Key Takeaways

  • Resistance to Change: Corporations often resist major changes to project and portfolio management systems due to deeply ingrained practices and lack of immediate benefits.

  • Continuous Improvement: Incremental, well-managed improvements are preferable to disruptive changes, facilitating gradual adoption of new best practices and technologies.

  • Platinum DB Solution: Platinum DB’s Rapid Deployment Solution using SAP’s BPC and PPM aims to provide a structured roadmap for evolving project planning processes and embracing new technologies.

Corporations across the full spectrum of industries have been planning and executing projects since their founding. Across the passage of time methodologies and processes mature, tools are introduced and enhanced, knowledge is acquired and shared, practices (both good and bad) become ingrained into the corporate culture. For many of these businesses anything greater than a minor change to the status quo presents a major challenge, especially if the change is not sponsored by Senior Management and the benefits are not readily identifiable and quantifiable by those impacted.

Most would agree that evolution is preferable to revolution; where continuous improvement is institutionalized and where incremental value is introduced and adopted along a well-planned and managed roadmap. This premise was the primary driver for the creation of the Platinum DB Rapid Deployment Solution for Enterprise Project Planning using BPC and PPM.
