Advantages of TPG MTA Client for Microsoft Project
“TPG MTA Client is now installed on my computer since yesterday and I am really excited about it! We were previously using an MTA based on VBA code and Excel, which left a lot of room for error. TPG MTA Client will now quickly replace this in the company. The handling is self-explanatory, and changing milestone names or adding new milestones is very easy. Many thanks for this. It’s a great help to us!”
Stefan Linke, Manager Project & Capacity Coordination, Sunfire GmbH
“The MTA tool has all the features you would expect and without the need for additional external storage or files. Easy to use and can be customized to a sufficient extent to your own needs and behaviors. Filter on milestones, design of the diagram or report behavior (current date or status date) – no problem.“
David Hermann, Project Engineer, GETEC Group
A Milestone Trend Analysis (MTA) is an easy-to-read combination of history and projection for selected project milestones. It is used to graphically illustrate time-related discrepancies.
When milestones are updated, the completion dates are reforecast according to the progression of the project. Connecting the interrelated symbols produces a curve that clearly shows the progression over time. The best-case completion of the original plan is represented by a horizontal line. If this line is rising, it signifies a delay in the schedule; a falling line means that completion will be ahead of schedule.
An MTA can only provide meaningful information, if the data is always up to date. This is only the case if the dates of the milestones have been correctly updated before the regular snapshots. Thus, an MTA can also lead to an improvement in the project participants’ awareness of deadlines.
