Unwelcome Surprises
Annoying Side Effects of Every Project
Time savings from preventable mistakes
On average, 27% of the time spent on project management is wasted on dealing with preventable surprises.
Non-value-adding activities
Unclear responsibilities, oversights, glitches: wasted time consumes valuable resources.
Reduction in project costs
Around 1.5% of the project costs can be saved with a forward looking planning effort, according to a study by a large international biotech company.
Annoying Surprises Bind Resources
In every project problems have to be solved continually. This would not be necessary, if forward looking project management had occurred in the first place. This results in extra costs and annoying delays, ties up resources and energy, and reduces efficiency.
AppEx helps you “plan the plan” and schedule activities. By asking specific questions at the right time AppEx sets you on course for efficient and coordinated project management in your projects.
Project Risk “Learning from Mistakes”, Again and Again and always from Scratch!
Amazing, that preventable mistakes, misunderstandings, errors and omissions are accepted as an unavoidable part of doing business which leads to change orders, rework or insurance claims.
AppEx counters this vicious trend by applying past experiences to identify risks and potential problems in advance and keep them from occurring.
Design Omissions Increase Project Risks
In the design and construction industry urgent problems need to be resolved every day. As a result, there isn’t enough time to plan, and proactively manage and control the project. Important questions get overlooked or they remain unanswered. Preventable mistakes are the result.
AppEx provides you with a powerful tool to manage your knowledge and expertise and apply it to your projects successfully.
