The Results

The main benefits from applying the practices above are: 

• The percentage of projects completed went up from 16% to 35%.
• Team work: with the daily meetings and a weekly goal all members started to collaborate more with one another 
• Before the Red Hots tracking, the forecast was the coordinator’s task. Now everybody knows what is happening with every single project of their teams.
• Managing risks before deadline: the number of critical situations decreased as we anticipated problems 
• Avoid overload: the more we anticipate the projects the fewer we’ll have accumulated in end of the month
