The challenge

  • Project data and documents scattered between separate systems and paper files
  • Slow sample submissions and approvals; long inter-department approval cycles
  • Hard to track project schedule, penalties, and payment certificates
  • No accredited electronic signature preserving the official decision chain
  • No access distinction between shared general files and project-specific files

The solution

  • A central registry for project data, contractors, and documents with a complete lifecycle
  • A submissions and approvals module with multi-level approval routing
  • Status tracking for payment certificates, payments, and penalties with automatic alerts
  • An interactive Gantt chart and schedule for visual project tracking
  • A general document library plus a private library per project with granular permissions
  • Approval requests with electronic endorsement and an official electronic signature
