Energy context
Why Project Management works differently in Energy
In Energy, energy operations center on sector-specific concepts such as asset/equipment management, field maintenance, predictive maintenance. In energy, asset reliability, field maintenance and the compliance burden require functions to evaluate equipment history and live field data together.
Qera ERP's Project Management module is set up around how the energy sector works: Tracks investment and maintenance projects together with budget, progress and cost.
- When the maintenance schedule of field equipment and assets isn't tracked, unplanned downtime and breakdowns increase.
- When investment/plant projects aren't tracked alongside budget and progress payments, cost overruns are noticed too late.
- When data from field devices is disconnected from the system, live status and performance can't be seen.
Capabilities
How Qera Project Management works in Energy
The core capabilities of the Project Management module, described for the asset, equipment and field needs of the energy sector.
Project card and address management
Define each project with name, budget, duration, customer and responsible team; record multiple site addresses, warehouses and operation centers.
Task and activity management
Break the project into manageable tasks and assign owners and dates; log meetings, site visits and correspondence as activities on the timeline.
Document management
Store contracts, technical drawings, permits and reports within the module, so everyone on the project works from the same documents.
Project-based cost tracking
Materials, salaries and machine rentals from procurement, inventory and HR are posted automatically to projects; compare actual cost with budget.
Progress-payment and contract management
Record progress-payment and payment contracts made with customers; manage cash flow by tracking progress payments and payment processes.
Project reports
Report completed, ongoing and pending projects with their budget, cost and profitability status; measure task and team performance.
