Top Challenges

  • Complex portfolio management of numerus construction projects

Jacobs, a civil engineering firm, recently needed a solution to manage a strategic portfolio comprised of a large number of construction programs & projects for the Duval County School District. Their team needed a quick and simple solution to integrate a variety of teams across the portfolio and provide visibility & insights for the school district and senior leadership.

OnePlan stood out to Jacobs after evaluating many other project management tools due to its ability to meet their needs with an intuitive user experience.  Accelerated time to value was a critical advantage for OnePlan.  Jacobs benefited from a centralized solution to manage projects and programs in a quick and timely manner. OnePlan allowed Jacobs to easily generate automated reports using Microsoft Power BI, including project status, health, resource, and financial information. Jacobs will be looking to OnePlan in the future for upcoming challenges as they mature their strategic portfolio management methodologies.
