Automated Schedule Review Reporting
What is the Project Cracker suite?
Sound scheduling is the cornerstone of project success. Project Cracker is a suite of products, offering capabilities such as automated review and evaluation of submitted project schedules, creating a comprehensive report comparing current status to the month before, and highlighting any issues with the schedule that may require intervention.
Not only it saves a lot of person-hours in terms of preparing reports, but it can also be used by non CPM professionals to get quick feedback on any schedule.
The software also caters to CPM scheduling professionals, its dashboard highlights at a glance any concerns with the schedule then reflects that in a Schedule Integrity Score (Schedule Structure) and a Schedule Health Score (Schedule Progress). All monthly files are stored and compared to detect any discrepancies.
Other features include S-Curve and Trend analysis.
All analyses can be done at any WBS level, and master schedules can be automatically broken down and analyzed at the level of each individual subproject.
Manage Project Delays:
Be Proactive to Minimize the Unexpected with Project Cracker
Poor planning in project management is the number one mistake that leads to project failure. If something does not start right, it would be delusional to think that it will end right.
Construction project schedules are typically a compressed one on fast-track projects. To keep up with the competitive pressures, it becomes quite essential for companies to control projects, using all tools for tracking and monitoring.
Besides low-profit margins and the involvement of many parties at a time, these projects have an inherent risk of schedule slippages and subsequent monetary losses. Therefore, the potential delays must be looked into well ahead of time and mitigated by implementing suitable workarounds.
Even then the schedule may slip, and it is of utmost importance to keep a tab on delays arising out of various reasons, especially those from the other parties.
