"Our mid-tier PPM offering has evolved to become Planview PPM Pro because of Planview’s established leadership in the market, addressing the need for broader solutions extending PPM capabilities that advance the PMO’s journey," said Patrick Tickle, Planview chief product officer. "Organizations need a clear path to successfully advance from one phase of maturity to the next, and Planview PPM Pro makes it possible for these PMOs to seamlessly centralize, prioritize, manage demand, and execute projects, while aligning to strategic objectives."

Customers spanning various industries and sizes participate in shaping the Planview PPM Pro product roadmap through the Planview Inner Circle program. This customer-driven approach is core to defining Planview’s comprehensive work and resource management solutions, which enable organizations to focus resources on the work that delivers innovative products, services, and customer experiences.

"We recognize the value that Planview PPM Pro has made to our company culture and using it daily within our organization has allowed us to move away from spreadsheets, deliver successful projects, and it ultimately enables us to deliver on our strategy here at Etihad," said Johnathan Parker, manager corporate programs and projects, Etihad Airways. "We share dashboards in executive level meetings and use the data as the single point of truth for all of our portfolio outputs."

Planview PPM Pro enhancements include:

• A phased-approach implementation that aligns product configuration to customer requirements based on the maturity of their PMO. With new Planview^® FastTrack implementation packages and best practices developed in partnership with domain experts, organizations can quickly implement the right capability profiles that support centralization of projects, standardization, and project portfolio governance, ultimately having the ability to optimize resource utilization and prioritize strategic work.
• Plus Mode, a best-in-class PPM timesheet combined with intuitive workspaces gives team members a place to plan work, execute tasks with Kanban boards, share documents, and collaborate. PMOs capture valuable resource information for improved capacity planning, prioritization of demand, and financial tracking, resulting in successful project delivery.
• A spreadsheet interaction experience that provides a familiar interface for project managers and PMO leaders to seamlessly transition from disparate project management or productivity tools, enabling centralization of projects and faster time-to-value.
• Expanded reporting capabilities with robust support for OData, empowering stakeholders to make data-driven decisions. Data now seamlessly feeds into the market-leading business intelligence tool of an organization’s choice, such as Microsoft^® Power BI.
