With Meisterplan, we are able to implement our internal strategic projects with less than 10% deviation from the planned schedule.
The flow of our projects is highly dynamic, and Meisterplans' Scenario Modeling has greatly enhanced our ability to manage the swings whether upward or downward.
The key quantifiable difference since we started using Meisterplan is that planning horizon has moved immediately from short term to long term, from 3 months to 18 months. And that creates more efficient communication, and better and more logical decision making.
Before working with Meisterplan, we consistently underestimated the people resources needed to achieve project outcomes. This made it difficult to set realistic timelines and complicated our planning efforts. Thanks to Meisterplan's expertise and support, we're now better positioned to plan with confidence and deliver results.

Meisterplan gives me an overview of our global IT project landscape. A step-by-step implementation enabled us to cope with the complexity of our project portfolio. When setting up our PMO, we oriented ourselves strongly towards Lean PPM.
