GPS, automatic teller machine (ATM) or securities trading

While we are driving our car, our GPS knows where we are accurately and can re-plan our route in real-time.

When our family members travel to different cities, the automated teller machines (ATM) can handle transactions requested by your different members in real-time.

When we do securities transactions, exchange’s trading hall can process transaction requests and update data in real time.

While you are executing your project, can your project management system know your project status accurately in real-time? If you are using a manual-input form-based project management tool for project execution, you are quite far away from leveraging technology well since it is quite different from the technology used in GPS or ATM. In history, manual-input form-based project management tools were designed mainly for project planning, not for project execution.

It is most important that you use the right tool for your project execution.
