Two Sides of the Same Coin: Capital Projects - ENC Projects

 

Managing capital projects is indeed the same as managing ENC projects. The main difference is the viewpoint of the party that actually manages a capital project, whether it is the owner or a contractor doing that job. The big picture and the detailed tasks at hand are the same. The overall project management process can therefore not be optimized unless both perspectives are taken into consideration.  

 

Scenarios for managing capital projects with SAP and Primavera depend among other things on how the following questions are answered:

  • Who owns the SAP system - the product owner or the ENC company?
  • Will SAP-centric maintenance tasks commence before the asset has been completed?

For more specific aspects to consider see the following articles.

Now this will go a long way to finding out whom NOT to go with. As for specific examples. Everybody should be able to bring across more than 10,000 activities from SAP into Primavera in less than an hour- even with resource assignments, relationships an dozens of fields.

 

Consider to set up specific and controlled test environments and let the vendors show you what they are capable of.
