The DIPP, or Devaux's Index of Project Performance, was first published in a 1992 article ("When the DIPP Dips: A P&L Index for Project Performance") in Project Management Journal. It was then re-published in 1999 in a PMI book Essentials of Project Control. It was also explored in depth in my books Total Project Control & Managing Projects as Investments.
The Wikipedia page for the DIPP [1] was started in December 2016. For 29 months, it received about 50-100 hits per month. Then suddenly,, since May 24, the number of page views [2] has shot up to almost 400 per month!
Needless to say, I am gratified! But I am also wondering why. The Wikipedia page for "critical path drag" [3] has been averaging about 900 hits per month for years. But on one day, 11/9/2016, it received about 275 views! It turned out that on that day, Asta Powerproject launched a new version that computed critical path drag!
So I am wondering if anyone here knows of something that could have triggered the sudden interest in the DIPP?
Fraternally in project management,
