Notice Information
Notice Title
Project plan optimisation tool
Notice Description
Scottish Hydro Electric Transmission Plc. (SHET) are seeking an optimisation, auditing and analysis tool for project plans. This will support our large capital project portfolio with data-driven insight and risk modelling on project plans, helping project managers identify, analyse and mitigate risks that could impact project schedules. Our programmes contain thousands of activities and relationships, which change with some regularity and the current methods of analysis are inefficient, time consuming and prone to error due to the manual effort involved. Areas such as schedule risk, mitigation, delay analysis, forecast and schedule changes are difficult to show visually and present in an easily understandable format. Data driven insights from this software tool will enable project and programme managers to make informed proactive decisions with regards project structure and scheduling to prevent/mitigate risks spanning near to long term.

Data driven insights from this software tool will enable project and programme managers to make informed proactive decisions with regards project structure and scheduling to prevent/mitigate risks spanning near to long term. The key capabilities required for this tool are as follows: Provide an easy-to-use interactive solution Data upload capability for project plans (Excel, MS Project, P6) Project Schedule Reviews: Identify critical paths, activity changes, delays, current vulnerabilities, potential future challenges and associated next actions Task Automation: Automate current manual tasks performed by our schedulers and Project Managers Risk Modelling: Assess and identify potential risk areas and provide associated mitigation actions. Resource Tracking: How, where and when resources are being utilised Reporting and Analytics: Provide visually rich configurable reporting dashboards with data filtering options. Present both project and portfolio views in a visual, compelling and shareable way. Predictive Insights: Identify trends and provide forecasts using both predictive algorithms and historical data. Optionally it is desirable for the solution to have the capability to integrate and receive data directly from Oracle P6 and Microsoft Project (SAAS).
