WorkPool Features
Project Management
Do you spend more time on project administration (such as updating project plans, generating reports, follow-ups, feedback meetings, etc.) than on project management? Then you are probably using a project planning tool rather than a project management tool! Appoint WorkPool as your personal project assistant and replace time spent on administration and unnecessary meetings with productive, billable time.
WorkPool brings your project plan to life by creating a live project environment where all participating parties can interact and contribute to the project’s success through an intuitive graphical interface. Whether you are a professional project manager or not, your business can still derive the benefits of applying these project management principles in your business processes.
- Project information is available, live, from any computer 24hrs a day, 7 days a week.
- Track tasks/deliverables in real time and monitor their influence on milestones or delivery dates. Assess the impact and manage scope creep or overdue deliverables and take action to compensate for these changes and still deliver on time.
- Do real-time resource management and view tasks currently in progress. With WorkPool you have no need to ask anyone “what is happening?” or “have you done it?”.
- Manage an unlimited number of resources and an unlimited number of teams/projects simultaneously. Factor in and manage external dependencies on contractors or service providers (e.g. vendors, consultants, programmer, etc.).
- Allow resources to log time and expenses on a single system in order to extract management reports on estimated (or budgeted) vs. actual times per project or deliverable. Draw reports in real time to present management, or the project sponsor, with an accurate account of progress.
- Compare the workload, performance and efficiency of resources, contractors, or teams.
- View a graphical representation of a deliverable’s predecessors and/or dependencies.
- Capture all inter-project communication between resources and/or the client or project sponsor.
- Allow resources to escalate items to your attention when a problem occurs, rather than wait until the next meeting, to prevent a situation from deteriorating.
- Capture all actions and processes in your business to document and retain intellectual property. Access a complete, documented history of any deliverable.
- Use WorkPool as a knowledge management tool and deliver a complete knowledge base to the client of the project plan, its execution and all relevant documentation or procedures.
- Allow clients to submit requests or bug reports via email and import them automatically into the system. WorkPool will issue each request with a unique reference number for clients to track progress.
