Project control at Borjsazan Parsian Company is a process to maintain the project path with the aim of achieving economic balance, which depends on the three factors of quality, time and budget. In fact, these three factors are the main factors that create constraints in a project. Parsian has a specific method to create a balance between these three factors. By controlling and managing an architectural project, when the project deviates from the main path, the cause can be identified and reviewed and a solution can be provided to fix it.
What is project control?
Project Control is the process of collecting and analyzing project data to guide costs and schedules on the right track. Project control tasks include initiating, planning, monitoring and controlling, communicating, and determining project costs and schedules. Ultimately, project control is an iterative process of determining the status of the project, predicting possible outcomes based on those outcomes, and then improving project performance if outcomes are unacceptable.
Some of the project control activities include:
- Aligning projects with the organization’s goals and portfolio
- Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) Development
- Collaboration in initial project plans
- Developing a risk management plan
- Project budgeting and forecasting
- Monitoring project costs
- Feedback and reporting
- Optimize project strategies to achieve better results in the future
Hierarchically, project control is a subset of project management. Project controllers on the Parsian team continuously report to the project manager about a specific project or the entire portfolio to prevent the slightest possible risks in the project.
Project control is essential for its successful management, as it informs project stakeholders of potential problems and allows them to implement corrections if necessary. The project control activities of the Borj Sazan Parsian Company team are carried out throughout the entire project life cycle (from the inception stage to the time of closure) to control the various factors that affect the cost and schedule.
Our company’s project manager doesn’t just want to know if there has been a cost overrun, but also wants to know the root causes, the exact numbers, and how to fix it. That’s why Parsian Team’s project controllers continuously report to the project manager about a specific project or the entire portfolio.
Budgeting
Integrating the budgeting process into project activities is essential to accurately calculate costs and understand when and why they exceed planned limits. By budgeting and refining it in stages, a transparent model will be available to senior managers and team members to act as a benchmark throughout the project and make important costs understandable.
Project Management
This phase involves creating processes and systems that can help team members communicate and collaborate with each other. Our goal is to seamlessly integrate status updates, meeting time recording, learnings, and workflow management so that teams can focus on actual execution rather than day-to-day tasks.
Difference between project management and project control
The overlap in function between these two disciplines can sometimes make it difficult to understand the distinction between them. Many organizations assign the role of project controller to one of the project managers, making the issue more complicated. However, it is important to recognize the difference between the two in order to fully understand the role of project controller.
Project Management
Project management is a comprehensive function that involves managing the people, processes, and deliverables of a project through various functions. In addition to cost and schedule, it also focuses on quality and scope. The goal of project management is the complete success of a project given the available resources .
Project control
Project control is a sub-function and focuses on only two parameters: cost and schedule. For example, management and quality control are not part of the scope of project control.
The main goal of project control is to minimize variances in costs and schedule from what was initially planned.
The manager of ongoing projects at Parsian Company, using knowledge and skills, has complete mastery of project control and management tools and is familiar with basic concepts and management principles, with the aim of managing and implementing the necessary activities to achieve the predetermined goal and meet the expectations of architectural project employers.
Parsian’s experienced team, by managing architectural projects, defines a clear path to achieving project success and achieving the goal, and based on that, determines the duration of the project. It must also estimate what costs may be incurred to implement the project.
As a result, Parsian, as a project manager in architecture, is responsible for preventing high costs by making correct economic estimates and making appropriate decisions. Ensuring that the budget and project costs are under control is also essential for achieving success, which Sara does well.
