Project Control
Identify deviations and take corrective action
Effective project control is essential to the success of a project. Our goal is – put simply – to align the actual values of the ongoing project with the target values defined in the project plan.
► If reality in day-to-day project work were that simple...
... we could probably execute entire investment projects at the push of a button. While modern project management software helps us manage the complexity of many initiatives more effectively, it does not replace personal communication, decision-making, and responsibility.
Our specialist engineers are happy to take on responsibility as project managers to successfully implement previously developed solutions. Where required, we also involve an independent project control expert.
► Fields of application – this is where our project managers provide support:
Whether a project manager should take control of a project on a part-time or full-time basis depends primarily on the complexity and size of the undertaking. LogistikPlan particularly recommends deployment for larger projects, for example:
- the construction of a new factory building (from approx. €1 million investment)
- the establishment of a logistics center (from approx. €2 million investment)
- the conversion or relocation of operating sites during ongoing operations (from approx. 200 employees)
- the tendering of logistics services (from approx. €4 million costs per year)
- the awarding of facility management services (from approx. €5 million costs per year).
