The goal of an educational institution's capital
construction team is to build, grow and maintain
innovative workspaces for students to learn. But many
schools face unique challenges while trying to deliver on
this promise.
School systems scramble to keep multiple stakeholders
updated with how they are spending their funding and
it is a full-time job to keep all the specific rules straight
for how they can spend their multiple sources. Not to
mention the cost and headache of managing assets
after projects are completed. And the cherry on top is
the rise of hackers targeting schools to hold security
data for ransom. School staff is stretched thinner than
ever. They are doing the most they can with what
they have. They hardly have time to focus on building
curriculum much less planning facility updates or
expansion.
With all this at stake, why is the education industry so
slow to modernize the way they are working to deliver
to the community, on-time, and on-budget schools
for our students? Using a flexible and agile program
management information system (PMIS) will not only
deliver hours back in a day but will also reveal greater
insights into how each project is progressing, the
status of each funding source, make audits a breeze
and reporting to stakeholders as simple as a click of a
report.
