Status

A single source of status information with automated reporting

As fast as you can write your project narrative, your project status report can be complete.  Predefined pieces of reporting eliminate repetitive actions.  If you update work in the system, it’s automatically updated in the status report.  You can add customized a summary/introduction to your status report, or run them as-is.  Automated reporting from The Project Network's™ central project management tool means no more consolidating information from different sources, documents, or software versions of programs.  The need to consult various project plans, Excel spreadsheets and other project management tools and then engage in ad-hoc consolidation is eliminated.  All this adds up to huge time savings and more accurate reporting.

Combined with the Programs functionality inherent in the software, the reporting tool allows you to develop status reports for single projects, rolled-up multiple projects and programs, or any combination of the above.

The Executive Dashboard rolls up all projects in a format providing easy visualization of issues and ability to drill down to the see the detailed problem.  Easily tracks where you are on your budget as well as hitting your milestones.  Company-defined graphic and color definitions along with configurable information layouts give the user just the information needed to make critical decisions.
