| Project burndown is usually communicated in graphical form. Project burndown is very useful to quickly communicate |
| the overall project progress based on actual data and to diagnose a trend for the remainder of the project. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| The project burndown chart consists of two perspectives, the horizontal axis showing the iterations and the vertical |
| axis indicating the remaining points from the work items list. Additionally the average burndown from previous |
| iterations is calculated and a trend for the remainder of the project diagnosed and forecasted. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| Project burndown management is a enabling technique that allows direct linkage of iteration goals to work items. The |
| project manager will use the project burndown information for communicating progress and trend to senior management. |
