Warehouse Software Rollout Update
10 slides, Educator Modern theme
Prompt: Monthly status update for a warehouse software rollout: overall status amber, completed work, schedule, open risks with owners and decisions needed
What the status report covers
Overall status at a glance
A red, amber or green summary with the one or two reasons behind it, so the room knows where the project stands in the first minute.
Progress and milestones
What was finished since the last report, what is in progress, and the milestones ahead with their dates.
Risks, issues and decisions
Each risk or issue with an owner and the next action, plus the decisions you need from the people in the meeting.
Next period's plan
The work planned for next week or next month, so the following report has something clear to measure against.
How it works
- Describe the project, the reporting period and the status, or paste this week's notes.
- SlideMaker drafts the status report deck, usually 8 to 10 slides, in the order a team update runs.
- Change the numbers and names, then present it in the meeting or download it as PowerPoint or PDF.
For tips on presenting the update once it is ready, see Microsoft's guide to creating and delivering an effective presentation.
Questions
What should a project status report presentation include?
The overall status, progress since the last report, milestones and dates, budget, risks and issues with owners, decisions needed and the plan for the next period. SlideMaker drafts slides for each of these.
Can I use it for a weekly status report?
Yes. Describe this week's progress and blockers and it drafts a weekly status report deck. Next week, describe the new week and make the next one in the same shape.
Can I paste my own notes?
Yes. Paste meeting notes or a task list into the box and the slides follow your content instead of inventing it.
Is it free?
Yes. SlideMaker is free to use. You can try it before signing in; uploading a file to build from needs a free account.
