CAPM Practice: Determine how to document project controls of predictive, plan-based projects

Sprint velocity and burndown charts are agile artifacts, not tools used in predictive project reporting. Predictive performance reports include: earned value metrics (SPI, CPI, SV, CV), milestone status, risk register updates, quality metrics, issue status, and cost/schedule forecasts — all based on comparison against approved baselines.

**Why not A:** Risk status and issues summary is a standard component of predictive project performance reporting. Monitoring risks and issues against the risk register and issue log is a core predictive project control activity reported regularly to stakeholders.

**Why not C:** Milestone status is a fundamental element of predictive project reporting. Tracking progress against planned milestones is one of the most common and important ways to communicate schedule performance in predictive projects.

**Why not D:** Earned value analysis (SPI, CPI, SV, CV) is a hallmark of predictive project performance monitoring. These metrics compare actual performance against approved baselines and are central to how predictive projects measure and report progress.
