Project Controls

A key component of a project controls system is the generation and management of critical information necessary for decision making. The information tells the project team where it is, how to use it, the project implementation plan and where it is going, enabling the team to be pro-active not reactive, in dealing with project issues. Throughout the project life cycle information such as drawings, estimates, change orders, schedules, cost reports, and project status updates are exchanges and updates frequently among team members and the owner. The information will come in many forms and in possession of many team members will make decision making a challenge.

Effective project controls involve establishing a systematic, integrated approach to organize the project information as it is generated. Trimble’s Project Control Management Systems provide a complete system for managing project information from the field to the back office.
