Solutions & Benefits for Project Managers

Substantial benefits are to be gained from using Project Pilot^® to manage any project or business initiative, large or small.

Benefits include:

• Reduced risk and lower costs
• Higher control to meet deadlines within budget
• Real-time transparent visibility of project status
• Future forecasting and ‘what if’ analysis.
• Significant resource gains, such as fewer resources employed in Project Offices and as Project Administrators. Project Pilot^® ensures collection, collation, filing, retrieval and presentation of information.
• Less effort spent on:
  • Reports - Manually collecting, collating, organising and communicating information.
  • Time sheets - Progress is reported once.
  • Templates & Logs - No more need for: Issue Logs, Risk Logs, Change Request Forms and Logs, Test Cases, Test Exceptions, Project Reports, Glossaries and Guidelines (Methodologies). The majority of methodology templates are replaced so no need for transcribing things time and again – once is enough.
  • Meetings - Fewer meetings required as the information for projects is centrally available to everyone involved (meeting minutes are entered into the system and assignments are automatically distributed).
  • Progress reviews - Less effort is required to manually follow up on assignments as team members have access to update their assignments in real time.
  • Analysing out-of-date or inappropriate information Information presented is factual and up-to-date, backed up by drill-down features for analysis.
  • Collating information - From a variety of sources.
  • Chasing progress information.
