Project success in Government & Infrastructure

With 35 offices worldwide, Aconex is the largest global provider of online project collaboration and project management solutions for Government & Infrastructure projects.

Compressed timelines, multiple stakeholders, joint-ventures, and the public nature of these works can contribute to a high-visibility, high-pressure environment. There is an understandable expectation that funds will be dispersed efficiently, managed transparently, and that projects will be delivered on time and within budget.

Effective collaboration between participants is at the core of project success. Good practice information management underpins effective collaboration and can help address some of the key challenges you face. For example, how can you:

• ensure a single point of reference, accountability & data capture?
• control document distribution and revision?
• manage formal project correspondence between teams?
• implement processes and manage approvals?

Aconex was designed around the needs of construction and infrastructure work. It standardizes document management, approvals, bid and tender management, and correspondence management across the entire project.

Team members have real-time access to documents and project mail and can transmit files to other participants with a click. Documents are secureley and centrally stored, but selectively distributed. As all project participants use the same tools, information is captured  efficiently and flows quickly. Agreed processes are adhered to and workflows operate across organizations as smoothly as they would within individual organizations.

For the government agency or funding entity, Aconex provides efficient access to information during and at the end of the project, and visibility of progress along the way.

For the contractor, greater efficiency and control shorten review cycles, and give visibility of outstanding and overdue items. Easily-generated reports faciltate internal control and client updates.
