Health check - Project diagnostics
 
Project Diagnostics is a tool for construction industry stakeholders wishing to improve project delivery and outcomes. This software identifies areas of poor project health, then establishes probable root causes and provides suggested remedial measures. Its focus is to act as an advanced warning system for construction projects that are failing to meet predetermined objectives based on the critical success factors (CSFs) of cost, time, quality, safety, relationships, environment and stakeholder value. Based on the understanding that the implementation of specific remedies is the most important step towards bringing a project back to good health, Project Diagnostics uses a cyclic mechanism that repeats a project investigation until the problems are remedied.
 
The Project Diagnostics software and its associated consulting service can assist in overcoming the consequences of project failures such adverse impacts as cost and time overruns, inadequate build quality, poor project relationships, loss of reputation and legal disputes.
