Overview
ADVISOR Project Management module provides a step by step approach for planning a project and tracking progress in real time. This includes the setup of phases and tasks, dependencies and constraints, timelines as well as the assignment of personnel and resources needed to complete. Moreover, ADVISOR tracks progress by comparing hours worked and money spent on each task to project plan, to anticipate delays, facilitate the implementation of corrective measures, and keep projects on-time and within budget.
