Which big brands use Microsoft Project?
Microsoft Project is an incredible tool for project managers to help streamline projects and manage resources and portfolios. Key features such as templates, timeline views, resource management tools and project reporting all help users execute their projects efficiently. Check out these success stories of two big brands who have implemented Microsoft Project Online for the better.
DJO Medical Devices
The company that produces medical devices and services has reduced time-to-market and lowered operation costs with enhanced project management using Microsoft Project Online. Having numerous internal business groups within DJO made it difficult for the company to ensure standardisation and visibility within its project portfolio. The company decided to implement Microsoft Project Online, and as a result has reduced operating costs, shortened delivery times and increased the strength of its development.
Hitachi
Hitachi Vantara, owned by Hitachi Ltd. offers products and solutions that help customers store and monetise their data to improve customer experience. The company decided to implement Microsoft Project Online to streamline and optimise its project portfolio management. They calculated that their annual projected cost avoidance for the year was at more than half a million dollars due to this change. 33 percent of that was due to reduced timesheet entry hours and 50 percent was from project portfolio status updates.
