Project Management Associates: Adding Strategic Value to Projects through Highly Adaptable Solutions


“Our tools deliver easy techniques to organize and manage work, and report the progress conveniently through our solution for the entire enterprise,” explains Pereira. The solutions provided by PMA are available globally and are compatible with any device, elevating mobility. These solutions enable access to information on any particular project and personalize the client’s portfolio. “Personal experience is what matters to us, and our solutions assure that the accessible information is relevant,” adds Pereira. PMA presents a complete project portfolio management solution in two platforms, for professional service organization that focus on billable projects, and for IT organizations that focus on supporting and delivering internal projects. In addition, the company’s PMA Time is a one-timecard for processing projects, payrolls, and tracking employee leaves, while, PMA Expense automates and simplifies expense reporting and reimbursements. One-timecard discards the re-entering procedure and sends the leave records to the respective payroll systems for deducting and collecting balances accordingly. Thereby, the progress is visible in real time, enabling organizations to eradicate the cost of redundant systems.
PMA’s solutions provide a PPM environment that is a perfect blend of financial management and project execution capabilities. Disrupting the portfolio management space, PMA has introduced a new concept called Cadence projects that counters conventional time consuming project management models with better predictability for work that is often considered “other work”.

With the vision to streamline the various activities involved in project management, PMA has successfully implemented its solutions in a spectrum of industries. For instance, Mass Medical Society’s IT department needed to determine the performance of the resources assigned to projects. In order to assist the firm, PMA implemented Cadence’s project to measure the predictability and productivity of the workforce. Thereby, PMA delivered the client with a personalized cadence statistical model, helping evaluate peak time and general productivity to meet their demand and supply curves in project productivity.
Moving forward, PMA desires to increase its presence in the professional services markets while collaborating with ERP vendors that provide the needed financial matrix. PMA aims to continue delivering one-timecard and the tools that give project managers a very personal experience with their applications
