How ProjectVIEW ERP Applies to Water Supply & Sewer Networks
Managing Linear Networks, Pumping Stations, and Distributed Assets
These projects span extensive networks of pipelines, pumping stations, manholes, and connection points. Work often crosses urban and remote environments. Materials, crews, and equipment operate across multiple work fronts. As a result, cost control and coordination become challenging.
ProjectVIEW ERP allows contractors to structure costs by pipeline sections, pumping stations, and work packages. This maintains consolidated visibility at project and program level.
Example:
Track installation costs and material usage for separate pipeline sections and pumping stations. At the same time, maintain a single financial view of the entire water network project.
Controlling Materials, Temporary Works, and Excavation-Driven Costs
Water and sewer construction is heavily driven by excavation, shoring, dewatering, and temporary reinstatement works. Variations in ground conditions, utility clashes, and reinstatement requirements can significantly impact cost and productivity.
ProjectVIEW ERP provides visibility into material consumption, temporary works costs, and method-driven changes. Teams can therefore identify cost overruns tied to excavation and ground-related risks early.
Example:
Identify cost increases caused by additional shoring or dewatering requirements and assess their impact before they escalate across the project.
Managing Workforce Productivity in Live Urban Environments
Many water and sewer projects take place within live urban environments. Teams must therefore coordinate with traffic management, public access, and utility stakeholders. Crew productivity is often affected by access restrictions and frequent relocations.
ProjectVIEW ERP links labor costs and productivity to specific work fronts and locations. This enables management to monitor efficiency and adjust resource deployment in real time.
Example:
Detect productivity losses caused by frequent work-front changes in dense urban areas and optimize crew sequencing to reduce idle time.
