The R&D group implemented a three-phase rollout of Planview PPM Pro to support its stage-gate new product development process. User-defined fields captured commitments and forecasts at each gate while calculated metrics compared planned versus actual effort. Real-time dashboards replaced manual reporting, delivering over 98 percent timesheet compliance and enabling proactive revenue-gap analysis.
