Maintaining an overview in complex EC&O projects

Projects in the Engineering, Construction and Operations sector are becoming more complex due to global collaboration, supply bottlenecks, and tight budgets. Added to this are specific requirements for digitisation, time recording, and e-invoicing.

Which software is suitable for complex projects?

In the course of digitisation, many companies have purchased special tools in recent years. This is because requirements have increased over time, and purchasing these tools online is quite easy and inexpensive. In addition, each special tool is easy to use on its own.

However, this “best of breed” approach is technically challenging because interfaces are required. This is because data from a special tool, such as time tracking, must be transferred correctly to the others for analyses or invoices. This can be done automatically using interface software. Alternatively, your employees must manually copy the data from one tool and paste it into another, which increases the administrative effort.

MARIProject for SAP Business One combines key project functions, from project costing to system maintenance, in a single solution, following the “best of suite” approach. The solution cannot be purchased and installed with just a few clicks, as it is customised to the processes in your company. Nevertheless, MARIProject is cost-effective because it significantly reduces the administrative effort involved in project processing and provides you with analyses containing up-to-date data at the touch of a button. This allows you to maintain an overview and have a solid database for your decisions.
