The first go-live version already covers a powerful set of capabilities.
- Three tailored workspaces—for commercial projects, system development, and product development, with flexible data aggregation across organizations.
- Project homepages & portfolio overviews—relevant live data per project, aggregated into portfolio views for project and portfolio managers.
- Enterprise scheduling—a minimum scheduling template with export functions to manage road maps along the development lifecycle.
- Milestone change management workflow—committed milestones are changed on purpose, not by accident, via a structured change-request and approval process.
- Best-practice handbook—documented project management practices, linked to the cplace manual available online to all users.

The 12-month journey to go-live
One year ago we were part of the audience, not even able to imagine that we’d be on this stage a year later. Today we’re live with cplace and 300 users—full supervision for our trains and our projects.
