Are you utilising a programme for your projects?
Many don't, and those who do often create one solely for the client, then promptly forget about it.
One of the most frequent complaints I hear from my clients is projects not finishing on time. This 'scope creep' that infiltrates projects, preventing timely completion, is a significant issue for clients as well.
A programme is essential, and it should be a living document—used daily and updated at least weekly. I can recommend several affordable options for creating Gantt charts that will keep you on track and thinking ahead. How often have you had a tradesman approach you demanding sand immediately, without any prior notice? I'd wager it's happened to every one of you listening. This lack of foresight is precisely why programmes are crucial. They're all about communication—informing everyone involved what needs to be done and when ensuring materials arrive at the right time. A well-maintained programme can assist you in countless ways. Your programme is the backbone of your project management system. So, implement one today.
