Before implementing OnePlan, Vlad and his IT team faced inefficiencies due to a lack of a centralized plan of record, making it difficult to track IT initiatives, allocate resources, and prioritize projects effectively. An ingrained culture of saying “yes” to every business request without structured prioritization led to inconsistent project tracking and misalignment with business goals. Previously, the team relied on multiple disconnected tools, manual PowerPoint reports, and Microsoft Project, which lacked integration and ease of use. These fragmented systems created data silos, limiting visibility and strategic execution. Inconsistent project tracking and reporting resulted in inefficiencies in planning and execution.
With OnePlan, OSI System’s organization has transformed the way IT operates—moving from fragmented project management to a strategic, data-driven approach that aligns IT initiatives with business success. IT shifted from reactive task management to proactive project prioritization and execution, positioning the department as a strategic partner within the organization, rather than just a service provider. The team first established core data structures and tracking standards, followed by data standardization to maintain consistency across projects. Next, they leveraged OnePlan to map IT projects to strategic objectives, enabling better prioritization. The solution has provided greater adoption across teams, even “accidental” managers are successfully leveraging OnePlan for structured project execution. Power BI dashboards were integrated to provide real-time reporting and executive visibility. Finally, a cultural shift was introduced, replacing an unstructured request process with a strategic prioritization framework that emphasized “not now” instead of “yes” to all requests.
