expect) 10(actual)" is just one in a million chance.

Tasks like this need to be further decomposed.

 

Kieran note, doing audit for 340 should not be document as a project task. I

know it takes a lot of effort but over the year it is even across everybody. So

the compromise is no one should record this.

Task Report for Week 10 (30th April to 6nd April)

                      Total:   306.21

 

2. Estimation Report:

---------------------

* Tasks allocated at start of week:     82 (Wed and Thu)

* Tasks allocated during week:          15

* Percentage allocated at the start:    85%

 

* Tasks expected to be completed:      114 (269.50 hours exp.)

* Tasks actually completed:            100 (257.21 hours)

 

* Estimated effort vs actual effort:  1.05 (269.50 hours vs 257.21 hours)

 

Comments

--------

Generally, there is a significant improvement in forecasting tasks at the start

of the week. The percentage has been increased from 50% last week to 80% this

week, which is what we will try to maintain. However, this week's report has

also exposed a number of problems.

 

Firstly, out of 306.21 hours of logged project work, only 257.21 hours are for

the tasks that due in this week. This indicates that people are logging hours

for tasks in previous week(s) that haven't been logged before.

 

Secondly, 14 (114-100) tasks are not completed (still an improvement from last

week though). This is due to either tasks due dates being extended or people

forgetting to change the status to complete.

2. Estimation Report:

---------------------

* Tasks allocated at start of week:     79 (Thu and Fri)

* Tasks allocated during week:          89

* Percentage allocated at the start:    47%

 

* Tasks expected to be completed:      168 (279.50 hours exp.)

* Tasks actually completed:            150 (252.05 hours)

 

* Estimated effort vs actual effort:  1.11 (279.5 hours vs 252.05 hours)

 

Comments

--------

One thing to note for this week is that the percentage of tasks allocated at the

start of the week has been decreased to 47% (lowest than any past week.) The

major causes are:

 

  1. planning in some sub-teams are not done ahead of time

  2. many unexpected tasks emerge during the week

  3. task allocation day turns out to be the day before 7th May

 

All of these can be avoid by planning ahead of time. In fact, we should be

planning not only for the coming week, but weeks and months ahead.

3. Comments

-----------

Good news to sub-team leaders: This week's pre-allocation rate is 65%. You guys

have made some steady improvements towards our 80% goal. Keep on going next

week.

 

There have always been a number of tasks unlogged each week, which is quite

annoying at least, regardless of the reasons. Just to remind again, please make

sure that:

 

1. tasks are logged properly and on time.

2. in case there is a slippage, the assigner of the task needs to be notified,

   with the cause of the slippage.

3. in case a task has been cancelled, due to some external or internal reasons,

   such as client meeting being cancelled, the assignee of the task should change

   the status to 'suspend' to make the task outstanding among all overdue tasks.

 

I have decided to, from this week, list all overdue tasks in the report. From

next time, one bad point will be awarded to every occurrence of the names

listed in the overdue tasks list below, if the above three actions have not been

taken. The overdue tasks for last week are:

5. Comments

-----------

This week's overdue tasks (or rather "unlogged tasks") are so many (24) that I

don't even want to list. However, I have identified some major contributors

below.

 

 sasson         7 tasks

 masyurit       6 tasks

 qlq            3 tasks

 gmfr           3 tasks

 

I don't think I would issue one bad point to each of the occurrence above, as I

have said last week, otherwise someone's name will be reported to the supervisor

immediately as a result of reaching the "worst" end on the honour board.

However, there shouldn't be any reason for not logging 6 or 7 tasks each week

(which is like the majority of tasks). I would like to hear from the above

people if there is any particular difficulty for using Netoffice, otherwise,

please start logging hours punctually from the next week we resume because it is

a prerequisite, for the task report to be useful, that people are logging

information on hours spent.

 

I was also uncomfortable with the 53% figure representing the tasks allocated

before the start of last week. I went one step further to list this information

based on sub-teams and I also identified some major contributor for this

figure.

I understand for QA tasks, there is some degree of uncertainty. For instance,

the task of processing a PIP is only initiated when a PIP is submitted. In that

case, I would recommend allocate half hour to every body per week because we

have enough experience to make a reasonable good estimation on this. And this is

the whole point of doing planning and effort estimation. For the Requirement

tasks, I have checked the tasks in details and I couldn't find any evidence to

convince myself that there could possibly be any reason for not allocating even

one task at the start of the week. The requirement sub-team leader should make

sure that this will not happen again.

5. Comments

-----------

Considering it is holiday now, it is quite impressive we still maintain a level

of commitment towards our project. Since we are expected to work above 20 hours

per week, it is also understandable that it is pretty hard to allocate that

amount of tasks at the start of the week.

5. Comments

-----------

While other people are having holidays, I am very please that we have worked

297.24 hours in total for our project last week, which is 22.80 hours per person

in average. Some people, like Yuri, Nat and MeiLing have even worked for over 30

hours!! Meiling is even 40 hours. (You really think yourself as full time?) I am

very pround of you guys and I think all of us should be pround.

 

I have to confess that I have 4 tasks overdue last week. There are 11 tasks due

on 16th that hasn't been logged, which I guess is partially because of the crash

of the server.

5. Comments

-----------

The 49% allocation is mainly due to Wendy's away.

 

There are a number of overdue tasks, both in this week and from previous weeks.

I will approach each of the responsible party to see if I can help out.
