# manage project metrics — Project Manager

As a Project Manager, 'managing project metrics' isn’t about *collecting* data; it's about turning that data into actionable insights. Daily, this means regularly checking your dashboard – likely in tools like Jira, MS Project, Asana or dedicated BI platforms (PowerBI, Tableau) – to monitor things like burn-down/burn-up rates, task completion percentages, cost variance, and schedule performance index (SPI/CPI). You're proactively spotting trends *before* they become problems. It’s about asking 'why' when a metric deviates: is a task taking longer than estimated due to unforeseen complexity? Is budget overrunning because of scope creep?  You then communicate these findings – concisely, visually – to stakeholders.
