Project Business Automation
Today, businesses across all industries finish more than half of all their projects either behind schedule or over budget. This leaves great room for improvement for processes, that have been left largely untouched for years and instead, handled in old-fashioned and outdated ways. Formerly, businesses have maintained and governed systems, information and insight, that is critical for their survival, with manual labor in a siloed manner. This can lead to asynchronization of data, errors and poor collaborations, because it isn’t passed to stakeholders, or because the stakeholders are not able to reach it in time.
Adeaca PBA and Bluestar PLM
Adeaca PBA (Project Business Automation) and Bluestar PLM are both embedded in the well-known structure of the Microsoft Dynamics 365 platform. Though some departments will find the use of Microsoft Dynamics 365 ERP system sufficient, other company divisions and branches might still be suffering from working in a siloed order, greatly affecting the business as a whole. By adding PLM and PBA to that equation, it facilitates the gathering and streamlining of product data on a shared and collaborative platform for businesses to distribute this across internal departments, such as sales, engineering, purchasing, and manufacturing, to external suppliers and customers.

Key Features
A seamless integration
All three modules, PBA, ERP and PLM, are seamlessly integrated on one shared platform. It means that all users will have access to the same projects and process data, enabling swift flows and generating of material e.g. BOMs and 3D models.
Real-time visibility
While projects unfold and product solutions are shaped, users can share necessary information, meaning that Finance can provide Engineering with half-way price estimates to align expectations and forecast before production is initiated.
Standardization and integration
Through Project Business Automation (PBA), project-based businesses are addressed in their entirety, instead of in a siloed form. This systemization forces business departments to align.
Automatic risk management
Real time and automatic governance of processes and projects prepares businesses for risks and allows early response, reducing or completely eliminating failure.
Maximizing capabilities
Less projects will be done over budget or behind schedule because business capacities as well as internal and external constraints are intelligently managed and utilized. Thereby, client expectations are met while revenue-producing resources are maximised.
