Project Status Report for Month Ending <month-year>
(Notes to author – This is expected to be a short document, regardless of project size. In fact, the report
may not be any longer than the template. The primary purpose of this report is to communicate to the
readers if the project is on track and to indicate where it is not on track and what is being done about this.
It is NOT to provide a record what work the team did and what work the team will do – the focus is on
deviations from plan, not writing what about what is going to plan. This makes for a shorter and more
focused report. If there is a need to record more detail, then it can be done via an Appendix or attached
document).

Management Summary
Enter a very brief summary of whether or not the project is on target to meet its key delivery dates, and is
on target to meet its budget objectives.
If not, what is the key reason (s). You might also indicate in
here any significant risks that are in danger of occurring or have occurred, and what you need from your
management and the client in the short term to make the project successful. This section should be no
more than half to one page, regardless of project size. It should be just one sentence if everything is
going according to plan.

Progress and Deviations from Plan
Provide a brief report of any parts of the project that are NOT progressing as planned, and what is being
done to address this. Achievement of key milestones or other significant measure of progress towards
the key milestones may be noted. This section is NOT to just be a commentary on what you and your
team did last month. If there is a need to record this for audit purposes or to demonstrate the activities to
the client, then put this in an appendix to this report.
Risk Register
This may be attached to the report if it is tracked in a separate risk database. Make sure that this section,
or the attachment, just contains the key project risks. If the risks are documented here, use the following
format.
