Understanding Projects in their Entirety

It is in the vital interest of every company to make sure that the most important projects are executed successfully. However, projects are commonly run as isolated entities, making it very difficult to support essential cross-project management level decisions. Enterprise Project Portfolio Management (EPPM) provides consistent project information by establishing a common data repository that is efficiently accessible to all stakeholders and integrable with other enterprise level systems. Projects become visible and can get appropriate attention at every level of the company.

Share Project Data - Execute More Efficiently

The role of the project manager is to coordinate all parties involved in the project. Splitting up a project's scope into manageable pieces is an effective way to delegate responsibility and get teams, suppliers and decision makers actively involved in the planning as well as execution of the projects. Our offering includes centralised data storage and decentralised data access solutions enabling project organisations to cooperate seamlessly whatever the given needs are. [more]

Manage Time

Being forced to buy back time that was lost due to missing or insufficient control in early stages of the project is one of the most common situations project managers have to face towards the end of their projects. Solving problems where and when they happen in the project is usually the cheapest way to recover from unexpected impacts. A combination of project partitioning with dedicated owners and layers of high level coordination done by the project manager as well as responsible project stakeholders is the best approach to keep control and specifically prevent delays caused by the lack of  proper and timely counteractions. We help to not only identify what is going wrong but also establish organisational structures that support all involved parties to keep projects on track. [more]

Manage Cost

In many industries typical projects can not easily be described in terms of time. This is where cost becomes the primary aspect for planning and control. We offer solutions that can be used both as an integral part of an overall EPPM setup as well as a standalone system with integrated resource management. More specific techniques such as Earned Value Management can additionally be implemented easily at the desired level. [more]

Manage Resources

Planning projects without considering resource limitations can lead to substantially incorrect results. Therefore, it is simply not feasible in some project environments to plan without considering resource availability. In addition, Resource Management requires the line organisation that own’s the resources to be actively involved in the management processes. This of course adds a new data stream with considerable volume and complexity but it properly represents the concept of a matrix organisation and it can lead to excellent results through a combined accountability and target orientation of the workforce.
