Analytics Solution

Client:

The customer sought to create an analytics solution that would allow them to anticipate and oversee the success of new and continuing projects in two dimensions: budget and schedule, across various stages, such as bidding, planning, pre-construction, and construction.

Challenges:

Project success must be predicted properly and early to allow for remedial action.
There are over 200 attributes to evaluate in the database.
Data entered manually by project managers has missing values, mistakes, and inconsistencies.
