Details

Dynamics Project Management actively supports you with multi-project and program management. The global resource availability is, continuously updated, shown in the company-wide resource utilization. Dynamics Project Management automatically accesses the required basic information, from individual projects, and creates a 'big picture'.

The company-wide Gantt chart offers a clear overview of all current and planned projects. Dynamics Project Management offers various filters as well as the ability to directly drill-down in concrete projects.

Additionally, it’s possible to create forecast reports which give you an idea of what the upcoming months will be like, based on the current status of the project.
