Do you like MS Project for your needs? If you do not, read on.

ActionProgram Manager works. The CIO at one of our clients said:

“APM is the only PM system that I’ve ever seen work. It takes 18 months to get an program management system working within an organization. All of the other systems I’ve ever used require that everyone know everything up front and they just can’t. APM is really easy to use, dirt-simple, and it’s built on Remedy so my people can customize it to fit within my organization. It’s really great.”

Like all PRI products, ActionProgram Manager (APM):

 Runs on Remedy's Action Request System.
 Is installed in less than 1 hour on your existing Remedy server(s).
  Leverages your investment in Remedy.
  Is very flexible.
  Involves no integration project.
  Can be used as a standalone application or can Interface with other AR System-based applications such as your help desk application, a change management application, asset management, and our IT Project Portfolio Manager.

APM is the only program management, resource management and time and expense tracking system written with a workflow engine.

APM is:

 An enterprise-wide approach to program management, resource management, and time and expense tracking.
 Includes a 3-phase life cycle: planning phase, working phase, reviewing phase.
 Users enter their time against the tasks they are working. The result is the detail necessary for charging back IT costs to user departments.
  Robust yet very easy to use.
  Used for both application development and operations projects.
 Includes excellent charts and reports.
  Includes a robust interface with MS Project.
 Includes PRI’s Approval Engine at no additional cost.
 Includes full-function Critical Path Method calculator.
  Includes it’s own Change Approval application for task changes.
 Tracks 10 dates for each task and 6 dates for each project.
  Allows users to view any combination of projects on a single Gantt chart.
  Allows users to have as many levels of tasks and sub-tasks as you would like.
 Out-of-the-box, the baseline plan is frozen.
