Before I start sharing my thoughts on today鈥檚 topic, let me ask you a couple of things:

• Do you feel that the construction projects are getting more and more complex?
• Are you experiencing the complexity of the work because of larger project teams?
• Is the projects related risk greater than ever before?

If the answer to the questions above is yes, then, you are aware that today’s project execution generates a humongous amount of information that needs to be processed.聽All this leads to the necessity of stable and disciplined management in order to avoid errors and the consequences.聽Even if you deployed some kind of software for project management, the question is: Do you have the right one or do you use its functionalities properly?

Management Software Checklist

In order to make the right analysis, I found a checklist that can help you. Here are the 10 signs that can show you if you need management software or not. Check them out:

1. Design issues are not detected on time and resolved right away
2. The documents which the project team is working with, are not updated or out of date.
3. The communication between team members is broken. Emails are missed and the response is passive or nonexistent.
4. You don鈥檛 have the control or the overall idea of what your project team is doing. Also, you can鈥檛 realize your requests for true and accurate information when you need it.
5. The workflows are changing or breaking and you are not informed. Usually, you find out after the deadline is passed.
6. Fieldwork results in a huge amount of paperwork and you can鈥檛 tie end to end.
7. At the end of each project, it is a real nightmare when you need to hand out O&M manuals.
8. You don鈥檛 have a viable milestone setting process and usually, the milestones are missed.
9. Usually, you are pressured to add additional project costs – which results in going over the budget.
10. Often, your projects are like roller coasters. Filled with conflicts and errors, rather than smooth workflow and delivering of the desired results for the customer.

To Deploy or Not to Deploy

What did you learn? Was this list helpful? If you answered yes to more than one, then you seriously need to think about deploying construction management software in your organization.
