Estimation Solutions

Our Estimation Solutions can help you to analyse your IT Projects in a few easy steps, get graphical feedback on predicted cost, effort, duration and even quality outcomes and then model variables that will improve your approach and planning and deliver better outcomes. Designed to add value from Initial Business case through detailed design and into execution and benefits realisation, Paracon Solutions Estimation solutions remove the guess work from estimating.

Technology Solutions

The core focus of our Technology Solutions Business is to enable organisations to realise tangible benefits from the implementation of technology solutions within their Project environments.

While important, technology is viewed strictly as the enabler to the Project Management environment and it is through this view that we are able to place the necessary emphasis on the importance of People and Process as the foundation of that technology’s successful implementation.

As a Microsoft Partner of over 20 years the core of our project technology enablement resides in the Microsoft Platform in the implementation of “Fit for Purpose” technology solutions that are fully integrated and aligned to business processes, practices and the maturity of the environment into which they will be implemented.

Resource Management

Maintaining the delicate balance between the supply and demand for resource skill and capacity, while ensuring that projects are delivered effectively and efficiently, is imperative for organisational success.

Our easy-to-use capacity planning and forecasting tools connect to leading PPM applications and give you a clear view of your human resource requirements, ensuring optimal utilisation.

Powerful what-if analysis and scenario planning tools allow you to forecast the impact that adding, cancelling, accelerating or delaying projects will have on your portfolio and resource capacity and requirements.
