Manage projects integrated with your ERP system
Project driven organizations spend too much time translating, consolidating and validating data from the myriad of point solutions they employ to manage their project operations. With Adeaca PBA your project operations control is seamless with your ERP solution.
Integrated project planning
Companies where the successful delivery of projects is critical, it is crucial to be able to accurately plan those engagements while managing resources, subcontractors, risks, deadlines and related supply chain activities. A lack of real-time insight into your delivery operations will invariably result in increased risk and decreased profitability.
Adeaca PBA offers a unique and fundamentally different approach to managing project operations. Featuring a sophisticated planning engine, you need no longer rely on external project scheduling applications and can enjoy complete integration between backend ERP functions and your operational project management activities.
The project plan is the central entity against which a host of other operational activities are planned and managed such as: issue & deadline tracking, risks evaluation, staffing, capacity leveling and procurement/production schedules.
Standardize processes and enforce best practices
Key to operational excellence is scalable and predictable business processes. Unless you’re able to manage the process of getting from A to B you cannot accurately measure or appropriately react to the process output. In Adeaca PBA, all critical project operational business processes are executed within a single solution with built-in process and audit control. This enables companies to control process flows throughout the enterprise thereby establishing an enforceable and repeatable business model yielding reliable and actionable KPIs.

Project Business Automation Means Truly Integrated Processes
The all-encompassing architecture of Adeaca Project Business Automation™ means that information flow freely and instantly between inter-dependent processes. For example, changes to the project schedule will automatically filter through to the payment plan, procurement activities, capacity profiles, Estimate at Completion (EAC) and cashflow projections.
Automation and visibility
This provides a degree of automation and visibility which is critical in today’s real-time economy but rarely achieved with mainstream solutions.
Adeaca PBAâ„¢ Operational Project Management: Capabilities
Project schedules
Featuring a sophisticated Work Breakdown Structure (WBS), Adeaca PBA manages and streamlines every aspect of your project schedule. Projects can be scheduled with or without capacity constraints (leveling or infinite) and project capacity plans may be based on detailed individual resource assignments or aggregated job function assignments (represented by roles). Likewise, machinery, tools, and equipment can be capacity managed at a detailed or aggregated level.
Projects are scheduled individually or in prioritized batch lists. The rich Gantt chart combined with traffic light sensor points provide instant insight into project plans and potential problems.
Risks, issues, and deadlines
Manage milestones and deadlines to ensure timely delivery and early notification when project plans slide. The issue management system combined with periodic milestone gateway reviews facilitates organized recording of project risks. Linkages between payment plans and supply chain activities to the WBS enable companies to align billing schedules and logistics with project plans and actual progress.
Staffing
Resources may be assigned to project work directly in the WBS (project manager) or via the resource dispatch board (resource managers). The resource dispatch board provides an easy overview of urgent resource requirements and allows resource managers the freedom to decide which and how many resources to assign based on availability and required skillsets while still maintaining the integrity of the project schedule as defined by the project planner.
With Adeaca PBA™ you can segregate resources and projects into resource departments and configure loan rules to determine which departments may utilize resources from other departments or legal entities.
The loan management dashboard provides resource managers an instant overview of active and pending loan requests as well as loan change requests. At times of resourcing, you can determine if the resource list should include inter-company and inter-department resources or not. When assigning loaned resources, capacity reservations and assignment notifications flow seamlessly between departments and legal entities.
In addition, the self-staffing framework enables project managers to publish unstaffed project work which can then be viewed and requested by individual resources.
