Increasing agility: With marketplace volatility greater than ever, your business needs to adapt quickly to internal and external pressures to stay competitive and future-ready. Not just to manage new ways of working or new services, but new ways of selling and delivering old ones – including global project workflows that demand the efficient allocation of resources in multiple locales. This requires more agility in planning business scenarios and resource and people allocation.
Increasing visibility: To be agile, a firm needs a single source of real-time strategic, operational, and project data to track billing, optimize utilization, provide visibility of project profitability and accurate forecasting, keep reporting streamlined, and give a full overview of every aspect of both simple and complex projects – including KPIs that deliver real value to the business. A complete overview will spot potential failures, anticipate people and material shortages, and provide project leaders with reporting capabilities that allow fast decision-making.
Decreasing admin overhead: With many firms still managing operations and projects with a series of disjointed systems and spreadsheets, valuable time is still being lost to admin overheads, leading to inefficiencies and inaccuracies throughout the business. You need a reliable way of measuring project progress and cost burdens to free you from the manual work of compiling reports on WIP, margins, and ETC/EAC.
