Plan less, Get more, the new way in multi project management

It is a myth that in order to get good priorities and load graphs in a multi project environment you have to create a detailed project plan and actualize the Gantt frequently.
GLOW Management has done a lot of research in multi project environments and found out that the dominant way of doing project planning is not sufficient anymore and extremely labor intensive.
We turned it around. Our main goal was to develop a planning method for a multi project environment which would deliver the best priorities for tasks and actualized load graphs for all resources, with less effort.
With FLOW MPM we are able to do that. You just have to create a project network. It is sufficient enough to connect summaries with milestones (instead of all tasks). Secondly, you do not need to put task bars on the right spot in your planning. FLOW MPM is very sophisticated software that creates a Gantt automatically based on the network and buffer time. You don’t have to input and maintain a lot of parameters to run FLOW MPM. We dislike parameters but love agility.
A project manager in heavy machine building said: ”I do not need a planner anymore. Together with my team we created a network. During the project, FLOW MPM gives me the right priorities and actualized load graphs over all projects. We only have to update the remaining work. FLOW gives much better information and insight, resulting in high reliability, more speed and efficiency. It also saved me a planner. We plan less and get more”.
