Multi-project management

Effective multi-project management requires clear objectives that are in line with the corporate culture. The criteria for prioritizing projects and the risks that may arise are particularly important here. All components of project management must be included in order to reduce any resistance in a targeted manner and enable cross-project controlling.

Avoiding bottlenecks is the central task

Central controlling is the be-all and end-all of successful multi-project management. By using various instruments, bottlenecks can be effectively avoided with regard to limited capacities and scarce resources. Multi-project management is indispensable for successfully planning and controlling the entire project landscape.
