Planview Hosts Annual Customer Conference on Portfolio and Resource Management

Planview® is hosting its 16th annual Horizons customer conference this week in Austin, Texas. More than 20 Planview customers – including University of Utah Health Care, CSM Bakery, NASCO, Zurich, and Flowserve – will deliver presentations about how they maximize opportunities with constrained resources, build plans with integrated strategy and execution, improve agility and collaboration, make better decisions using analytics and reporting, and increase capacity to innovate using Planview solutions.

New this year, attendees will learn about Projectplace, the online project collaboration offering Planview acquired in August 2014. Planview and Projectplace experts – as well as joint customers – will discuss how the combination advances portfolio and resource management. With one portfolio that spans structured traditional projects, unstructured collaborative projects and Agile projects, organizations can align all of their people, resources, and projects with business goals.
