BI Project Management Software

Plan and Manage with Confidence When planning a new project, program managers can search past projects to leverage project assets and resources. With complete project and program management capabilities; and audited user security, Frogpoint will make sure the project starts and stays on track. Manage Project Tasks (includes Microsoft Project Integration) Frogpoint drives the execution of projects with project tasks. Tasks can be imported from Microsoft Project or created directly within Frogpoint to drive the workflow of a project. Manage Project Documents While any objects (e.g. a feature or a requirement) can have a document associated with it, Frogpoint also provides a centralized document repository for the project. This provides a place to store any documents that are relevant to the project. Track Issues Frogpoint provides an issue tracking tool to document project concerns with the ability to share them outside the team or mark them private. Track Bugs/Defects A bug tracking tool is included in Frogpoint that includes standard functionality. In addition, these bugs can be tied to test plans and status reports and will show up on the user s to-do list. Produce Status Reports Team leads and project managers can automatically build status reports based on the tasks and issues in the system and automatically route those reports for review by the rest of the team.

Track All Aspects of your Project Your project has a lifecycle. Frogpoint will keep track of everything so nothing falls through the cracks. It is the data capture utility for your project, and the glue that holds it together. Prepare For and Document Interviews Most projects involve technical and business interviews to determine the requirements for your project initiative. Frogpoint enables the team to create questionnaire documents that they take with them to the interviews and then fully document everything that was captured in the interview. Track Requirements Requirements are captured and organized in Frogpoint where they can be tied back to specific interviews. Define and Organize Features System or project features are created to satisfy individual requirements. Features are the the result of distilling requirements into tangible functionality. Define and Organize your Deployment Release Most projects consist of iterations of functionality that are released into a production environment. Frogpoint s release manager will keep track of what is being put into production and the orgins of that functionality. Manage Testing When your project initiative is in development, it is inevitable that bugs will be found. Frogpoint enables the team to setup test plans and test cases, track their progress, and generate bugs as they occur.

Define and Develop Powerful analysis, development and testing tools that are completely integrated give users the ability to store and share project information while adhering to a proven methodology. Design and Inventory data sources / targets Frogpoint allows you to import your database definitions, or design them from scratch. Your organization will have the ability to track all details related to your databases and files including the type, status, and detailed descriptions of what the database is used for. Design source to target mappings When populating a data mart, data warehouse, or just propagating data to a different place in the organization, Frogpoint provides a single intuitive interface for mapping your data. Your project will no longer struggle with tracking down source to target mappings or trying to figure out how, for instance, sales $ were calculated. Design data flows When moving data from one place to another, there are multiple processing steps that occur. A strong data flow design is the best way to ensure that data movement is being performed correctly. Design report layouts and specifications - Frogpoint provides a rich HTML editor to not only mock-up reports, dashboards and other outputs, but also to design how end-users will eventually interact with this output.
