Searching for Projects

Searching for Projects

For organizations with a significant number of projects and assessments, the ability to filter projects allows organizations to gain important insights and analyze data efficiently. 

By default, the Carve project dashboard shows all of the projects in all of the portfolios. To filter projects by portfolio, select the desired Portfolio from the dropdown list. The dashboard will automatically filter.

To filter by additional project criteria:

1. Select Show Advanced Criteria
2. Click Add Condition
3. Choose your desired search criteria
4. Click Search

Available search criteria includes:
  1. Template Type (PDRI - Industrial, PDRI - Building, Construction Readiness, Construction Readiness - Smaller Projects, Commissioning, etc.).
The PDRI Template Types show all versions of that particular assessment. For example, the PDRI - Industrial template type filter will display assessments across 3.8, 4.0, and PDRI MATRS 5.0.
  1. Gate (drop-down list assigned based on template assigned to the portfolio, e.g. Project Definition Rating Index (PDRI) 1, 2, 2i, 3)

  3. Date range
