Work Performance Information (WPI)

Performance data collected from controlling processes and analyzed in comparison with plan components and baselines.

Definition

WPI provides context such as status of deliverables, implementation status of change requests, and forecasted estimates to complete. It is an output of the controlling processes in each knowledge area.

Example

A CPI of 0.87 calculated from cost data is work performance information.

Exam tip

Data becomes information when compared against the plan.
