Project Costing

We all know that software does not determine success or failure of a project.  Far more significant factors are good project management skills, a dedicated, qualified project team, accurate estimating and a client or sponsor that is committed to getting the job done properly. Even the definition of a successful project varies from one project to the next, between project managers within an organization and most definitely between individuals from different business backgrounds.

 

Aspire Project Costing has powerful, reliable tools for tracking, monitoring and measuring project performance. The built in flexibility allows you to custom fit the software to your business needs.  Controlled project resource lists, customized work breakdown structures and required approvals promote quality and integrity of project management information.  Accurate, reliable project information inspires confidence in the project manager and you can be sure the project team and the client will notice.

​
