WinGD Ltd. is a leading developer of low-speed engines and sustainable energy solutions used in marine propulsion systems, headquartered in Winterthur, Switzerland. With a global reach and focus on innovation, WinGD supports cleaner, more efficient maritime transportation through advanced engine technology and digital solutions.
WinGD selected OnePlan after a thorough benchmarking process of project management tools. OnePlan stood out due to its cost-effectiveness, user-friendly interface, and strong integration with Microsoft technologies. The support from the OnePlan team—both technical and strategic—was a critical differentiator. The implementation team was responsive, receptive to feedback, and instrumental in helping WinGD scale usage across departments and geographies.
Before adopting OnePlan, WinGD was challenged with a legacy project management tool, Teamwork, that was mainly used to meet mandatory timesheet requirements. The tool lacked engagement and functionality for true portfolio management. Projects often had no assigned owners, resulting in unstructured and unreliable data. The PMO lacked the ability to manage resources, track progress, or derive actionable insights. A more comprehensive and intuitive solution was needed to modernize their project management approach, improve visibility, and standardize practices across locations.
WinGD implemented OnePlan as part of a strategic initiative to overhaul its project portfolio and drive maturity within the PMO. With full support from the OnePlan team, the organization cleaned and restructured its project data, assigned project managers to every plan, and introduced resource and portfolio planning practices. OnePlan also enabled centralized OKR tracking, and significantly improving quarterly reporting and alignment with strategic objectives. The tool has since expanded to other departments and locations, supported by internal training and continuous improvement.
