Investing in projects comes with its share of risks like delays in project activities, cost overruns, and unforeseen changes in the project environment that often impact the performance of investments. Due to inadequate visibility into project data and progress, many investors struggle to assess the ongoing performance and success of their investments. This makes it difficult to detect early warning signs of potential issues that could escalate into real issues and problems for investors.
This is where project visibility becomes crucial. For investors, visibility would mean convenient access to reliable, structured, and consistent project data. It would allow them to see the status of the project and how it is progressing, whether project resources are being used as intended, and how well the project sponsor is performing. And this is where One Data plays a transformative role.
How One Data helps investors improve risk management
Many investors rely on periodic reports from project sponsors that can leave them unaware of certain potential risks until it’s too late. One Data therefore comes in as a solution that allows investors to have the additional project visibility that they need; helping them to have easy access to project information, documentation, milestones, and project updates, all in one place. This in turn aids smarter, faster, and more confident decision-making.
Here’s how One Data improves project visibility and helps manage investment risk:
- Informed decision-making: Investors using One Data can access ongoing project data and milestones before and after making investment decisions. This allows them to gauge a project’s feasibility, giving them clarity on whether or not to proceed with an investment.
- Review investment utilisation: One of the biggest concerns for investors is whether technical and financial resources are being used as intended. With One Data, investors are able to review investment utilisation to ensure that project resources are being used as planned. This thereby helps them manage and reduce uncertainty.
- Early detection of challenges: A lack of visibility often leads to changes in scope, project delays and cost overruns that could be avoided. By reviewing project activities and progress, investors can detect potential issues and take action before potential setbacks turn into major risks.
- Appraising project sponsors: The platform also gives investors access to data that can help them continuously assess the credibility, financial track record, and execution capability of the project sponsor— before committing capital.
