The Project Control System (PCS) is a project information repository.
The purpose of the PCS is twofold:
The PCS provides an official information source for schedule, cost,
risk, contract data requirements list (CDRL) items, and milestone
information to be used by the total integrated product/process team (IPT)
including the project management office (PMO),
contractor/subcontractor, and customer.
The PCS provides easily readable graphics charts that are connected to
the actual data files. The PCS information was designed to be
Internet/Intranet capable. Viewing it requires only a Internet Browser
and Acrobat Reader software. The PCS is “read only”, therefore,
there is no risk of data corruption by the viewer. The information
viewed in the PCS is updated various ways.
