Project Cost Control - mpower
Manage Project Cost through the Full Lifecycle

Our company has been involved with Monitor for at least ten years. We recently invested in mpower for cost management, time capture, billing and reporting. We decided not to take the planning module of mpower in this instance, and instead bought a third-party tool to interface with it. Monitor’s people were heavily involved in planning and implementing the systems, and worked with our own people to develop the interface between the two products.We’re currently working on a large number of projects, and using the same toolset on each means we can easily transfer people from one project to another. They all know how the system works, so there’s no learning curve when someone moves to another project - they can just get on with it. One of the key benefits of mpower’s integrated toolset is that as information flows in, it’s filtered through to the correct area. This way we don’t have cost disparity, or cost and billing systems that require interfaces to transfer data - or worse, a need for people to re-key the same data into two or three different systems. It’s all in one area, a shared database that everyone can use.
