BuildOnline has launched what it claims is "the first ‘heatmap-based’ programme management system". Project managers get a real-time ‘pressure gauge’ to monitor progress across their projects. The system was developed in partnership with BNP Paribas, and is described as an "enterprise-class programme management system … targeted at project managers of mission-critical projects, such as the Wembley Stadium rebuild" (bit late for that!).
It is not the first programme management solution offering such colour-coded maps to the AEC space. By chance, I read the latest AECbytes newsletter this morning, and there is a screengrab of a strikingly similar interface from Deltek’s Vision 4 Visualization feature (see also Deltek website here).
