Oracle’s Primavera Project Delivery Management is a powerful, easy-to-use solution for managing collaboration and communication across projects. It provides configurable business workflow to capture and record all aspects of documentation required during project execution. While it comes out of the box with common processes such as requests for information (RFIs), daily progress reports, meetings, and submittals for rapid deployment, it is highly configurable to each unique customer requirement.
Document Management
The ability to access the most-current documents and designs by all project team members is critical to driving efficiency and reducing errors. Primavera Project Delivery Management’s powerful Document Manager module ensures that everyone is always working on the most current versions, for storage of attachments, file control access, e-mail alerts, and version control. Document Manager includes check-in/check-out, fully configurable attributes, and commenting/redline capabilities using Oracle’s AutoVue enterprise visualization solutions. Users can also launch any Unifier business process form and automatically attach documents from within Document Manager. Referenced records can be viewed in a graphical reference map, providing a simple understanding of the relationships between documents and business process records.
Communication and Collaboration
RFIs, daily progress reports, meetings, and submittals are the fabric that binds a project together. The ability to quickly record, access, and review these elements often determines the successful outcome of a project. With Primavera Project Delivery Management, everything about your project is stored in a single, secure place enabling visibility into any potential issues or delays via workflows and alerts. Unifier’s Web-based architecture allows internal and external users to access the information they need. Users can complete reviews and approvals of information directly from e-mail without the need to log in to the system. Documents can also be e-mailed to the system through a dedicated e-mail address.
Best Practices
Primavera Project Delivery Management uses common business practices such as RFIs right out of the box. Team members see exactly what they need to see when they need to see it. This not only allows for standardization of processes across the organization but also speeds adoption and lowers response times.
Dozens of standard business processes are available and preconfigured. This allows for quick implementation or a starting point to further configure to your specific requirements. The preconfigured collaborative project delivery processes are complementary to the Primavera Cost Controls solution, providing a rich project execution platform for all project phases.
Control and Compliance
Keep informed whenever a team member adds a document or makes a change. Primavera Project Delivery Management provides easy traceability from attachments and documents back to their originating business process. Set alerts to notify users when certain thresholds are met. Use the preconfigured reports in the Primavera Unifier User-Defined Reports module, or create your own reports in minutes with minimal training.
