PLANISWARE CONSULTING

Planisware consulting from the customer side.

Successful Planisware environments require more than technically correct configuration. They need processes users will follow, information leaders can trust, workflows administrators can maintain, and an operating model that still works years after implementation.

AFTER GO-LIVE

We know what happens after implementation.

Over time, Planisware environments accumulate configuration, fields, reports, workflows, exceptions, and business requests. What began as a clean implementation can become difficult for users and expensive to maintain.

Velocity NPD helps determine what should be simplified, automated, standardized, or left flexible—and whether the information being collected is actually helping the organization make decisions.

CAPABILITIES

Improve the system and the operating model around it.

Configuration

Fields, lists, screens, workflows, business rules, project structures, functional configuration, and usability improvements.

Optimization

Assess configuration debt, simplify the user experience, eliminate redundant work, and improve maintainability.

Workflow & Automation

Use Planisware capabilities to reduce repetitive actions, manual routing, and administrative touchpoints.

Reporting & Portfolio Visibility

Improve the flow of project information into portfolio, pipeline, risk, and executive decision views.

Product Ownership

Establish platform governance, prioritize enhancements, manage demand, and maintain a coherent roadmap.

Implementation Advisory

Bring an experienced customer-side perspective to implementation, upgrade, redesign, and partner-led work.

A BROADER PERSPECTIVE

Experience beyond one implementation.

Nick Duncan's Planisware experience includes product ownership, co-leading a global implementation and Stage-Gate evolution, leading NPD best-practice collaboration, customer advisory leadership, and public Planisware speaking engagements.

That exposure provides visibility into how different organizations approach governance, resource management, portfolio management, automation, adoption, and platform evolution—without forcing another company's template onto your business.

“The question isn't only whether Planisware can do something. The better question is whether that configuration makes the operating model easier to run.”

COMMON QUESTIONS

Planisware consulting FAQs.

Do you only work on new Planisware implementations?

No. Much of the value is in improving environments that are already live—simplifying configuration, reducing administrative burden, fixing workflows, improving reporting, and establishing better platform governance.

Can you work alongside Planisware or another implementation partner?

Yes. Velocity NPD can provide customer-side functional leadership, requirements definition, design review, testing support, operating-model guidance, or ongoing product ownership alongside an existing partner.

Is Velocity NPD affiliated with Planisware?

No. Velocity NPD is an independent consultancy. The value proposition is specifically an experienced customer-side perspective combined with hands-on Planisware and NPD expertise.

Do you support Planisware Enterprise?

Planisware Enterprise is a core area of experience, especially for NPD, portfolio management, scheduling, Stage-Gate governance, reporting, and workflow automation.

Have a Planisware environment that should be working better?

Start with the friction your users, PMs, administrators, or leadership are experiencing.
