## Project cockpit

The project page features a single cockpit at the top: global status (green / amber / red), completion %, forecast end date vs original, total load. Click any indicator to open its detail view.

## Step-by-step

1. ### Update milestones

   *Milestones* tab. Each milestone has a planned and actual date. Tick *Reached* or adjust the date to reflow the plan.
2. ### Review risks

   *Risks* tab. For each risk: probability, impact, mitigation, owner. The 5x5 matrix highlights the red risks.
3. ### Track late tasks

   *Late* filter on the kanban: Illizeo highlights tasks past due. Reassign or reschedule directly.
4. ### Run the weekly report

   Click *Report → Weekly*. Illizeo generates a concise PDF: progress, milestones, risks, next steps. Send it to the sponsor in one click.
5. ### Run the steerco

   The *Presentation* mode flips the page to full screen with arrow-key navigation. Ideal to drive the meeting without switching tools.

## Key indicators to track

| Indicator | Alert threshold | Recommended action |
| --- | --- | --- |
| % progress vs plan | Gap > 10 points | Revisit scope or add capacity |
| Late tasks | > 15 % of open total | Arbitrage meeting |
| Red risks | >= 1 | Sponsor action plan |
| Contributor load | > 110 % of capacity | Rebalance or reprioritise |
| Forecast end date | Slippage > 14 days | Exceptional steerco |

## FAQ

   How do I archive meeting notes?

   Can I compare multiple projects?
