Blue Cord modernizes scheduling with Oracle Primavera Cloud

Blue Cord is a certified service-disabled veteran-owned small business based in Orlando, Florida. The company provides design-build, general construction, real estate development, and more services nationwide for clients including the Veterans Administration, US Defense Department, and Army Corps of Engineers. Understanding the inefficiencies of managing robust project schedules via printed hard copies, Blue Cord wanted to move to the cloud. After implementing Oracle Primavera Cloud, the company eliminated the risk of multiple versions of project schedules, which could create gaps in project management organization and reporting. With Primavera, schedules are standardized with improved timeliness and accuracy in reporting. Blue Cord also gained a robust “what-if” analysis feature to allow for planning on the fly with guided analysis of schedule slippage in real time. With ambitious plans to diversify the company over the next 15 years, Blue Cord leaders understood the importance of adopting new technologies in construction. With Primavera Cloud and the formation of an AI taskforce, the company is well on its way toward improving the quality and speed of performance for all project managers in the field.
