# The GovCon COVID-19 Project Management Challenge

Written by: [AtWork](https://www.atworksys.com/blog/author/atwork)

The Top 5 Technology Requirements for Delivering Distributed Project Management for your Government Contracts

COVID-19’s social distancing requirements have forced project managers to find creative and efficient approaches to working with distributed workers, contractors, and clients on their Government contracts. Simply giving everyone video-conferencing tools like Zoom, Team, and Skype isn’t sufficient. Project managers must learn how to leverage technologies that will help them manage the wide range of resources that contribute to delivering project outcomes, performing back-office transactions, updating status, and reporting costs incurred.

There are 5 key must-haves that contribute to project success:

- Controlled and secured role-based access to the Project Management System (PMS) is required to update and view projects status, and to approve project changes.
- Integration of the distributed employees, 1099’s, contractors and clients into a unified project management workflow process.
- Integrated document management that provides secured and controlled access to critical up-to-date documents for authorized stakeholders.
- Efficient team collaboration using a variety of chat/voice/video and correspondence tracking solutions that are aligned with the situational demands of each communication event.
- Optimally aligning and integrating the project’s supporting HR, Procurement, and Accounting related activities.
