Every large project has two reports. One holds dates and percent complete; the other holds invoices, advances and acceptance certificates. As long as they live in different systems and are reconciled by hand, the executive is the last to learn about an overrun. Here is how Oracle Primavera P6 and Oracle JD Edwards EnterpriseOne bring schedule and money into one picture, and where to start.<\/strong><\/p>\n In brief<\/p>\n Monday morning meeting. The project manager reports: “We are on schedule, 60% complete.” The CFO looks at her own report: “And 80% of the money is already spent.” Both are right, both are reading their own system, and neither can answer the owner\u2019s main question: is there enough money to finish?<\/p>\n A schedule without money is a pretty calendar. Money without a schedule is a bank statement. You can only manage a project when the two meet in one table.<\/p>\n Oxford professor Bent Flyvbjerg built a database of 16,000 projects across countries and industries. The result is sobering: 8.5% met both cost and schedule, and just 0.5% also delivered all the promised benefits. McKinsey consultants reviewed more than 300 megaprojects worth a billion dollars or more and saw the same pattern: budgets exceeded by about 80% on average, schedules by about 50%.<\/p>\n Something else matters more. Looking at 48 troubled megaprojects, McKinsey concluded that in 73% of cases the overruns and delays came from poor execution rather than politics or force majeure. The problem is usually inside: in planning, in control, and in how fast management sees deviations.<\/p>\n Measure twice, cut once, the saying goes. In project business you measure every week, preferably with the same ruler.<\/p>\n Oracle Primavera P6<\/strong> is a critical-path scheduling system. Its territory is time:<\/p>\n Project portfolio and resource loading in Oracle Primavera P6. Oracle demo data.<\/em><\/p>\n Oracle JD Edwards EnterpriseOne<\/a><\/strong> is an ERP system. Its territory is money and commitments:<\/p>\n Budget and actuals by project cost code in JD Edwards EnterpriseOne (Russian-language interface). Demo data.<\/em><\/p>\n A planner does not need to know whether the rebar invoice has been paid. An accountant does not need to understand the critical path. But they share one project, and their numbers must not contradict each other.<\/p>\n The link works like a two-way street. The plan travels one way, the actuals travel the other.<\/p>\n What moves between Primavera P6 and JD Edwards. Diagram by RBC Group.<\/em><\/p>\n Oracle shipped a pre-built integration pack for this pair of systems: it synchronised the project structure, resources, actual costs and timesheets. Today the exchange is usually built on Primavera Gateway, the middleware Oracle positions for moving data between Primavera products and other enterprise applications, or on the web services of both systems. Which route to take depends on your versions and on how much data you really need to move back and forth.<\/p>\n Once schedule and money are joined, earned value management becomes possible. A simple example. The project budget is 100 million. By today the plan called for 50% of the work; 40% is actually done, and 55 million has been spent.<\/p>\n You can have these three numbers in the middle of the project, not at the handover party. On top of them you get:<\/p>\n It is a system for critical-path scheduling and project portfolio management. It is used in construction, oil and gas, energy, mining and anywhere projects are long, expensive and made up of thousands of linked activities.<\/p>\n So that plan and actuals meet in one place. Without integration, dates live in the schedule, money lives in the books, and deviations surface a month or a quarter late.<\/p>\n JD Edwards has its own project management module, and for companies with simple schedules it is enough. When there are thousands of activities and resources are shared across projects, you need a specialised scheduler.<\/p>\n Master data, work structure, planned dates and budgets go from the schedule to accounting. Actual costs and progress come back. The exact scope is defined at the design stage.<\/p>\n General contractors and developers, oil and gas and mining companies, utilities, engineer-to-order manufacturers and anyone who runs capital projects and manages production assets<\/a>.<\/p>\n RBC Group is an Oracle partner.
