- 8. Mobility Envision supports the use of smartphone’s and tablet devices for viewing and collecting field data. Using these devices with Envision allows the realtime collection of field data relating to progress, events and time tracking. Engineering Innovation.
- 9. Weekly Work Plan 6 week look ahead Should Do Master Schedule Master schedule updated with actuals from Envision Can Do Weekly work plan is a commitment from the team on what they will do. % of Plan Completed is tracked. Will Do Work that should be done that isn’t ready is identified constraints removed and made ready for release to weekly work plan Work completed each week is used for evidence based planning in future weekly work plans BLOCKED work in progress that needs to be resolved to be completed Engineering Innovation.
- 10. Event Management Envision allows field personnel to log events of any type directly from a smartphone. Field personnel can capture information such as photographs, videos, voice recordings and text comments using the Envision smartphone app. Envision provides the ability to create documents from configurable templates, such as delay notices, inspection requests, non-conformance reports or any other contractual documents. These documents are tracked to ensure they are closed within contractual time periods. Engineering Innovation.
- 11. Project Log The project log provides a social and engaging log of all project activity in real-time. From the data collected in Envision (Activity / Event Status, Time Tracked, Comments and Photo’s) a daily log report provides full visibility of daily site progress. Engineering Innovation.
- 12. Time Tracking Envision makes capturing time simple and fast. Time can be tracked against Activities or Events. Using the GoodData Business Intelligence platform with Envision provides powerful productivity analysis. Consolidated time can be exported to enterprise systems for cost accounting and invoicing. Engineering Innovation.
- 13. Business Intelligence Reporting Envision the GoodData Business Intelligence platform to provide the ability for project administrators to build completely customised reports on demand. Dashboard reports provide big visible indicators to the team about project health and status. Engineering Innovation.
- 14. Benefits Envision provides a significant opportunity for financial savings and reducing project risks.
