Project Management Technology:
In order to maintain accurate project budgeting and scheduling, SCE utilizes Deltek financial management software as our internal project management software. All projects are created, monitored and controlled using this software which affords a wide range of management tools to all levels of project staff. Aspects of the Deltek system include initial project creation using proposal information, project work breakdown structure development including resource assignments, actual staff assignments, budget creation, scheduling and invoicing. Project staff of all levels enter and track their time against the several contracts established for each phase of the project, with instant alerts to the Principal and Project Manager upon certain pre-established milestones in the project schedule. Reports are produced and updated daily/weekly/monthly allowing Managers to know exactly where the project completion is relative to the planned project budget and schedule. This immediate tracking enables the Manager to adjust resources if necessary and notify Client instantaneously, to ensure timely completion. With the use of Deltek, SCE projects run smoothly from start to finish and all staff members are fully aware of their individual project responsibilities and corresponding budgets to complete designated tasks.
