Project Oversight and Adaptive Forecasting for Predicting and Achieving Project Success in Real Time

When software projects veer off track or change in scope, can you easily forecast new schedules and budgets? Are you frustrated by cost and schedule overruns on software projects your enterprise PPM system rated "low risk"? Do you need a better, more quantitative way to manage your outsourced vendor-developed projects?

QSM’s SLIM-Control helps your software projects stay on course like a GPS navigation system does for your car. Using statistical process control techniques, SLIM-Control compares project plans against project actuals—then generates a forecast to completion. It offers both built-in and user-defined metrics, as well as earned value charting and reporting.
