This assignment has two parts: The first is a milestone for the paper, the instructions for the paper are below: Please email me with questions:

1. Select a Project ( a known project which I have chosen as the EAGLE P3 Project in Denver Colorado the A Line Commuter Rail from Denver Union Station to Denver International Airport) to research.

• provide a two-page submission in Module 2 noting your selected option for the Portfolio Project found in Module 8,
• a timeline of activities over the remaining weeks for portfolio production,
• concerns and roadblocks you have on the portfolio, and
• how you will overcome those. No need for formal APA submission for this assignment.

Your timeline of activities is most critical as are your concerns, roadblocks, and how you will overcome those. It is expected that your timeline shows at least one task each week from Week 2 through Week 8, and many weeks should have multiple tasks. Every effort should be made to thoroughly examine your portfolio options, and to complete this milestone in Week 2 to give you enough time to complete the work. Once your work on this milestone is graded, you may not change portfolio options and should move forward with your Week 2 selection.

2. The Final paper should consist of :

2. Establish the importance of metrics in effective management of time, cost, and scope.

3. Apply the knowledge of project metrics to identify the key characteristics of properly defined metrics.

4. Characterize Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) as used in metric-driven project management.

5. Apply value-based project management metrics as important in selecting the right metrics.

6. Explore project performance dashboards including designs, use, and limitations.
