Capital Project Management Software
Capital Projects – Current Industry Challenges
Why OESuite® for Capital Projects Matters
Despite investing large sums of capital in modifications and turnarounds, these projects often sustain significant overruns in schedules, budgets, and meeting team completion goals. Cost overruns on projects can range from $750,000 – $2,000,000 per day. One of the key areas of opportunity is in streamlining work execution. Effective wrench time in capital projects across industry is no more than 30%. Waiting on work permits 1-2 hours/shift is not uncommon. Megaprojects are both complex and massive. With a robust framework for project delivery, small issues can quickly turn into multi-million dollar overruns.
Just 31% of all projects came within 10% of the budget in the past 3 years.
