Project Status Report
Report progress without hiding risk or uncertainty.
Project use
Use this to communicate progress, risk, and decisions without hiding uncertainty.
- Report what changed since the last update.
- Show completed work, current work, blocked work, and upcoming decisions.
- State risks and schedule confidence plainly.
- Ask for decisions or help where needed.
- Keep the format consistent so trends are visible over time.
Expected output
A project record that states the decision, owner, boundary, dependency, next checkpoint, and evidence needed to continue.
Common failure mode
Reporting activity while concealing blockers or forecast change.
Use notes
| Best trigger | Use before a project decision becomes expensive to reverse. |
|---|---|
| Evidence | Keep enough context to explain the decision later without reconstructing conversations. |
| Review point | Review when scope, stakeholder expectation, timing, risk, or ownership changes. |
