PetSafe® Brands is a leading innovator in the pet products industry, known for designing and manufacturing trusted solutions that help pet owners worldwide care for and connect with their pets. PetSafe offers a wide range of products, from training and containment systems to lifestyle and wellness innovations, serving customers through retail and direct-to-consumer channels.
PetSafe Brands chose OnePlan because it offered a flexible, scalable platform that was independent from Microsoft Project and easier to manage than their previous tools. PetSafe saw value in a solution that could be quickly configured, reduce costs, and adapt to evolving business needs while standardizing portfolio management across the PMO.
Before implementing OnePlan, PetSafe Brands struggled with inefficiencies stemming from its existing PPM setup. The system was overloaded with required fields, and without an administrator to simplify the configuration, project managers were burdened with unnecessary data entry. This led to inconsistent tool adoption, fragmented data spread across Microsoft Project Desktop and Online, and an incomplete portfolio view for the PMO. Additionally, looming compatibility issues between Microsoft Project and SharePoint posed risks to long-term stability, leaving the organization in need of a modern, flexible solution.
OnePlan delivered a portfolio management solution that gave PetSafe Brands the flexibility and independence it needed. The platform replaced reliance on Microsoft Project, reduced complexity, and offered easy configuration for administrators. With features that support multiple project types, resource visibility, and dashboards, the PMO gained the ability to manage projects more effectively and provide consistent, meaningful reporting across the organization.
