After appointing a new chancellor in 2015, the University of Texas System defined eight transformational Quantum Leap programs requiring coordinated execution across 14 institutions. Lacking project management processes and tools, the system implemented Planview Enterprise to standardize reporting, track milestones, and link projects to strategic outcomes. The platform enabled real-time visibility into status, risks, budgets, and resource utilization while supporting a team-of-teams operating model.
