The Many Wonderful Perks of Using the Primavera Unifier

 

Each and every construction project on earth basically begins from conception till commissioning, and in real terms it also starts from fund management way up to monitoring and closure. And of course, every project cycle also involves a lot of processes, data, drawings, approval and documents which are mostly managed by manual processes, or through the usual software like MS Word, Excel etc. Sadly, this results in a lot of delay and disorganized management. So, to streamline all the processes, project management experts recommend that you use Oracle’s Primavera Unifier. But before we talk about the Primavera Unifier cost, let’s first talk about the many wonderful perks of using it.

 

It Provides a Paper-Less Project Lifecycle

According to veteran project managers, the common pain areas for which the construction industry needs to solve, or get digitized, include the lack of integrated data, manual processes, the lack of end-to-end project visibility, the lack of a centralized data folder structure, manual approval processes, the lack of a project dashboard with updated project statuses and manual invoicing and BOQ.

 

But, with the Primavera Unifier, projects can now be able to achieve a truly paper-less (or much less use of paper) project lifecycle which includes digital solutions from concept to commissioning.

 

The software is hailed as the most configurable platform for managing project portfolios, controlling expenses and facilitating collaboration and communications across the whole project team.

 

The software also enables project managers and owners to enhance efficiency and transparency, limit risks and improve decision-making across their project management teams.

 

Mobility & Easy Approval Through Email

Before you start whining about the Primavera Unifier cost, which I think should be not a stumbling block to you using it (because the cost is actually so affordable in terms of the benefits that you get), let’s continue with discussing another perk of using it, which is mobility and easy approval through email.

 

The Oracle Primavera Unifier does have the capability of accessing, initiating and approving the various processes through mobile apps (iOS/Android). One can also easily approve or reject any process directly through Outlook or Email Exchange.

 

An Easily Configured Dashboard

The oracle Primavera also provides a truly interactive dashboard functionality which takes the record data of all processes from the Unifier Database. It can also provide a single stop project dashboard which will provide the reports from all the departments who are using the Unifier.

 

Automatic Project Updates

The Oracle Primavera and P6 EPPM also comes with standard integration so that anyone can review the project progress in Unifier without opening the P6 EPPM. In case the drawing approval is being processed in Unifier, then the activity will be marked as complete once the process is approved in Unifier, which helps save dual effort to update the Primavera Progress.

 

The software also provides a feature to do complete drawing/document approval through the browser itself, which saves a lot of printing and drawing revision manual cycles. The software’s Markup functionality also enables the complete digital drawing approval without the need to install native drawing files like .dwg. You can even easily place comments there over the drawing in the browser itself!

 

So, with all these benefits, I guess you will now agree that the Primavera Unifier cost is truly worth it!
