In these challenging times, many organizations are faced with huge pressure to deliver change and improve business performance in order to survive.  These change or transformation programs are managed via a series of projects designed to achieve certain goals be they cost reduction, new product, increased productivity or process improvement. An online project management software tool can benefit most organizations that can be faced with challenges such as project selection, project team collaboration, task management, resource planning, project milestones and project timesheet tracking.

A major obstacle in rolling out projects across teams or departments is collaboration and communication as project team members are often based at different locations and the natural communication channels allowed by being in the same room or building can’t be tapped into.  This is where online project management can make the working life of the project team less stressful and more productive.

The main benefit of online project management software is to give all members of the project team full visibility of information and actions relating to project status, assigned tasks, risks, issues, and resource or time planning.

Some organizations consider a project management system or tool as a stack of overflowing files, multiple excel sheets, unopened emails and post-it notes.  A project management solution such as this only hampers a project and case studies prove that most project teams will end up in the situation where tasks get missed or simply forgotten, milestones ignored and ownership has lapsed to the point where the project lurches into the “started but never completed” label.

The Project Management team needs a more organized solution rather than some project methodologies or an email and file sharing system. By having an online project management system in place there will be no more exchanging of emails with excel and word attachments or project managers chasing up project team members for updates, as all concerned will have access to the same information from one central interface.  This in turn will ensure that the organization is working on one project plan, even if departments and individuals aren’t positioned in the same building or even the same country.  Project productivity is boosted as any project team member can access their personalized project dashboard from work, home and the airport, the list is endless.

Projects plans can change from one day to the next and this can have significant implications on the management of that project, as the necessary users of that project may not have an updated version of the plan. By having an online system any changes are made once and from there all involved parties can be updated and view all project information in real time. Visibility is essential to the successful management of projects and an online system achieves one unified version of any project.

Online project management software gives users huge flexibility and enables them to complete tasks, projects and programs to a high standard.  This flexibility will have a positive knock on effect on the time and budget management of the projects as less time and money will be wasted updating and transmitting emails and files to project team members.

Time spent by the project leaders interacting with all project team members and reviewing project plan status will be maximized and in a more collaborative way. No more will the project managers have to spend vast amounts of time chasing up project team members for project updates.  Utilizing an online project management solution ensures that an organization gets completed projects, on time and on budget.

Gone are the phone and email conversation around the management of a projects, gone are the excel sheets that require updating regularly.  Project managers will have their time dedicated only to the management of projects and not the administration associated with projects.

Another key benefit of using project management software online is an increase in project output as all project information is held at one point.  The necessary tasks for a project manager such as making updates, analyzing reports can all be done via a single interface, available online 24/7. The project information can also be easily accessed by senior management or stakeholders.  Online project management unifies the project team, tasks, KPI’s and project goals, ensuring that all project team members have a 100% understanding and eliminates project ambiguity.

For the most part, project management ensures that a project team’s time is spent on the tasks and actions that get results and move the project forward for the good of the company.  Team work is optimized as project members are able to work together effectively, even if they are situated in different locations.  To be successful an organization needs to have in place an effective system to manage all the elements associated with a project or program.  That system should be online.

Overall, project management software will bring measurable financial returns and deliver clear outcomes across projects, programs and risk management to an organization, with its ease of use and flexibility.  Lastly, project team members will have online and instant access to all the information needed to complete their assigned tasks, making collaboration easier and increasing the project teams success.

Minister of State with responsibility for public and commuter transport, Alan Kelly TD launched Ruraltravel.ie in the Sligo Park Hotel, Sligo and Cora Systems’ staff were there in our capacity of system designers and developers.

Ruraltravel.ie is an innovative online facility linking up consumers with rural transport services in the Sligo-Leitrim area. Cora Systems developed both the administration functionality used by the Rural Travel administrators and the front end website which allows passengers to find and book onto suitable routes. The system has innovative GIS capability that allows appropriate services to be found near a passenger and provides turn-by-turn routing directions for transport drivers.

Minister Kelly said: “The proposal from Sligo-Leitrim to develop this new service is a perfect example of what my Department’s Smarter Travel Demonstration Project Fund set out to achieve. This project will develop synergies between rural transport planning and delivery and the end-customer. It’s a great example of smarter thinking to deliver smarter travel. The delivery of an efficient, accessible, flexible transport services to connect passengers with local villages and towns has already made a difference through this wonderful project”

Ms. Camilla Smyth, Co-ordinator of the Sligo-Leitrim Smarter Travel Project said: “The interactive map and timetable on ruraltravel.ie uses real time information which passengers can use to plan their journey from home to their local village or town with the option of connecting with mainstream Bus Eireann and Irish Rail services for onward journeys. In recent times, we have witnessed a significant increase in passengers using our services so this new online service, together with our Twitter and Facebook pages should bring ruraltravel.ie to an even wider audience.”
