Artemis ONTRACK

Project and Resource Management Simulation

The Challenge

Lacking practical management experience, project teams are often left to resolve problems never faced before, and business critical projects are put at risk while team members learn how to manage projects on the job. This risk is compounded by the fact that project success is largely dependent on human interactions, a frequently underestimated component of project and resource management. Leadership skills, decision-making abilities, effective communication and team-building are all essential factors in creating project success, in fact, these factors directly impact the measurable performance parameters of cost, time and quality, as well as team spirit and morale.

The Solution - Artemis ONTRACK

Artemis ONTRACK, a computer-based simulation workshop, trains project leaders and team members on both the hard and soft aspects of project and resource management. ONTRACK combines standard techniques of time, cost and quality management with the challenges of resolving the inherent complexities of human interaction. ONTRACK requires participants to make effective decisions against a background of constantly changing circumstances, while striving to achieve the overall project objectives.

Experience the reality of managing projects and people
Develop awareness of potential problems and conflicts
Understand the key factors for project success
Combine leadership skills and project management techniques
Acquire team-building and collective decision-making skills
Trade off between the time, cost and quality drivers
Evaluate your performance and justify the results

Although nothing replaces the authenticity of learning on the job, ONTRACK more closely simulates a real-world environment than any other project management training program. Participants learn that their actions are part of a complex system in which both standard management methods and ever-changing human factors play a critical role.

Artemis ONTRACK has been successfully used to train more than 6,000 project leaders in 13 countries, and is currently available in English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Japanese and Korean. The workshop can be structured and delivered to integrate your organization’s specific project management requirements. Additionally, you may acquire the ONTRACK simulator for use in the context of your internal training programs
