The Project
This leader in logistics and transportation services was in the process of migrating their Clarity PPM from a hosted to an on-premise installation. Suddenly they were faced with the challenge of keeping a new enterprise system up and running, while also tending the day-to-day operations of project and portfolio management. Having neither the bandwidth nor in-house skill set to do so, they called Winmill Software.
Winmill provided PPM Managed Services to support daily system monitoring, development of procedures for handling issues, consulting on improvements, and creation of a Roadmap to establish both short-term operational objectives and long-term strategic initiatives to be supported by Clarity PPM.
