Business challenge

ACTech realized that project management efficiency has become very low as it is done in few levels. Using various unintegrated tools made it hard to understand the exact status of each work item and what is really need to be done in order to make the project built. In addition, all parties of cooperation have lost motivation to speed up work and provide better response time.
