Introducing Orchestrate
Introducing a project portfolio management solution crafted by industry experts, featuring patented orchestration technology designed to streamline processes and provide a single source of truth for your projects, programmes, and organisation.
The increased demand for transparency from investors, the greater need for standardised and efficient project management processes due to labour pressures and the desire to leverage historical data to predict performance have been some of the factors that have boosted the demand for project, programme or portfolio management offices (PMOs). Specifically, there is a growing need for modernised, digitally enabled and agile PMOs.
At Gleeds, we are committed to protecting our client’s interests by leveraging the latest advancements in technology to augment our project management delivery. We have integrated state-of-the-art data orchestration technology, replacing outdated practices that relied on multiple, conflicting sources which often led to confusion and uncertainty. This innovation enhances PMO methodologies and empowers teams to operate more efficiently, swiftly, and intelligently, conserving both time and resources.
Implementing Orchestrate promotes greater transparency and efficiency, fostering a collaborative atmosphere essential for addressing the diverse demands and challenges of modern project management.
Nearly half of our survey respondents said that more than three-quarters of their projects from the last five years experienced disputes or claims during the contract works. The primary drivers behind these issues were identified as ambitious project programmes, contract changes and inadequate tender or contractual documentation.
While over 60% of respondents observed a reduction in construction disputes due to the adoption of standardised contract forms, many comments highlighted ongoing challenges. These challenges include the varying levels of experience among those administering contracts, issues with accurate information recording and a tendency towards an adversarial approach.
Orchestrate can address these challenges by promoting collaboration, ensuring clarity, focusing on the delivery of outcomes and supporting data collection to optimise performance.
