In my job, I have a direct relationship with my manager. My manager often asks me for project reports and information about our Key Performance Indicators, or KPIs. These are very important for our work. KPIs are like a score that tells us if our projects and our company are successful. They help us to know if we are achieving our goals.
I frequently review different KPIs with my manager. For example, we check our delivery deadlines. This tells us if we are on schedule. We also look at our project costs. My manager needs to know if we are on or under budget. Staying on budget is very important. I also analyze how we use our resources and the results of our tender processes. My work is about using data to show our progress.
Sometimes, in a meeting, my manager may ask me for specific numbers. For example, my manager can say, “I need details on the project status and if we are within the assigned budget.” I answer with real numbers. For example, I can say, “Currently, we have 95% of our deadlines met,” or “Our costs are 3% below the estimated budget.”
Our conversations about KPIs are very helpful. We use the data to find any risks in our projects and to find ways to improve. This helps us to make our processes better and to make sure our projects are successful. My work is fundamental to helping the team and the company make good decisions.
