“Adopting Project Online has allowed us to gain much deeper and more readily accessible insight into the health of our programs and projects. Considering the size and scale of our portfolio of change, which impacts every part of the university, this is a huge step forward.”

"All key pieces of information are structured in one place now, making it possible to control costs, manage risks and issues, and plan our resources. We are now resolving issues three times faster than before.”

"Using Microsoft Teams has connected our entire business—in Germany and around the world—just the way we imagined. Since the system was introduced, our employees have found it much easier to work across departments and countries."

"The Microsoft solution has brought the ability to pull everyone together into one synchronized system that allows for more transparent visibility into what folks are working on."

“A lot of people just weren’t sure where to go for project information because it was stored in different places. And tools were not seamless.”

“You’d have someone start a project in a tool and they would have to resubmit to create awareness of the effort. This would require extra time and rework. There was a lot of confusion.”

"A great advantage of Project Online is that senior management can get an updated report on each project and obtain a global view. Before, we invested considerable time and resources in creating reports, but now the process is quick and agile."

"With Microsoft Project, project and program managers focus on analyzing rather than handling data, making more informed decisions. Conservatively speaking, we’ve removed a week of non-productive time per month for the PMO, which means 25 percent more efficiency in our people."

"Microsoft Project is brilliant for reporting. In fact, we’ve changed the format for project board meetings, viewing data from Microsoft Project in real time. Now, rather than questioning the accuracy of data and moving it from one system to the other, we confidently focus on using it productively."

“Without our data transferring in real time to the overall project portfolio, decisions for critical projects could be delayed.”

"We use Microsoft Project for faster, better decision making, at 10 percent greater overall project management efficiency. With the previous tool, we couldn’t have delivered the current £100 million in capital projects. Our project teams deliver larger, more complex infrastructure projects now that we have the right tool—Project."

"Scientists love driving knowledge, learning new things. Most hate doing admin stuff."

“Our former product management system was no longer able to cope with the complexity of a global product pipeline. We simply had to invest in a future-proof project management solution."

“Data is one of the vital assets of any car company. We probably create more data now in a year than the company generated in the previous 103 years."

"The IT tools we choose for employees have to deliver a sustainable return on investment. At Aston Martin, we’re using Microsoft cloud technologies, including Office 365, to help navigate the road ahead."
