Abstract: A system and process that provides a set of tools and interfaces that facilitate the generation of reports for the monitoring of key performance indicators. The process may provide a basic set of measurement services that can be combined and re-used with one another to form more complex measurement services, queries and reports. The system provides an interface to facilitate the ease with which the basic measurement services can be modified and combined to create desired reports without the need for programming knowledge or skills.

Abstract: An Engineered Labor Standards (“ELS”) scheduling system prepares preliminary estimates of task durations based on a subset of the conditions affecting task duration, then later prepares adjusted estimates when more information about the conditions becomes available. The actual time a resource spends performing the task is measured, and the estimates and measurements are stored in a database.
