Real-Time Insight Into Project Performance
ADEACA Project Business Automation™ (PBA) brings leaders of project-driven companies the real-time insight they need to transform their companies into high-performing enterprises in their industry.
Controlled processes yield reliable metrics
For project-driven enterprises, the single most important objective is the successful and profitable delivery of contract delivery commitments. This requires close management of a wide range of KPIs across business regions and project portfolios and demands a high degree of visibility into real-time status at any level within the reporting hierarchy.
Holistic Project View
To generate meaningful project analytics, you need to incorporate operational as well as financial performance indicators. Unlike most mainstream ERP solutions, ADEACA PBA lets you manage project financials as well as project operations within a single solution thereby providing truly holistic project intelligence in real time.
Reporting hierarchies
The built-in reporting hierarchies allow you to easily identify potential problem areas at enterprise or portfolio level and subsequently drill down into projects and planning structures to identify root causes. All metrics originate from a single integrated solution, are governed by enforceable best practices and backed by full audit trail resulting in reliable and actionable KPIs.
Trends and benchmarks
Raw KPIs aside, Adeaca PBA also provides the tools required to identify performance trends and benchmark your performance against company goals and industry standards. Because there is no data translation or time-lapse between source transactions and visualization the intelligence is available in real-time enabling you to make timely and informed business decisions.
The Path to Artificial Intelligence for Project Business
Whitepaper: How Project Business Automation can set the stage for an AI revolution in project-based industries
The definitive document on AI in Project Business. Download this whitepaper to answer these questions:
- How does the right project intelligence data create the foundation for AI?
- What is the right project intelligence data for AI to use?
- Why will my current application landscape not support an effective use of AI?
- What should I do first to set up my company for an effective AI strategy?
Learn how can you get artificial intelligence to work for you in a Project Business, like construction, engineering, ETO/contract manufacturing, or professional services.
Early Detection Prevents Escalation
In the world of projects, it is not what you know but when you know it that really matters. What senior management needs, but rarely has, is a way to easily and instantly recognize changing conditions and risks. Slight but accelerating budget overruns, minor but multiplying issues, or early erosion of scheduled slack are a few of the many common incidences in the project life cycle, and all are challenges that can be resolved by timely detection and intervention.
Adeaca PBA™ does all the data mining for you and ensures warning signs are flagged immediately and well before they deteriorate and significantly impact project performance.

Portfolio Analytics
Based on user-defined reporting hierarchies, portfolio analytics provide an overview of project and portfolio performance with drill-down capabilities from portfolio groups and portfolios to projects and into planning structures (CBS & WBS). Project KPIs are seamlessly consolidated in a range of project business dashboards including graphical representations of core metrics via traffic light sensor points, bubble charts and other graphic controls.
Sensor Points™
ADEACA PBA's Sensor Points™ are used across financial and operational disciplines to automatically monitor project events, flagging deviations and trends. The sensor point system provides a real-time in-depth view of potential problem areas without having to manually data mine the project. Manage risks in real-time across your project portfolio.
Earned Value Analytics
Based on recorded progress indicators, actual costs and planned execution of a project, the earned value analytics framework computes schedule and cost performance indexes by deducting the delta between planned value, earned value and actual costs. EVA is computed against the cost breakdown structure with performance indexes calculated at every level.
Workspaces
Workspaces are designed to support the execution of specific tasks, for instance, month-end close, managing scope changes, or following up on project schedules. For ease of use and navigation, a workspace features a reduced menu structure and
Additionally, BI artifacts highlight important project intelligence relevant to the workspace and counter tiles summarize your current workload ensuring that work items are not missed.
