Use Of The PLCC To Save Projects

Published by

It is true that many projects fail to meet their schedule and budget goals. It is estimated that approximately 80% of projects fail to meet their original schedule and budget targets. This can be due to a variety of factors, including unexpected challenges that arise during the project, changes in project scope, inadequate resource planning, and poor project management.

In addition, it is common for projects to experience a phenomenon known as “scope creep,” where the focus of the project begins to drift away from the original objectives. This can occur when new requirements or tasks are added to the project without a corresponding increase in resources or time. As a result, the project can become bogged down and may struggle to meet its original schedule and budget targets.

Overall, there are many reasons why projects can fail to meet their schedule and budget goals. Effective project management and careful planning can help to minimize the risk of these failures and increase the chances of project success.

A Project Logistics Control Center (PLCC) is a central location or hub where all the logistics-related activities of a project are coordinated and managed. The PLCC is responsible for ensuring that materials, equipment, and other resources are acquired and delivered to the project site in a timely and efficient manner. It also helps to coordinate the movement of logistic people, such as logistics contractors, to and from the project site.

The use of a PLCC can be particularly important in projects that are at risk of failing to meet their schedule and budget goals. By providing a central point of control for logistics-related activities, the PLCC can help to ensure that all the necessary resources are available when and where they are needed. This can help to reduce the risk of delays and errors that can cause projects to fall behind schedule or go over budget. In many cases it will bring significant savings to a project

In addition, the PLCC can play a key role in helping to prevent scope creep and keep the project focused on its original objectives. By carefully managing the acquisition and allocation of resources, the PLCC can help to ensure that new tasks and requirements are properly integrated into the project plan and that the project stays on track. Overall, the use of a PLCC can be a valuable tool for helping to ensure the success of any project.

To make use of PFN members, companies can bring control and savings to any project. Feel free to inquire at info@pfn-network.com, or “country”@pfn-network.com (i.e. netherlands@pfn-network.com) if you have a country specific question or inquiry.
