Resource-based estimating
Allocate resources in your cost estimate to activities in a schedule with our resource-based estimating tool. Cleopatra seamlessly connects the cost and time elements of your projects to ensure efficient usage of resources on your time-driven projects or turnarounds. By visualizing the progression of your resource usage over time, you can quickly identify and resolve potential resource bottlenecks and cashflow issues.
Planning and scheduling
With Cleopatra’s Work Pack Planning solution, you can define dependencies and relations within work packs. This capability equips the scheduler with the necessary data for timeslot allocation, resource leveling, and schedule optimization. By specifying task dependencies and relationships, you can ensure that your project schedule is accurately represented and that resources are allocated efficiently. This enhances the scheduler’s ability to optimize schedules and streamline project execution.
User-friendly interface
Cleopatra’s intuitive interface facilitates efficient project and turnaround scheduling while streamlining project management tasks. It simplifies the process of creating and modifying schedules, assigning resources, and defining dependencies. With its user-friendly design, Cleopatra empowers project managers to navigate even complex project schedules with ease.
Seamless integration with project controls
Cleopatra seamlessly integrates with other software platforms and external tools such as Primavera P6 and Microsoft Project. Within Cleopatra, the schedule is well integrated between various parts of the system: the cost estimate, cost management baseline, work packs, and more all have access to the project schedule. This ensures that responsible managers will have a holistic view of the project or turnaround, enabling them to make informed decisions and effectively manage resources, costs, and time.
