Metrics & Formulas

 Metrics help to measure qualities.

Given below the list of Metrics tracked in each phase of Project Life Cycle. 

Phase

Derived Measure/ Metrics

Formula

Definition

Project Monitoring and Control

On Time Delivery Index (%)

1.  

# Implementations completed on time

# Implementations delivered

 

2.  

# Migrations completed on time

    # Migrations delivered

% implementations competed on the Implementation end date (Planned)

 

% migrations competed on the Migration end date (Planned)

Project Monitoring and Control

Schedule Variance (%)

(Actual # days to complete implementation – Planned # of days to complete implementation)

Planned # of days to complete implementation

 

(Actual # days to complete migration – Planned # of days to complete migration)

Planned # of days to complete migration

% variance between the planned and actual schedule for implementation

 

 

 

 

% variance between the planned and actual schedule for migration

Project Monitoring and Control

Size Variance (%)

(Actual Size - Estimated Size)

Estimated Size

% variance between the planned and actual size for implementation/migration

Project Monitoring and Control

Requirement Stability Index (%)

(1- (# changed requirements + # deleted + # added/# initial requirements))

Provides perceptibility to the scale and effect of requirements changes.

Design

Design Review Effectiveness (%)

(#Design Review Defects / (Design Review Defects + Code Review Defects + Unit Testing Defects + QA Testing Defects + User Acceptance Testing )) *100

 

Design

Code Review Effectiveness (%)

(Code Review Defects / (Code Review Defects + Unit Testing Defects + QA Testing Defects + User Acceptance Testing))*100

 

Project Monitoring and Control

Effort Variance (%)

(Actual Effort - Planned Effort)

Planned Effort

% variance between the planned and actual effort for implementation/migration

Project Monitoring and Control

Resource Utilization (%)

(Actual Effort / Actual Variance Effort)*100

 

Testing

Test Coverage (%)

# Test Cases Executed/# Test Cases Written

Gives an understand of what is being tested and how much is being tested

Testing

Defect Leakage (%)

(# Pre Defects/(# Pre Defects + # Post Defects))*100

 

Testing

Defects Removal Efficiency (%)

# QA Defects

(# QA Defects + # Post QA Defects)

Efficiency of QA team in unearthing defects for the Implementation and Migration teams to remove them before UAT

Testing

Delivered Defects Density (Defects per CP)

# Post QA Defects

Actual Size

 

% of injected defects that escaped QA to UAT

Testing

Design Review Defect Density

Design Review Defects

Size in Complexity Point

 

Testing

QA Test case review efficiency

Test Case Review Defects

Effort Spent on Test Case Reviews

 

Testing

QA Defect Density

QA Testing Defects

Testing

UAT Defect Density

User Acceptance Testing

Size in Complexity Point

 

Testing

Unit Testing Effectiveness

(Unit Testing Defects/ (Unit Testing Defects+ QA Testing Defects+ User Acceptance Testing))*100

 

 

Productivity (Complexity Points per Person Hour)

Actual Size of Implementation [or] Migration

Actual effort for Implementation [or] Migration

# of complexity points completed in 1 person hour

 

Effort Overrun

(Total Estimated Effort - Actual Effort on the project)

Size in Complexity Point

 

 

First Time Right (%)

# Implementations [or] # Migrations closed with zero QA and post QA defects

# Implementations closed

 

% of Implementations/Migrations closed with zero QA and post QA defects
