Integrate Cost and Schedule for Seamless Earned Value Management
Effectively integrating cost and schedule management is transformative for project success, and Pivotal provides a powerful solution that seamlessly integrates these aspects. Here's how Pivotal enables cost and schedule integration:
- True earned value management: Pivotal's cost system interfaces and connects with both ERP and P6 files, enabling the user to run true earned value management. This integration ensures accurate tracking of project progress, cost performance, and schedule adherence, providing valuable insights for effective decision-making.
- Manage float with an early warning system:Contractors can manage float within the system, while owners have the ability to set permissions to receive early warnings on trends. This collaborative approach allows for proactive identification of potential schedule and cost deviations, enabling timely corrective actions to be taken.
- Contractor portal for seamless integration:Pivotal provides contractors with their own portal to upload cash flow and forecasts, allowing seamless integration into the overall project management process. This ensures that contractor data aligns with the project's cost and schedule objectives, facilitating accurate resource allocation and cost tracking.
- Resource and cost-loaded schedules:Pivotal simplifies the process of resource and cost loading schedules. This allows the control budget to be cash-flowed and tracked over the project durations, providing visibility into the financial implications of the project schedule. This integration of resources, costs, and schedules empowers accurate project planning, monitoring, and forecasting.
The outcome of Pivotal's integrated cost and schedule management is the ability to make predictable outcomes for the project. By aligning the control budget and schedule, Pivotal enables proper earned value analysis, ensuring accurate measurement of project performance, and facilitating proactive decision-making.
