Linked projects’ progress
Σ (contribution × progress) = 43.3% points ÷ shares counted 80% = 54.1%
Initiative progress
The initiative runs wholly through its projects, so its progress is theirs: 54.1%
A proposed or cancelled project, or one with no approved share, is left out; a suspended one follows the rule set on the project weight model.

Impact KPIs & benefits
Measured apart from delivery progress: an initiative can be well advanced with no impact yet, and the other way round

Three separate measures
An example from this initiative: Unified Enterprise Network for HQ & the Branches
1Deliverable weight in the project
38.0%
Weight of «Civil works» among its deliverables
Deliverable weights add up to 100% inside the project; it progresses as they are accepted.
See where it comes from2Project weight in the portfolio
11.3%
Its relative weight in New Headquarters & Investment Assets Portfolio
Set by the project weight model; it feeds portfolio progress: relative weight × actual progress.
See where it comes from3Contribution to the initiative
35%
Its contribution to «Smart premises & communication channels»
Approved by strategy management; it feeds this initiative’s progress only.
Each is set in its own place and moves neither of the others: changing a deliverable’s weight touches neither the project’s portfolio weight nor its contribution.
