Project Management Information System often referred as PMIS
is a self explanatory term that refers to managing information pertaining to
different projects that performed in any organization. As you are aware that there
are various business organizations where different projects are executed and
huge fleet of persons is deputed to accomplish different tasks required to
accomplish each project. But for proper accomplishment of every project it is
necessary that there is proper communication between all persons involved in
that specific project and that everyone is updated with the progress taking
place under different phases that are performed in each project.
In earlier days this method was conducted through spread
sheets where all persons working on specific project shared a common sheet
revealing the information about the tasks accomplished by them. But this system
had its own limitations and suffered from various drawbacks. To overcome all
these problems various software companies like Project Status have developed a
software named as Project Management Information System making it easier for
all persons involved in different projects taken by organization to get updated
about the progress operated by organization at one click.
The software not only contains the names of different
persons but also the responsibility that would be performed by them along with
the time and date within which they would be required to accomplish it. Once
they accomplish their part of responsibility its information is transferred to
every concerned persons working on that project. Well it is not only a feature
of this software, it is blessed with bunch various remarkable features. So when
a person accomplishes his part of responsibilities he makes a mark on it as
work done making it easier for persons to understand about the accomplishment
of that phase of project and making others alert about the responsibilities
which they are required to perform for finishing the next phase of that
project. Once the whole project is accomplished it marked as accomplished
project and interestingly if the project is accomplished before the actual time
of accomplishment it is marked as milestone.
The worth mentioning feature of this project is that if any
task is not completed on time the responsible persons may indicate the reasons
of delay in accomplishment of that phase, thus making it easier for clients to
know about the reasons in delay. Similarly if they are not satisfied with any
activity performed during their project its information can be sent to all the
concerned persons at one click. Thus, in simple words it can be said that PMIS
is a multi-furious tool that facilitates to keep watch on the progress of
project instantly by pressing few keys of their system.
