The Columbus Regional
Airport Authority (CRAA) is a public entity that works to connect Central
Ohio with the world. It oversees operations at three airports?Port Columbus
International Airport, Rickenbacker International Airport, and Bolton Field
Airport?and manages the Rickenbacker Inland Port and
CRAA deployed Oracle’s Primavera P6 Enterprise Project Portfolio Management
to create a unified methodology for scheduling and capital cash flow
management. Today, the organization manages schedules and costs for all of its
capital projects by using Primavera to provide enterprise wide visibility. As a
result, CRAA cut unbudgeted carryover costs from US$24.4 million in 2010 to
US$3.5 million in 2011?an 88% improvement. "Oracle’s Primavera P6 and Primavera Contract
Management are transforming project management at CRAA. We have enabled
resource-loaded scheduling and expanded visibility into cash flow, which
allowed us to reduce unbudgeted carryover by 88% in a single year.” – Alex
