VirtECS® PlanIt is a project portfolio analysis package which provides powerful capabilities for portfolio optimization, simulation and risk assessment, and exploratory data analysis. VirtECS® PlanIt organizes the data you need to make informed decisions, simulates a large number of scenarios to mitigate uncertainty, and optimizes project selection in a manner guided by the analyst. VirtECS® PlanIt handles very detailed project plans and large pipelines with unrivaled speed and power.
VirtECS® PlanIt modules can be implemented at many levels in a project or pipeline and these different levels can be coordinated so strategic and tactical decisions are consistent. This system can be used with spreadsheets and commonly available project management software so that users can manage their data in a comfortable environment. VirtECS® PlanIt can be used for strategic planning and can take advantage of as much, or little, information as is available. VirtECS® PlanIt takes the guesswork out of the dizzying combination of decisions and allows management to focus on strategy and see its consequences in detail. The heart of VirtECS® PlanIt is an optimization engine that is powerful enough to manage thousands of tasks automatically.
Selection of projects for a portfolio is a difficult process due to uncertainty, lack
of good analytical tools, unclear metrics, and competing resources. VirtECS® PlanIt
addresses these difficulties head-on to help maximize the value of your portfolio.
Simple techniques are effective when there is only a single resource and single value metric with no competing strategic factors. Optimization subject to multiple resource constraints and non-financial
constraints pose a major challenge. The proprietary engine in VirtECS® PlanIt excels under these difficult conditions.
No one wants a set of equations to make their decisions for them. VirtECS® PlanIt was designed to leverage your unique business judgment by allowing you to impose your own decision, constraints and preferences, to provide strategically guided optimization. Let the powerful
automation of VirtECS® PlanIt provide insight to guide your key decisions.
Dealing with uncertainty is not an afterthought for VirtECS® PlanIt. It was designed from the start to let you manage technical & market uncertainty, as well as data which is less than perfect.
VirtECS® PlanIt uses proprietary VirtECS® Solver technology to provide analysis in ways no other software can.
