WHAT DOES PIMS OFFER?
· 24/7 Access to the project progress via the web.
· Automated email alerts when tasks have been updated and/or completed.
· Ability to download and/or view project letters, quotes, drawings and photos.
· Ability to leave text messages for your Project Manager and clients.
· Access to project information for an unlimited number of client personnel.
· Ability to access and update PIMS whilst on site using a handheld PDA.
· Cost and time savings through the efficient dissemination of information.

HOW DOES PIMS WORK?
Customers are given a user name and password to enter PIMS from the Electron website. They are then able to view the different tasks to be undertaken along with the progress of each task to date, any notes attached and any documents. Bulletin Board is available on the project in order to pass notes to and from our Project Manager. Depending on access rights, customers can also view Microsoft Office files that have been uploaded to the project. These could be project letters, original quotations, etc., along with photographs, where necessary.

A time saving feature is that customers can ‘tick’ a box to enable e-mail alerts for project changes. Once this is selected, the customer will automatically get an e-mail every night where a task on the project has changed status, (e.g. cabling 1st floor has increased from 10% to 20% complete).

A 3rd Party can (if requested) also have limited access so that they can view the progress of all the tasks, without access to ‘sensitive or commercial’ information.

WHY DO I NEED PIMS?
By using the e-mail alert facility the user/client is continually kept informed of project progress, without any manual intervention, and is never faced with having to say “I don’t know” when asked about the current status of a project. As a result, a client’s Project Team is able to manage projects in a more prompt, effective and time saving manner. Furthermore decision makers and salespersons (for example) who would not necessarily want to monitor the project all the way through can, at any time, see how a particular project is progressing.

HOW MUCH DOES PIMS COST?
For projects with a value in excess of £10,000 PIMS is used by our Project Team and offered to our customers FREE OF CHARGE.
