sound familiar?Janet’s company was ready to relaunch their website with a new look and feel, content management system, and request management system. She knew that off-shore web development might lower costs, but worried that managing the project might be difficult. After all, even orchestrating her internal review team proved challenging at times, as people were constantly on the move. Then she discovered the folks at Creative-Ops. A Creative-Ops project manager explained how our web-based creative management software enabled us to keep projects on schedule and under budget. Clients had direct access to project details, assignments and schedules. In fact, all members of the client team, no matter where they were, or what time of day, could log in and review progress, make revisions, even request new projects at a time and place that was most convenient to them. All of which enabled this project to stay on schedule, come in under budget, and add power and energy to their web presence. |
Strengthening Team ConnectionsCreative-Ops’ powerful online creative management software interconnects our team members, streamlining the management and implementation of all projects. For your next project, this software could make the difference between making a critical deadline...or missing one. Project ManagementOur creative management software helps us plan project tasks and assign them to appropriate staff. Visual Gantt charts and calendars allow managers to review staff assignments at a glance. By granting free access to this system to designated client staff members, they could check on project status from any web browser. The software also enables Creative-Ops to spend less time in production meetings and know at-a-glance who is available to take on more work. It ensures maximum productivity and helps us maintain an even flow of work at all times. Deadline ManagementOur online connection also places all of our calendar information in one place. New project and current project management calendars are integrated. Specifications that are captured during the briefing process can be automatically transferred to new jobs. Project schedules, staff meetings, meetings, and even personal appointments are all integrated into one calendar for easy review. Online Review of Proofs and CompsTo minimize slowdowns due to outside reviews, rescheduled meetings, vacations, and other disruptive events, we can publish our creative work on-line and route files for external review with client departments and outside vendors. Free client access allows any number of outside users to review and comment on the work that we have done to date. Version control allows us to manage the latest version of our creative work, or return to previous versions. Extensive file search capabilities enable everyone to quickly find specific documents that may be needed for review. Automatic email notifications provide us with an easy way to know when that document you’ve been waiting for has been updated. Online Project Request, Job Status reviewDesignated client staff, accessing our system using a standard browser, can also initiate new projects, avoiding the delays of email, or snail-mail, and helping us to prepare for your upcoming jobs. We can add an unlimited number of client department passwords into the system, giving clients front door access to enter new requests, modify pending requests, review the progress of projects, monitor project schedules, and more. Time ManagementOur creative management software also allows designers to easily enter and track their time accurately. So billing will be based on an accurate accounting of actual hours spent.
