Project & Portfolio Management Leader
Launches Industry’s First Turn-Key Business Intelligence Platform
for Improved Strategic Decision-Making
CA Technologies (NASDAQ:CA) today announced the newest release
of its CA Project and Portfolio Management (CA PPM) solution. CA
PPM is the first solution to provide critical management and
business insights from across the enterprise improving strategic
decision-making for agile businesses operating within the
increasingly competitive application economy.
“Successful business and technology leaders require management
insights across a number of disciplines. Unfortunately, these types
of insights are typically fragmented across a patchwork of
applications and desktop tools, making decision-making and trend
analysis difficult and slow,” said James Harvey, general manager,
IT Business Management, CA Technologies. “CA PPM’s new business
intelligence capability gives leaders and managers the insights
that support integrated thinking and decision making – resulting in
better business execution.”
CA PPM is available via the cloud or on-premise, and enables
companies of all sizes to prioritize strategic initiatives and
mobilize the right resources. It gives managers fast and easy
access to the critical project / initiative information needed to
collaborate and make on-the-go portfolio decisions. By facilitating
rapid and accurate decision-making, CA PPM helps ensure teams
execute on time and achieve goals within budget. CA PPM SaaS is
part of the CA Management Cloud, a portfolio of easy-to-use,
easy-to-own solutions that help organizations manage their
technology assets like a business.
Unlocking business intelligence and insight
The new release of CA PPM democratizes key data by introducing
the first and only integrated Business Intelligence capability for
PPM – synthesizing the Project, Product and Financial insights
organizations need to take action without sacrificing
performance.
According to Gartner, “organizations are simultaneously
demanding greater project collaboration capabilities to deal with
more challenging projects and improved portfolio analytics to
better manage portfolio risk.” *
CA PPM addresses this need by providing a built-in Data
Warehouse. Requiring no configuration or customization, it delivers
the first embedded PPM/Business Intelligence experience of its kind
– enabling business, strategy and IT teams to focus on informed
planning and disciplined execution of their portfolios.
“Helping our business leaders fully understand our project
portfolio, commitments and interdependencies, while leveraging
Microsoft Project and other familiar tools, were key considerations
in our PPM tool selection,” said Greg Miller, vice president, PMO,
CareFirst. “CA PPM helps us develop the insight we need into the
project portfolio, assists us in managing our projects in a highly
dynamic environment. It also helps us evaluate new initiatives and
spot resource bottlenecks or misalignment, and then quickly take
corrective action.”
Rapidly connecting people and process to drive profit
The speed of the application economy exposes a disconnect
between people, process and the tools they use. CA PPM solves
this by connecting business and IT teams with insights through the
most robust and fastest-performing PPM integration to Microsoft
Project.
Project leaders can also use one workspace to manage updates and
provide insights to business leaders through the Microsoft Project
integration. An exclusive field mapping capability gives governance
stakeholders the key financial, resource and project details in one
single plan. With the ability to scale from traditional ‘Waterfall’
to modern Scaled Agile Framework methodologies, only CA PPM
provides the breadth and visibility to connect strategy to
execution across the entire project and product portfolio.
Today’s announcement was made from Gartner PPM & IT
Governance Summit 2015 in Grapevine,
TX, where CA Technologies also announced it was positioned by
Gartner in the Leaders quadrant of the new “Magic Quadrant for IT
Project and Portfolio Management Software Applications, Worldwide.”
