Challenges

An Excel-driven environment could not support formal EVM requirements, leaving reporting disconnected, governance inconsistent and compliance at risk.

  • Disconnected systems with no unified governance
  • No real-time visibility or controlled reporting
  • Inconsistent management of baselines and change

Solution

The contractor implemented Contruent Enterprise as a purpose-built EVM platform integrating cost, schedule and reporting within a standardized controls framework.

  • Integrated with IFS and Primavera P6
  • Standardized processes for updates and change
  • Enabled adoption with implementation playbooks

Results

The contractor gained stronger visibility, alignment and controlled workflows to support scalable, audit-ready EVM execution.

  • Real-time access with full auditability
  • Alignment on reporting and performance metrics
  • Transparent workflows for forecasting and claims

“We helped them stand up an environment in eight weeks instead of our usual 12.”
