Web-Based
Project Management System
Catalyst™ is designed to facilitate communications,
business processes and users collaboration in the various
industries to bring together key components of project
management in areas of project work management and document
management. Focusing on its main objective to increase
efficiency, productivity, and ultimately reducing operational
costs, it provides individuals with the ability to manage
projects from one single application. The application
is further enhanced with collaborative tools which enables
users to collaborate securely from different locations,
in order to access, organise and share mission-critical
information.
To stay competitive, companies are increasingly implementing
initiatives to improve their project delivery by reducing
project life cycle times, minimizing project costs,
and controlling project quality. These initiatives require
effective project management skills. With Catalyst™,
clients will be able to initiate a project, create a
task for that project and assign it to a person. The
Catalyst™ concept is to keep the management of
tasks simple while providing a global view of project
status. Backed by an e-mail notification system, everyone
on a project is completely informed, every step of the
way.
Catalyst™ is developed on modular basis; all the
modules can be implemented on a standalone basis or
interfaced with other third party systems. Essentially,
Catalyst™ comprises of three major modules all
built on the IBM Lotus technology platform - Project
Workbench, Correspondence & Action Tracking System
as well as a Document Management System.
|
|
| (i) |
Project Workbench
(PW)
|
| |
 |
| |
The PW module key project
management features include centralised project
administration, project team registry, access
control centre and centralised information storage
for reference materials, templates of commonly
used documents etc. The module also features many
collaborative tools which enables users to collaborate
securely from different locations through browser-based,
single point of access, instant electronic workspace,
round the clock accessibility, live and issue
based discussion forums and sessions, as well
as built-in task management system.

|
| (ii) |
Correspondence &
Action Tracking System (CATS)
|
| |
The CATS module incorporates
the ability to centralise, organise and categories
various correspondence systems such as standard
letters, facsimile and e-mails. In important industries
or sensitive business operations, control and
easy accessibility of these correspondences are
extremely critical. The system incorporates a
configurable workflow to enable approval of internal
and external correspondences, as well as an audit
trail of the records. Also included in the system
is a minutes recording system whereby the respective
tasks set during the meetings are tagged and tracked
to ensure timely completion, monitored automatically
by reminders and reports via e-mails. One of the
core benefits of the system is to eliminate to
a large extent the use of papers, which is not
only environmentally friendly but more importantly
for businesses, highly inefficient and costly
to use, organise and maintain.

|
| (iii) |
Document Management
System (DMS)
|
| |
 |
| |
The DMS module is a ready-built
solution for storing and organising electronic
documents for effective shared access by work
teams. The system enables sophisticated version
control so that each project team member has the
latest versions of documents. Integrated with
PW and CATS, Catalyst™ automates document-driven
processes like review and approval, assembly and
publishing, archiving, and records management.
This module helps improve organisational effectiveness
by providing centralised, consistent management
of collaborative documents and information.

Catalyst™ accelerates the
ability of an organisation to enhance efficiency and
significantly lower cost by improving delivery times,
maximizing valuable resources and capturing best practices
for quicker returns.
