From local agencies to national and international offices, government workers
are using Project KickStart to help them plan and manage all types of public
works projects. Not only is Project KickStart easy to learn, but its low-cost
makes it easy for most government agencies to purchase without going through
a lengthy purchasing process. That means more projects initiated successfully
in less time. And that saves taxpayer dollars.
Staff members use their Project KickStart tasks as the basis for estimating budgets and tracking actual costs.
Fortunately, according to Walters, “I stumbled upon some tools that help with user participation,
especially during the critical initial-planning phase. A tool like Project
KickStart engages users in the important strategic visualization steps
and help identify risks and milestones. If given such responsibility
early in a project, the users contribute more and give more support to
the project manager.”
