Top Challenges
Disparate & disconnected project management tools, lack of clear structure in project information, and unclear prioritization, as the company aimed to align its digital transformation journey with strategic goals across different regions.
Among various solutions available, OnePlan emerged as the preferred choice for Diversus Health due to several key factors:
Flexibility: OnePlan offered the flexibility to accommodate different project management methodologies, including waterfall, agile, and Six Sigma.
Integration: As a Microsoft shop, the seamless integration of OnePlan with Teams, Power Apps, and Power BI was crucial for Diversus Health’s existing infrastructure
Simplicity: The clarity provided by OnePlan’s OKR (Objectives and Key Results) framework simplified strategic planning and measurement for all levels of the organization.
