Networked project schedule management - secure control of complex projects

Do you plan complex projects with multiple dependencies, across interdisciplinary teams and under high deadline and cost pressure? Without precise, traceable milestone synchronisation across the entire planning landscape, there is a risk of delays, inefficiencies and rising costs. With networked project schedule management (vPTM), you can create transparency in both traditional and hybrid project management. Critical dependencies become visible at an early stage, for reliable control and greater schedule reliability across teams, systems and sub-projects.

Efficient planning & control of networked projects

Networked project schedule management - compactly explained

  • Linking of Planning Levels: Networked project scheduling management links various planning levels by passing down predefined deadlines from higher-level plans to more detailed lower-level plans. At the same time, it aggregates actual implementation dates from lower levels back up to the higher levels.
    → This ensures that all planning levels are consistently up to date.
  • Schedule Subscriptions: All plans remain continuously synchronized by subscribing to shared key deadlines.
    → This guarantees a current and coherent overall project schedule.
  • Visualization: Dependencies and comparisons between planned and actual progress are visualized across all levels in a connected and transparent way.
    → This leads to greater transparency and improved project control.
  • Generic Planning Structures: Generic planning templates with clearly defined responsibilities are continuously maintained and updated.
    → This results in higher planning quality and faster planning processes.


The Use of Methods and Tools

  • In addition to a tailored methodology, the use of an appropriate tool is essential for effective networked project scheduling management.
  • A variety of project management solutions with the necessary range of functions may be suitable for this purpose.
  • The optimal tool for your specific needs can be identified during the development of a vPTM architecture.


Who Benefits from This Approach?

  • Large and medium-sized enterprises that implement complex initiatives involving collaboration across multiple departments or teams. 
  • In particular: large-scale projects that require a high degree of planning reliability and involve numerous interdependencies between sub-projects, milestones, and other scheduling elements.
  • Examples: Industries such as manufacturing (especially the automotive sector), construction, and software development.
