Today’s challenges in managing customer projects orcapital investment projects

Project related data and processes are often distributed over multiple tools andapplications■ Many processes (e.g. Project estimation, Forecasting, Issue Management, Change

Management, Risk Management) are often done in Excel or in specialized 3rd partysolutions

■ The different tools and applications are often not or only poorly integrated with theEnterprise Management (ERP) backbone system

This leads to the following challenges■ Lack of “single version of the truth” with different tools capturing redundant

information■ Delays in reporting due to periodic synchronizations & manual reconciliation■ Missing transparency in the organization about the true status of the projects■ Missing ability to learn from previous projects for future projects■ Missing consistent change management with negative impact on the project

margins■ Project Managers spend too much time with internally focused activities

Typical customer pain points in project management

Missing repeatability and transparency■ Due to their unique nature projects have a tendency to fail or to result in cost

overruns. To avoid such failures one needs- Better possibilities to learn from previous projects- Increased transparency on the true status of the projects

Financial Planning with Excel■ Financial Planning is often done out side the ERP system using Excel solutions for

bid estimation, base line planning and forecasting. This results in- Cumbersome information exchange between controlling and project management- Missing process control- Poor data quality

Internal focus of Project Managers■ Project Managers spend too much time with internally focused activities (often due to

not adequate system support with multiple fragmented solutions)

No proper change management■ Insufficient handling of change requests leads to reduced project profitability
