Financial Corporation

Atlantic Timesheet and Project Planning improves delivery service, resource utilisation and project management for a major UK insurance company.The primary objective was to bring cohesion between many disparate procedures and strands in order to ensure the on-going competitiveness of the company. The responsibility of organising and planning this process was tasked to the Corporate IT Division, assigned to develop a new business model. The model would then be rolled out to other parts of the enterprise.

 

Challenges

  • Inconsistent reporting and planning
  • Regular unforeseen roadblocks resulting in slippage of project plans
  • Time not being accurately recorded and reported
  • Skill shortages and mis-utilisation of resources
  • Unreliable and inefficient methods of securing people via networking and bartering

 

Solution

Atlantic Timesheet and Project Planning was implemented in a phased approach across 2100 seats. This staged implementation approach ensured that results were adopted at the earliest opportunity.
