Project Management System for the Shipbuilding Industry
The shipbuilding industry is a unique sector with specific requirements. To achieve its project goals, it must bring together many different areas.
To facilitate these tasks, we have created Flowgres, a project management platform dedicated to shipbuilding and design. It enables the management of design documentation and designers’ activities, and supports production management processes. Flowgres is an intuitive tool that ensures clear communication, integration with external systems, and data security.
Among the many advantages of the Flowgres system are:
1. Project Review and Reporting
Managing multiple projects can be a challenge. Flowgres allows each user to create their own dashboard widget layout for an instant overview of:
- current project statistics,
- evaluation of task completion,
- the latest changes to tasks and communication,
- tasks currently being performed,
- the project's firing process,
- a "ticket" system (help desk) and much more.
2. Managing the project workflow
The Flowgres platform is one of the few management systems that supports task revisions, a feature that is essential in the shipbuilding industry and ship design.
- Customizable document workflow within a project,
- Revision tasks – revisions of documents with a history of releases and changes,
- Organizing project files,
- System notifications.
3. Budget Management
The Flowgres platform supports the budget management process from the planning stage through to project completion.
- There are many budgets in the project,
- Allocation of tasks to budgets,
- Customizable budget statuses,
- A customizable system for tracking budget execution.
4. Effective Planning and Oversight
- Easy project planning: Gantt charts and milestones,
- Tracking time spent on tasks,
- Relationships between dates and tasks,
- Automatic notifications.
5. Controlled flow of information
Clear communication in a project leads to fewer misunderstandings, more efficient work, and meeting deadlines. To help with this, Flowgres provides:
- Open (public) communication with all parties involved in the project,
- Internal communication within a project team,
- Single-threaded content,
- Sole proprietorship,
- Tags, filters, and a priority system for task management,
- Outlook integration – no unread messages.
These advantages make Flowgres ideal for managing design and production processes, such as quality control, drawing reviews, and inspections on board ships or at shipyards.
The Flowgres project management platform is constantly being improved. New features and on-demand functions are continuously being developed to meet the needs of Flowgres users.
