Supplier integration with RPlan Cross Company Planning (CCP)


Successful project management does not stop at corporate boundaries. By using RPlan Cross Company Planning (CCP) to integrate suppliers you generate end-to-end transparency in the product development process, shorten development times and drive down costs.

CCP is an integral part of the RPlan Schedule Manager module. The collaborative project management methodology supports uniform, end-to-end schedule management in cross-company planning networks. Relevant data is securely exchanged and automatically integrated into the planning environment of your development partners. Consequently, all project members always have current planning information at the touch of a button. Potential delays are identified immediately so that countermeasures can be taken in good time.
