The Project

A large engineering consulting firm manages various client projects for residential, commercial, industrial, and municipal clients across New England. The firm was experiencing inefficiencies in managing its project data, and they needed an intranet solution.

“I found everyone who worked for Aciron to be attentive and thoughtful, providing not only a sounding board for our ideas but also helpful guidance from previous project experience. While developing a web-based project management system, Aciron created something that was tailored to our specific needs with an easy-to-use interface. In short, I have found our experience with Aciron to be very positive. I am impressed with the work Aciron has done, as well as their professionalism, courtesy, and caring customer service.” – Senior Project Manager

Our Approach

Aciron validated the business and technical requirements for the system by conducting user interviews and discussing the firm’s needs. The team then prepared story-board screen mock-ups to help the client visualize the system. This process helped the client define the critical project needs. Aciron developed the application on a phase-by-phase basis to ensure that the project management teams could immediately use the system. Aciron provided regular status reports, design reviews, and consistent contact with the client to incorporate new changes. This enabled us to meet the client’s needs on time and within budget.

The Solution

Aciron created an intranet solution for the firm. The custom browser-based, database-driven system provided a centralized location for the client. The application allows the teams to:

-Manage projects in accordance with their project management style

-Manage tasks, deadlines, and assignments more efficiently

-Track the progress of projects and quickly generate comprehensive status reports

-Assign tasks to fellow team members and track tasks’ progress

-Provide and receive updates on any given project

-Manage client information, including billing information

-Track issues that arise during projects
