Lean Project Portfolio Management™
Build portfolios with the right people working on the most important projects at the best possible time.
Easily manage your project pipeline and stage gate processes from project initiation through to completion. With Meisterplan, you can assess whether a project realistically fits into your portfolio. When circumstances change, you can use scenario planning to see the impact of those changes not only for that specific project, but also how it impacts all of your resources, your financials and the project portfolio as a whole.

Resource Management
Know which people and skills are available when, so you can assign the right people to the right projects.
Quickly match the most qualified employees to the most important projects to maximize resource utilization. You will not only see when employees are overbooked, but you can resolve those over-allocations with scenario simulations. You can also simulate capacity changes using scenario planning to find out what happens if you add or remove internal or external capacity.
Get an accurate overview of employee skills, availability and capacity
Allocate staff by role, by skill or by individual to determine if you have the capacity to deliver
Simulate scheduling and project portfolio alternatives to immediately see the impact on resource utilization
Strategic Alignment and Project Prioritization
Ensure that the most important projects receive top priority and are aligned to corporate strategy.
With a simple drag and drop, you can match each project with a corresponding goal for a strategically balanced portfolio. Prioritize your projects directly in Meisterplan by simply ranking each project, dragging them into the desired order, or using the project scoring feature to generate a priority score. Resources are first assigned to the projects with the highest rank, so your key employees work on the top priority projects ensuring their success.

Use the Project Score feature to objectively evaluate the priority of projects

Track budgets and financials across your entire project portfolio.
Financial information like capital expenses, operating expenses, and project benefits are available at a glance. Not only can you easily identify your most profitable projects, but you can also ensure that your project portfolio is in line with your budgets. By using scenario planning, you can quickly simulate and observe how financial resources are impacted by changes to projects.
