Monitoring is an essential part of proper project management. On the one hand a proper monitoring system can support the project management by identifying project progress and delays.

Nowadays many projects are funded by public sources. In such cases (of course also in other) a public monitoring/reporting is applied. The level of public reporting depends on the purposes. However, even very basic monitoring information can strengthen the understanding of all involved stakeholders.
Monitoring reports can be done narrative, by number and tables or by graphics.
