Smarter Launch Pad
Smarter Launch Pad
Remove the headache of manually setting up multiple project assets every time a new project is required.
Why is manually setting up Projects a headache?
- Every time a new Project is requested, someone needs to set up the assets.
- Typically these are a combination of a Gannt Sheet, a RAID log, a Charter and a Dashboard for visibility.
- They all need naming (consistently)
- They all need linking to tracker sheets / dashboard metrics
- Setting these up manually requires time, concentration and a keen eye for detail and a dedicated administrator
What automation does Smarter Launch Pad bring?
- Creating and naming the sheets, reports and dashboards using Project specific data
- Linking project data from the tracking sheet into the newly created assets
- Linking top level metrics %Complete, Status, RAG ball health etc to your tracking sheet for progress visibility
- Creating hyperlinks to the assets for quick navigation
What are the benefits of using Smarter Launch Pad?
- Assets are creating in less than a minute, saving valuable time for your PM’s
