Petroglyph Projects Provides Personalized Pipeline Project Support: Another Client Success Story

Petroglyph Projects Provides Personalized Pipeline Project Support: Another Client Success Story

A large North American pipeline owner company with over 7,000 employees wanted to improve their project outcomes, so they turned to Petroglyph Project’s proven expertise in pipeline project support.

 

The problem:

The owner’s current tool, P6 (Primavera) lacked the specialized linear project management features required to provide total transparency into the project’s data to manage the project effectively .  

The project team was constrained by non-intuitive multi page reports that were lacking both the specific details on project progress, as well as an easy to obtain and visually accurate macro-overview of the project.

The project controls recommendation:

The team at Petroglyph Projects analyzed the needs of the project controls team, and recommended TILOS Time Location Software due to its proven excellence in improving linear infrastructure project outcomes.

TILOS’ linear project specific functionality was the missing piece that would enable the owner’s team to access, proactively plan, adjust, optimize and report on the project’s progress.

The stakeholders at this pipeline owner company were impressed with the track record TILOS has in improving project outcomes and approved the provisioning of numerous software licences.

 

The project controls solution:

Petroglyph Projects provided complete end to end pipeline project controls support.

 

TILOS software provisioning:

Once the TILOS licences were provisioned, the team at Petroglyph Projects was ready for implementation with TILOS training for the project team onsite at their offices in Houston, TX.

 

TILOS software training:

Both two day basic and two day advanced TILOS training courses and their associated PDU’s were delivered to the TILOS licence holders on the project team.

The TILOS customized training was the perfect way to help the project team begin to import data and implement TILOS renowned functionality on a specific project.

Onsite project controls and implementation support:

The team at Petroglyph Projects then transitioned from TILOS software provisioning and training into providing specific project controls and implementation support.  Providing on site software technical support and assistance with using TILOS in the day-to-day of project scheduling, changes, reporting and troubleshooting. In addition to in the office support, the the team also meets with the field controllers regularly to help ensure seamless communication of project data across the organization.”

“They see the value in the tool and feel comfortable having me here to support them in using this tool” says Daniel Cadena, of Petroglyph Projects who has been onsite with the pipeline owner company for the past 9 months.

“TILOS adds a lot of value. It’s easier for the team to show the status of the project construction to all stakeholders. Now they have 7-8 advanced users and they now have the ability to perform detailed project analysis, which they couldn’t do before.”

 

What this pipeline owner project team has to say about Petroglyph Projects software provisioning, training, implementation and project support services:

“I was initially skeptical, having been a Primavera user for a couple of decades. I didn’t see any reason to use anything different. I’d heard about March Charts. The managers were asking for them. I became persuaded based on what I saw presented by Petroglyph.

We’re using it in the most major project in the company and the benefits it provides are immeasurable. I am so impressed.

It’s difficult to get planning managers to use software tools, but their level of engagement with this tool is the hottest I’ve seen.

When we made the decision to implement TILOS we were just 60 days out from construction and I just didn’t know how we were going to pull this off. I don’t know how we would have implemented TILOS without Daniel and Petroglyph. Generally a timeline like that is insurmountable even using a tool we’re familiar with.

To anyone doing any kind of location based project, the tool and the team at Petroglyph is a must have. “

Davis, Lead Planner

TILOS Linear Software Updated: Version 10.1 MR 1 has been released

TRIMBLE TILOS has released a new version of TILOS linear scheduling software which provides enhancements to XML export and import functionality.

Using the TILOS XML exporter and importer provides the following functionality:

● transfer large amounts of data to and from other software

● exchange data between different versions of TILOS In the past, the intent of this exchange format was focused on the former scenario: exchanging XML with other applications; this is why problems were slow to arise from the latter scenario.

The current exchange scope contains all data needed (true data, not including graphical settings).

Starting with TILOS version 10.1 MR 1, you can exchange a richer set of data using the XML exporter and importer, which will help you when you need to revert to an earlier TILOS version, such as going from version 10.1 MR 1 to version 10.1. The new, more complete exchange profile includes all available tokens.

All TILOS users should be using version 10.1 MR 1.
