The Management Machine
Running a project? (well… almost everything in life is a project, except for maybe assembly lines..)

That means working according to the plan you have devised. It’s purpose is to monitor and control zillions of tasks originating from that plan. Soon enough you’d be faced with the painful gap between the plan and project’s reality In order to bridge that gap, decades old management guidance rules are applied:
 * Keep the plan up-to-date - we know that it’s never there
 * Close monitoring on people’s actions and deliverables
 * Conducting frequent status meetings to stay on top of the issues holding the project from moving forward
 * Bulleted list item
 * Preparing decision support presentations that among others must include: Current State, Future State, Issues, Risks, Financial Impacts....

Let me stop describing this headache you know so well

Introduction:
The Management Machine -->  TheManagementMachine.com 

Imagine having a machine that would do all of that tedious work for you. The Machine continuously and automatically collects data from various and diverse sources and builds an up-to-date a full and comprehensive project plan. It collects, and transforms any type of data: application data, formatted and not formatted data, then it normalizes it all for further analysis.

That machine produced plan contains all sorts of tasks: engineering tasks, management tasks, tasks from private and public to-do-lists, minutes-of-meetings, duration, dependencies, milestones deliverables... you name it.

The machine’s plan has everything you ever wanted to be included in your plan, however it has never even been considered realistic to produce such a plan, not to mention maintaining one. Such a machine's all encompassed plan truly bridges the gap between your plan and business reality.

Hold on, this is where the real fun begins.

Based on the plan and the other supporting data, the machine analyzes projects status and trends using best of breed business analysis and intelligence frameworks using stunning visual data science dashboards which provide the ever needed support for making evidence-based decisions

It is a data hungry machine, unlike humans, it doesn’t really care how much data is out there. The machine produced dashboards and data representations are web enabled interactive applications available at your disposal 24/7

The Dashboards tell you factual, up-to-date, and accurate business stories every single day.


 * With that in hand, you can say goodbye to presentation preparations, not to mention the frustration that comes along with preparing them.
 * Just think of how many meetings the machine will save you and your organization.
 * It gives you the time to stay focused on where your talents are really required, while management overhead is reduced to none
 * The machine does not require any organization changes. The machine adapts itself to the organization and not vice-versa. (Think of what a management consultant firm would do to your organization instead)

“and remember, if you’d be really nice to the machine it allows you to sit back and relax, enjoy your coffee break you missed for so long”, how about that?
