Our client, one of the leading logistics automation companies stand for innovation, and quality to provide industry leading software and robotics solutions. The company has a workforce of more than 2,400 employees spread across 20 locations worldwide. 

They were using Planisware- a leading digital PPM tool to manage their resource capacity and allocations. The resource managers within projects were manually reviewing and adjusting resource allocations project by project. This was tedious and time-consuming considering their massive development and production projects.

The client approached i2e to better utilize Planisware capabilities in simplifying the resource allocation process. The client wanted to give the resource managers a central view where they can check, edit and review the FTE allocations without the need to go through individual projects.

With years of Planisware optimization experience, team i2e designed an approached to streamline the resource management process using Planisware PEX reports.

Our solution simplified the process of calculating resource allocations by providing intuitive indicators. Resource managers had a centralized platform to manage all resources across multiple projects along with data restrictions for respective resource manager.
