Introduction: Shanghai Zhituo Software Co., Ltd. has built a personalized project management system for He ‘an Construction quickly and cheaply by using the platform of cloud pin low code application construction, which focuses on helping He ‘an Construction to solve business online scenarios and form a scenario-oriented digital solution for engineering project management.

“The architecture and implementation of the entire software module was more reasonably planned while insisting on no changes to the internal process,” reads a thank-you letter sent by the engineering firm to the project management digitization implementor. Anyone who has ever been involved in project management will realize that this is a powerful word of thanks.

Project management digital upgrade of the two major gateways

Project management has always been the lifeblood of engineering enterprises. Once an enterprise falls into the bottleneck of project management, its development will also fall into crisis. Engineering enterprises in traditional industries are trying to find solutions to improve project management efficiency in the digital wave.

However, there are two most urgent core demands of traditional engineering enterprises for digital transformation:

1. Smooth transition and high adaptability

This is because the business model of engineering projects is heavy, the management system is complex, and the project is always faced with the challenge of uncertainty. The changes brought by digital upgrading need to suit the personalized scenario of the enterprise, and it needs to be carried out in a more flexible way, so as to avoid the single point optimization harming the overall benefit of the project and creating new problems.

In the past, there is no lack of some engineering enterprises through access to some point-like efficiency software, management software, hoping to let the enterprise quickly switch into the digital management mode. For example, it concentrates and optimizes the local efficiency of the nodes of the project contract process, but it does not realize that the project management involves all aspects, which affects the whole body and impacts the inherent management mode of the enterprise itself.

Sometimes, when enterprises purchase ERP, BIM, OA and other different software, the data cannot be interlinked, which makes the management process more chaotic, causes systemic tremor, and lays down new management hidden dangers. So, the traditional engineering enterprise needs a more agile, and more recent joint enterprise own business flexibility digital solutions, help enterprises from extensive into fine management, let the data connectivity, make the project schedule, cost control, fund management, bidding, certificates and tax management subsystem cooperative coevolution, realize the whole optimization.

2, low cost landing

Strictly controlling the cost is the top priority in the daily management of engineering companies, and the digital upgrade plan faces the same test.

According to past experience, the digital solutions that need personalized customization are always costly and time-consuming to implement. For example, the customization project of traditional ERP software is usually based on the unit of year, and the customization cost is a huge sum of money. Low-cost customized personalized digital upgrade program, can only be an extravagant hope?

The author of the above letter of thanks — Shanghai He ‘an Architectural Decoration Engineering Co., Ltd., has now turned “extravagant hopes” into reality.

Five core advantages for the project management to reduce the burden

Headquartered in Shanghai and with branches in Malaysia and Hong Kong, He ‘an Architecture Co., Ltd. is a company specializing in office space, commercial space, chain industry and other fields to provide customers with integrated design and construction services from project planning, implementation to operation stage.

Shanghai Zhituo Software Co., Ltd. has built a personalized project management system for He ‘an Construction quickly and cheaply by using the platform of cloud pin low code application construction, which focuses on helping He ‘an Construction to solve online business scenarios and form a digital solution of scenario-oriented project management.

1. Full link improvement to achieve overall flexibility optimization

The system from the beginning of the project, to the project schedule, project contract, project materials, project costs, project construction, project completion of a full range of customization, a project involved in the life cycle can be very perfect control, truly achieve the enterprise project management of the whole cycle.

In addition to the personalized key modules, the system can not only maintain the basic data uniformly, but also establish the data base table, process the data logic, and integrate the basic data of the calculation report form. The system is also configured with an analysis module, which can summarize data display, generate project statements, enable data interconnection, and assist business personnel to conduct business analysis and financial management for the company’s projects.

In the implementation process, this holistic scheme does not change the internal process of He ‘an Building, so that enterprises can reduce the impact of digitization on enterprise management mode as far as possible and obtain the “harmless” power of digitization on project management when transforming the point-like improvement into a holistic scientific improvement.

2. High cost performance development to meet the needs of strict cost control

Based on the suitable match, Zhituo helped Hean to complete the customized project on-line in only one month, which reduced the on-line cycle by at least half compared with traditional ERP, and did not need IT operation and maintenance personnel, greatly reducing the labor cost and communication cost, and shortening the development cycle.

More importantly, the program itself is aimed at the core pain point of project management cost control problem, He ‘an construction suitable project items

The item management system realizes the control of key dimensions, such as material procurement, expense reimbursement, team/contractor, etc., interweaving the completion settlement, and the control can only be submitted by the project manager. It also tailor-made characteristic customized modules for enterprises, including construction log, milestone node, design schedule control related projects, and so on.

At the same time, the system matches the corresponding financial management module, all payment operations are controlled based on the latitude of the project, and payment can be associated with income and expenditure contracts. It supports the consolidation of multi-stage invoicing, payment application and batch payment and invoicing.

In addition, the contract management module allows each node to associate receivables and payables statements with subsequent financial modules for payment and receipt confirmation, so as to realize that payment is not lost, not repeated and traceable. From the digital upgrade plan itself to the implementation process of the plan, it conforms to the strict cost control demand of engineering project management and truly reduces the burden for the company.

3, versatility: non-IT personnel to participate in the creation, personal customization

DingDingYiguo provides a dragging way to build a management system, non-professional IT personnel can also participate in creating. In the process of system development, the business management of He ‘an Construction Company participated in the customization discussion of forms and report data logic, which was equivalent to personally customizing the digital upgrade plan more in line with the actual enterprise, which also made the system more convenient for employees to use after it was launched.

4. Compatibility: PC and mobile terminal can achieve one-touch project management

The suitable project management system of He ‘an Construction is completely based on platform construction, without any amount of code development, pure configuration is completed, easy to operate, efficient to use, and soon reaches the expectation of He ‘an Construction. The system is compatible with PC terminal and mobile terminal page display, configured in the nail bench, can touch the project management.

5. Growth: realize system stability and agile response to changes

Based on the low code capacity, the project management system of He ‘an Construction is more secure and stable, easier to maintain, and protects the cornerstone of the enterprise today. At the same time, the system has realized agile development, which can more nimbly respond to new demands in the future, and help He ‘an Construction efficiently seize development opportunities and obtain better growth.

Since the system was put into operation in January 2021, He ‘an Construction has efficiently solved a series of project management problems by using the system, improved the internal project management system of the enterprise, and realized the whole process of digital project management.
