Planforge’s new Gate Management Option bridges the gap between development processes and project planning by directly integrating support for process gates into project planning.
Gates are uniquely defined at the project pipeline stage level and can then be used in project templates and plans, complete with progress criteria and due dates. This integration ensures a seamless connection between process and project workflows.
Planforge simplifies gate management by using real-time project data to automate key processes:
Dynamic Maturity Calculations: Maturity levels per criterion are automatically derived from actual project progress at the work package level.
Decision-making: Maturity levels are consolidated based on weighted criteria, providing clarity for critical decisions.
Real-Time Target Tracking: Target dates for gates are automatically monitored using actual and estimated finish dates of linked work packages.
Planforge integrates a simple but powerful gate review process, enabling greater transparency and control.
Go/No-Go Decisions: Track decisions, gate revisions, and required measures in a revision-safe way.
Improved Transparency: Gain early warnings and more insightful KPIs.
New "Gates" Views: Access all gate-related information in dedicated views for single and multi-project planning.
Gate management today often involves significant manual work, as project plans are typically not integrated with process gates. This leads to inefficiencies and high administrative costs.
Planforge 25 transforms this process. By directly reusing actual project management data for monitoring and controlling process gates, we can save hours of work and significantly reduce administrative overhead.
Planforge helps teams make projects work, with access not only to idea management but also to a multitude of other powerful features. Check out how our project and portfolio management capabilities can help your business succeed.
