Plan and deliver successful projects

It’s reported that 37% of projects fail due to inaccurate requirements gathering1 and PWC reported that 41% of projects that fail are due to change(s) in scope mid-project2. This is often because the right people weren’t involved from the start and the project requirements were poorly defined and managed. As a result, throughout delivery, progress is blighted by change requests, scope creep and unexpected issues. This leads to cycles of rework and delays, which ultimately put the project at risk of ever being implemented. Most project management solutions focus only on task management and miss the opportunity to support people in the all important front-end planning phases. Barvas, the new project management solution from MindGenius, is designed specifically to eliminate those issues and give your project the best chance of success. Barvas guides users through a six-step process based on years of experience and close engagement with project managers. To ensure that a project is planned and delivered successfully, there are four key pillars, integral to Barvas, that support tackling our customers’ challenges.

Process From defining the problem to delivering the solution, Barvas provides guidance every step of the way.

Teamwork Projects break down into activities and tasks, which often require many people to co-ordinate their efforts to get things done. Barvas provides all the tools required to keep everyone updated and aware of their responsibilities.

Communication Every project will present challenges, which will introduce the need for tough and firm decision making. Barvas provides the capability for teams to have discussions around any proposed change to scope or priorities, and ensures the relevant people are informed and in agreement.

Insight Projects get into trouble when there is a lack of transparency in relation to progress, scope and change. With Barvas there is a unique project workspace – a one version of the truth portal that contain all the information that helped shape and define the project and an extensive dashboard set to provide definitive insight of progress with all aspects of delivery.

Barvas has a unique built-in mapping component that helps overcome the common planning issue, encouraging users to engage with stakeholders, gather their requirements and agree what is needed before focusing on the delivery stage. It becomes a complete project workspace for requirements, tasks, timelines, dashboards and social communications. Keeping all the project information in one place and all stakeholders fully informed. Barvas has been in Beta since November last year and is going from strength to strength. We have an exciting roadmap ahead and would love for you to join us on this exciting journey and try Barvas for free.
