Create a Planned vs Actual % Bar Chart in Power BI

Cluster bar charts make it easy to compare planned vs. actual performance.

Setup: Planned (early or late distribution) vs. actual percentages, filtered at activity level.

Interactivity: Charts update with slicers and snapshots, letting you drill into specific activities.

Analysis: Significance matters — a 10% delay in concrete is more critical than in housekeeping.

Tooltips: Add cost variance, earned value, or labor units for deeper insights without cluttering the chart and compromising its main purpose.
