Infrastructure

Improve the productivity and transparency of national and local infrastructure development projects with a proven solution for project performance monitoring.

An investment in infrastructure development often commits large amounts of government funds to long-term projects, often without adequate visibility into project performance. Implementation agents are often state-owned companies that must report to central planning and coordination bodies.

  • Better practices
  • Communication and collaboration
  • Visible information
  • Reliable data
  • Regulatory complianc
  • Change management
 

To add to the complexity of delivery organization, many infrastructure projects are cross-cutting, meaning they are related to the delivery objectives of two or more implementing agents. For these types of projects, a tool that easily scales is necessary to provide a project and portfolio management platform to monitor and visualize project performance across an extended network of implementation agents.

Capital improvement planning

• Identify investment candidate projects as part of a streamlined, collaborative initiation process that feeds into the long-term planning process. Develop multi-year budgets, manage funding sources, and prioritize projects based on weighted criteria that align with the government’s strategic objectives.

Project cost control

• Easily configure workflow to standardize all cost transactions. Manage cost breakdown structures and business rules, assigning strict or advisory compliance.

• Universal link to any other type or business process documentation. Track baseline budgets, actual costs, and manage forecasts manually or automatically. Interface with financial applications and ERPs to improve transparency and control.

Schedule planning and scheduling

• Plan, schedule and monitor projects around the world with the world’s leading scheduling solutions now offering advanced scheduling. Interactive Gantt charts allow project planners and managers to communicate timelines and milestones. Use schedule dates to automatically drive cash flow and performance management with earned value. Analyze risks and quantify likelihood and potential impact on cost and schedule. Track and manage resource capacity and allow team members to report progress using a simple mobile app.

Contract and change management

• Manage all contract types at any level of detail, including contract-centric views of baselines, actuals, and forecasts with cash flow integration.

• Attach drawings, specifications and any other supporting documentation to contract records.

• Execute total change management from a single platform with visibility into risks, trends, and other information such as contractor RFIs. Streamline and automate payments to contractors while implementing compliance documentation sharing

By providing the visibility needed to allocate the right resources to the right project, the applications help organizations make the most of a reduced workforce. By allowing all team members to access, view, annotate and collaborate on essential documentation, the solutions accelerate decision making, accelerate production and increase efficiency. Providing a common solution and single database to manage change, mitigate risk and keep all projects and portfolios on track, the applications provide the end-to-end information utilities need to succeed in a market. volatile. The result: improved communication, better decision making and better project execution across the portfolio.
