The Frontier Project Tracker is designed to address the business requirements associated with the quotation, tracking, and ongoing management of large scale development projects. This type of project typically has multiple product releases planned over a time horizon, with each release being based on a standardized set of plans, options and product categories finalized and agreed upon during the bidding process. The Project Tracker is fully integrated with the Frontier® ERP System, leveraging Frontier ERP-based customer, product, configuration, cost and pricing data, as well as automatically generating sales orders to process product releases. The Financial aspects of contract management and contract billing have also been addressed within the Frontier Project Tracker.
