With 4,500 people employed, delivering more than 1.8 million
tons of freight and mail to 300 destinations globally, Lufthansa
Cargo AG depends on smooth workflows and logistics, not only in the
area of transportation, but equally with regard to project
management.
In order to meet these challenges, Lufthansa Cargo AG needed a
holistic project and portfolio management (PPM) application that
would unify and consolidate all project information in one place.
The solution also needed to provide resource management so that
Lufthansa Cargo AG could balance capacity with demand, financial
management to capture costs and all project transactions, and
portfolio management to ensure that strategic investments are
aligned to corporate goals.
After an in depth evaluation process, it became clear that
Lufthansa Cargo AG required all of these functionalities to be
present in a single solution to provide consistent access to all of
the data essential for informed decision making.
"CA Clarity PPM was chosen over other providers particularly on
the strength of its plenitude of functionality, its high-quality
configuration options, and its flexibility," commented Wolfram Martin, Head of Controlling Cross
Functions Lufthansa Cargo AG.
CA Clarity PPM will replace a number of heterogeneous
applications at Lufthansa Cargo AG. With the implementation of CA
Clarity PPM, it will enable Lufthansa Cargo AG to record
everything in a single system, eliminating the need for application
integration and speeding up the entire process significantly.
