Project and Budget Control in 30 Minutes
Why Projects Derail Without You Noticing
Many organizations only realize too late that their projects are going off track and budgets are being exceeded. The cause? Outdated reports, Excel sheets that aren’t up to date, and a lack of real-time insights.
How can you prevent this?
On Wednesday, October 22 at 10:30 AM, Sumatra is hosting a compact, hands-on webinar:
“Project and Budget Control in 30 Minutes”
In just half an hour, discover how project managers, controllers, team leads, and budget holders can regain control over progress, planning, hours, and finances.
No complex software implementations. No vague theories. Just live demos, practical examples, and immediately applicable insights.
A Real-Life Example
An operations manager at a mid-sized technical service provider believed a project was “on schedule.” Progress reports looked fine, and hours seemed within budget. But when the CFO reviewed the quarterly figures, the project was already 20% over budget — with no clear explanation.
What went wrong?
- Hours were logged but not linked to the correct project phase
- Purchase invoices hadn’t been processed yet
- Excel reports were based on outdated data
Too late. Too incomplete. Too much guesswork.
What if you had control tomorrow?
With Sumatra Software, you get a single dashboard showing:
- Real-time progress, hours, and costs per project phase
- Documents, changes, and explanatory details at your fingertips
- Where to take action — before it’s too late
“Sumatra is quick to set up. In many cases, it pays for itself within 12 months. The dashboards show at a glance what needs attention, and you can immediately drill down into the details.”
– Ed van Paassen, Business Process Manager
What you’ll learn in the webinar:
- Why Excel always leaves you one step behind
- How other organizations gained real-time control over progress, budgets, and hours
- What they achieved: faster adjustments, fewer surprises, more peace of mind
Who is it for?
For project-driven organizations where planning, finances, and hours intersect.
Especially relevant for project managers, controllers, budget holders, and team leads who:
- Want to make decisions based on current data, not gut feeling
- Need to act quickly and decisively
- Want to take responsibility with full oversight
Also valuable for existing customers looking to get more out of Sumatra Software.
The webinar is open to everyone — with examples tailored to project- and budget-focused organizations.
