Weekly status report

A weekly status report is generated from the project database. The Project Manager will update the project database on the status of their project(s). For new projects the Project Manager shall be added to the project line in the database. This will allow the Project Manager to edit and update the project information throughout its lifecycle. The weekly reports will summarise any significant issues that have arisen in the past week. Any issue that may require the issue of an exception report will be summarised in the control measures column.

The Capital accountant will update the relevant financial information on the database for each project.

Each project is to be updated no later than close of business on the Thursday of that week.

Access to project database (Sharepoint) shall be provided by the Information Team.
