5 tips for a more efficient project management

Who hasn't experienced it: an overwhelmed manager, an irritated team and the right hand doesn't know what the left is doing. From now on, that belongs tot he past. Here are 5 tips for more efficient project management:

A clear and standardised project plan is the most important thing of project management. The size of the project, deadlines and resource management should be clearly defined. Stay realistic in your planning and work with a programme that can process imprecise data. After all, it is not always possible to precisely define staffing and time (e.g. in the third quarter, etc.).

2. Detailed risk management

Elementary for an efficient project management is to keep an eye on potential risks for your project and to monitor them constantly. A risk analysis with the help of artificial intelligence, which reveals every possible risk, can be a great help and at the same time it minimises necessary resources.

3. Delegate, delegate, delegate

Remember that you have a team. So don't try to manage the project on your own, but distribute the tasks on your to-do list. You definetly have to pay attention to the workload of your colleagues. A tool with an overview of their capacities can be a game changer!

Set milestones for your project and keep an eye on the progress. Communicate these with your team and make sure you meet them so you don't fall behind your schedule. Record them in the application you use and make sure the whole team has access. Achieved milestones are motivating and progress can be shared directly with the client.

You need to keep track of the budget, i.e. the workload and financial resources for your project. Time tracking and a detailed financial report help you keep control. A risk warning as soon as your budget is in danger of being exceeded enables you to take immediate countermeasures and initiate further steps.
