The Challenges of Project Delivery

Engineering and construction projects are plagued by systemic coordination and communication challenges - and delivery teams get hit especially hard. Well delivered projects require a commitment to sound planning and scheduling practices and are the result of driving multiple organizations together with clear standardized processes that ensure the right resources are placed on the right work assignments at the right time.

A lack of standardized planning and scheduling processes leads to poor coordination across project teams, inaccurate field progress tracking, and ineffective risk management. Moreover, without standardized data, performance cannot be compared across projects and delivery teams cannot benefit from the predictive intel they need to identify problems early, while there is still time to avoid them.

These factors all contribute to deteriorating profitability, increased risk exposures, and operational deficiencies that impact how delivery organizations pursue, build, and deliver projects.
