How to manage projects and save time effectively
In the new year, many companies start implementing projects whose success is of great importance. Are you wondering how to plan your workflow effectively, divide responsibilities, what deadlines to set, and in which tools to invest? We have prepared some tips that will help facilitate project work, not only for project managers but for the entire team.
In the article, we answer the following questions:
How to effectively plan project activities?
Each project you start running is different from another. Before your team starts work, it is worth clearly defining the goals and assumptions to be achieved within the framework of a given project. They should be considered individually, taking into account the client’s requirements, the specifics of the industry in which you operate, costs, implementation time, and the number of employees participating in the performance of specifically designated activities.
All associates should read the details of the workflow carefully. As a result, the team can perform its duties reliably, and communication between departments will be effective and trouble-free.
It is also important to plan the deadlines for the implementation of each stage of the project. Additionally, employees can exchange comments on the course of work and conclusions. The exchange of experiences allows for development, introducing innovative solutions, and achieving positive results.
An important factor is also the appropriate motivations of specialists to participate in the project. For example, providing each participant with comfortable working conditions, such as proper tools to perform activities, specific working hours, and assigned tasks.

How to set delivary dates?
The challenge is often to close all stages of the project within the set time limit. There can be many reasons for delays. Remember to take into account when specifying the delivery date:
you share information with third parties
time to accept documents and tasks
employee leaves
time to introduce any changes
joint meetings
possible crises and their resolutions
Have you noticed that your team has a problem with meeting deadlines or with communicating? Take advantage of alerts and notifications sent automatically by the system via e-mails or text messages. This function ensures more comfortable work and optimizes communication between people, allowing you to automate processes. It also protects the work of the team against delays.
Another issue is the electronic document flow, which allows you to avoid problems with the approval and sending of documents without delays, even in the case of remote work. Workflow also improves the storage and archiving of documents. Problems with formalities often delay the project, which is why it is advisable to use an IT system from the very beginning, as it will empower you to improve the organization.
