Divide your projects into a hierarchy of tasks

An incomplete or unclear work breakdown structure can cause misalignment and confusion resulting in project delays and scope creep. Proteus' WBS simplifies project planning and resource management. Project teams can easily create work packages adding costs, resources, scope, deliverables, procurement, project milestones and due dates for each one. This ensures all necessary work is recorded and gives a detailed overview of project tasks.

Review project performance

The WBS is created as you develop your new proposal in Proteus with all project data automatically transferred across and reflected on live dashboards when a project is approved. Live dashboards show project performance down to the lowest level of the WBS, including the percentage of project work completed against the schedule, what has been invoiced to date and how much remains in the budget. Automatically tracking time, costs and deliverables is a game-changer and improves project visibility.

Manage your project schedule

A project schedule is automatically created from the WBS. The Gantt charts provide a clear and accurate visual representation of project execution and updates in real-time.

Add scope variations

Changes to the project scope are incredibly common. The variation manager in Proteus allows users to add a variation, such as a change in project budget or schedule, and assess its impact before adding it to the project's WBS. Proteus ensures all variations go through the proper approval process to prevent scope creep.
