“If you can't measure it, you can't control it.”

Securing your project aims is the top priority across all project phases. To achieve this aim, the project requires permanent management, or project controlling.
Effective project controlling...

• makes the project process and project status more transparent.
• enables an early warning system to be installed.
• makes it possible to carry out a permanent performance evaluation.
• enables deviations from the plan to be identified early and allows suitable controlling measures to be introduced.
• regulates reporting and project documentation for everything.
• improves cooperation within the project team.
• promotes project communication.

Implementation is carried out while closely observing the controlling cycle to ensure the quality (Q), extent (E), cost (C) and schedule (S) of a project. The cycle refers to the iterative recurrence of always similar tasks.

For each of the dimensions of deadline, costs, scope and quality the actual data must be collected continuously. In practical terms, there are many different methods available for this which are evaluated and chosen by our experts according to your company’s circumstances.

A comprehensive overview of the status of the project can be gained using methods such as earned value analysis, which is one of the requirements that have to be met by suppliers processing complex projects for the US Department of Defense (DoD), for example.

The CoE project management is a strong key player for individual, integrated project controlling methods. We support these methods using continuous process definitions and our own software development. We create, for example, optimal solutions for our clients to enable projects to be monitored in a transparent manner.
