Project Management Platform

Overview

In the domain of construction project management, optimizing the planning, management, and supervision processes is essential to ensuring timely and cost-effective project completion. The Project Management Platform introduced by Lektik is an innovative solution that utilizes advanced scheduling, resource management, and real-time progress tracking technologies. By integrating fully featured schedulers, Gantt charts, and task allocation modules, this platform significantly improves project oversight and operational efficiency. 

Business Context

The construction industry encounters the ongoing challenge of managing complex projects involving multiple tasks, resources, and timelines. Traditional project management methods often struggle to handle the intricate dependencies and dynamic nature of construction projects, leading to delays, resource misallocation, and increased costs. The solution addresses these challenges by providing a comprehensive project management platform that integrates advanced scheduling tools, real-time progress tracking, and resource management capabilities. This not only enhances project visibility but also ensures efficient resource utilization and timely project completion. 

Key Features

• Robust Scheduler: The platform includes a robust scheduler designed for planning, managing, and supervising construction projects. This scheduler allows project managers to create detailed project timelines, allocate tasks, and set deadlines, ensuring a structured approach to project management.  
• Gantt Charts for Progress Tracking: Using data from Kanban boards, the platform provides Gantt charts that offer a user-friendly dashboard for overseeing project progress. These charts visually represent the project’s timeline, task dependencies, and completion status, enabling managers to quickly identify bottlenecks and adjust plans accordingly.  
• Task Scheduler: A dedicated task scheduler allows project managers to allocate specific times for each task within a project. This feature ensures systematic planning and tracking of all tasks, reducing the likelihood of delays and ensuring that project milestones are met.  
• Resource Allocation and Management: The platform includes a module for allocating resources and managing their consumption. This module computes the required materials for each task, ensuring efficient resource utilization and availability. Project managers can monitor resource usage and adjust to avoid wastage and shortages.  
• Scheduled Updates with Justifications: Users and project managers can update the project schedule with reasons for changes, such as reduced time allotted for a task or unforeseen delays. This feature ensures transparency and provides a clear record of all modifications, helping stakeholders understand the project’s status and reasons for deviations from the original plan. 

Solution Components

• Advanced Scheduling Tools: Utilizing AngularJS and PrimeNG, the platform offers advanced scheduling tools for detailed project planning and task allocation. These tools are designed to be user-friendly and highly interactive, facilitating effective project management.  
• Real-Time Progress Tracking: The integration of Gantt charts allows for real-time progress tracking, providing project managers with a clear and up-to-date view of the project’s status. This component is built using Web Components, ensuring a seamless and responsive user experience. 
• Resource Management Module: Built with RxJava, the resource management module offers robust capabilities for computing and monitoring resource usage, optimizing resource allocation throughout the project lifecycle.  
• Interactive Dashboard: The platform features an interactive dashboard that consolidates all project data, providing a comprehensive overview of tasks, timelines, and resources. This dashboard enhances decision-making and project oversight, ensuring that managers have all the information they need at their fingertips.
