Overview

When a comparison completes, the top of the Comparison tab displays a row of six hero cards summarising the key metrics. These cards give you a quick read on the scope and impact of changes before you drill into the detail tabs.

The Six Summary Cards

Card Behaviour

  • Cards use animated count-up effects when first rendered.
  • Hover over any card to see a tooltip with the full precision values.
  • Cards are responsive — on narrow viewports they stack vertically.
  • If the schedule has no resource or cost data, the Cost, Labour, Material, and Non-Labour cards show "No data" in a muted style.

Using the Dashboard

  1. Quick health check — Glance at the Change card to see whether changes are concentrated in additions, deletions, or modifications.
  2. Cost impact — Compare the Cost card delta against your change-order threshold to assess financial exposure.
  3. Resource impact — The Labour and Material cards reveal whether the scope change implies staffing or procurement adjustments.
  4. Context for drill-down — Use the dashboard numbers to decide which comparison tab (Activities, WBS, Resources) deserves your attention first.
