Matrix organisation

By respecting both the hierarchical structure of project assemblies (Work breakdown Structure) and the hierarchy of your organisation (Organisation Breakdown Structure), StakePoint applies a matrix type organisation over your projects.

Within this structure, resources are organised within the organisation breakdown (OBS) and milestones are organised with the work breakdown (WBS), tasks are attached to both. This breakdown along different axes allows you to combine, analyse and browse efficiently throughout your portfolio of projects and processes.

Risk analysis and decision making.

S-Curves

S-Curves are the basis for anticipation and decision making within project portfolio management. By making it very simple to browse through the different breakdown structures, it becomes easy to spot potential risks and to anticipate the right decisions.

Milestones

In StakePoint projects can be managed though milestones which are part of a separate associative network. They are the bridge between different projects and allow you to better understand the relationships and interactions between different subjects. Tasks are planned in-between milestone constraints to define margins (early and late execution dates) as shown on the Gantt.

Managing delays:

When a schedule is difficult to keep up with, one of the solutions to reduce delay is to assure that all team members work in the best order to respect project milestones. It is at these moments that managers need to find solutions to reschedule tasks in order to respect contractual deadlines. Not only does StakePoint allow this co-activity during planning modifications, it also knows how to show outstanding work in the order of the critical path.

Project history

Every task tracks its own history of events. You can add remarks, e-mails and files to tasks in order to complete project history and help you manage the engagements of resources.

Ressource Management

Ressources are tracked down with calendring.

And workload is followed up.
