Manage the Project Baseline

Use the project baseline for project plan execution. Structure status collection with it, and use it as the foundation for performance reporting.

Never change a baseline without using your change control processes, and keep track of any modifications made during the project.

Compare the baseline with actual results during project reviews and for analysis of lessons learned.
