In our business, we need to operate in the higher probability areas.
- There isn't much value for us to see the 25%, 50%, 75% probability distribution points on the Per-User Completion Dates report.
- There is less value for us to see the 50% line in the Completion Date (Over Time) report.
- The 5% line adds value because it shows the "snowball's chance in hell." Basically, there is absolutely no chance of delivering before that date and very little chance delivering anywhere near that date.
It would be great if we could choose what probability points we wanted to drive by and show in the reports. Some companies may actually want to bet on 50/50, others have legitimate needs for operating around the 90% area.
I know we don't have to use the lower probability points but they create noise on the reports that distracts from what we want to show. It would also be better to hone in on the probability levels that have value for us.
