Projectmates has released Version 9.0 of its web-based construction software. Some of the enhancements made include a new and improved project home page, updates to the schedule module, and the ability to approve budgets.
New Project Home Page: Every project's home page now has an improved BIC section which allows users to filter their assignments by date or module, and also send these items to their Outlook calendar, so deadlines aren't missed. Project maps have also been added, as well as the latest photos added to the project.
Schedule: In Version 9.0, you can track baseline, planned, and actual dates in Projectmates' schedule module. All three are displayed in both the task list and the gantt chart views, so you can better manage your scheduled tasks.
Budget: Budget approvals have been added to Projectmates. Once approved, the specified budget columns will become locked from future editting. So, you can create an original budget in column 1, approve and lock it, and then manage any changes to the budget using the variance column (column 2). We've also added the ability to create a Master Budget for all or several of your projects. The master budget can be approved and used to allocate money to multiple subprojects, as well as, report actual costs back from those subprojects.
