Why Bravo?

As a manager it is important and often a requirement to prepare activity reports, but doing so can be cumbersome. To subordinates this chore can take away from the very productivity that they are reporting on. For the person responsible for collecting the data, dealing with cutting and pasting and formatting issues is a continuous hassle. The highest compliment that we consistently get is that Bravo is so easy to use. Let’s face it, no one really likes doing activity reports, it has to be simple or people will not use it, and if that happens then the open communication within an organization is at risk of being stifled. Although simple on the surface, there really is a lot going on behind the scenes.

Bravo is designed to meet the specific needs of project-focused organizations that would like to:

• Know what’s going on
