Carpédia has worked with numerous companies that are project management based, such as software engineering, construction, consulting and building design.  We work with the management of these companies to improve on-time delivery by re-thinking how projects are scheduled and how critical resource constraints are managed. We help develop appropriate work scheduling parameters and earned value measurement tools to link the project management world with the company’s financial systems. We also work directly with line management to improve work assignment, follow up, variance identification and problem solving. We review how management time is expended to try to increase productive time by reducing unnecessary administration, status-based information distribution, and ineffective meeting time.

Some of the specific areas where we work include:

• Sales and marketing
• Program management
• Engineering or software design
• Testing
• Procurement
• Installation and service
• Finance and accounting
