Insufficient Transparency in Requirements Management:
The lack of a clear process for collecting, organizing, and tracking project requirements leads to frequent and difficult-to-trace requirement changes, impacting overall project planning and execution efficiency.
Insufficient Timeliness in Project Schedule Management:
Untimely project progress tracking and the lack of real-time monitoring and early warning mechanisms increase the risk of project delays and make it difficult to meet customer delivery requirements.
Disorganized Version Management of Documents and Drawings:
The lack of standardized version management for documents and drawings makes it difficult to identify differences between versions, easily leading to the use of incorrect versions in production or delivery, causing quality issues.
The paper-based review process is cumbersome and difficult to track:
The paper-based review document circulation is inefficient, making it difficult to record review opinions and follow up on rectification in real time, affecting project decision-making efficiency.
Difficulty in sharing product data:
Data is scattered across different departments and individuals, lacking a unified sharing platform, resulting in severe information silos and affecting team collaboration efficiency.
Disorganized EC changes and inability to accumulate knowledge:
The lack of standardized processes for Engineering Change (EC) management and unclear change records prevent the effective accumulation and transfer of knowledge, affecting the reference and optimization of subsequent projects.
Outputs are not linked to project work:
Project deliverables lack effective linkage with specific work tasks, making it difficult to trace task execution and deliverable ownership, impacting project management and performance evaluation.
Disorganized access control, prone to data leakage:
Inadequate data access control leads to a lack of effective control over data access and operations, posing a risk of data leakage and misuse.
