Portfolio Management Functional Coverage of the Complete Life Cycle Managing Costs Managing Contracts Management Functionality for Specialists and Executive staff in project oriented Organizations (1/2) The PPM Cloud Service covers the entire functional project life cycle from the compilation of the project portfolio to the project sales and operational controlling as well as post calculation. From a financial point of view cost estimation and budgeting, contract management and project billing for deliverables are supported. The service includes options for real-time collaboration in social networks. Sophisticated key performance indicator systems ensure transparency in project work. Costing Contracts Control The module for cost management is a comprehensive solution that includes highly automated and standardized processes for efficient and effective management of legal costs to the creation of a project balance sheet. The core functions allow a standardized assessment of project costs across different applications. The import and the processing of the process costs are standardized. Intelligent processing steps support users when making decisions. The module can be integrated with other applications such as financial accounting or purchasing. Costs may be considered apart from cost accounting. The integration of Microsoft Excel allows easy capturing of project costs. It provides a standardized output control and a centralized definition of the cost of personnel and other resources. Therefore, the module reduces staff time for project administration considerably. The Contracts module maps the entire contract lifecycle. This is done via templates to standardize the types of contracts. Using Contracts, all contractrelevant information can be saved, from the creation to termination of the contract. The information can be used flexibly in other modules and for project evaluations. Based on business rules, all contract-relevant activities can be automated: renewal and termination of contracts, customer contacts, activation and billing of project results. Here, the contract module works seamlessly with the other project modules and also with financial accounting using the corresponding interfaces. The module for project management supports the project management over the entire project, from project initiation through planning, the actual project management to budgeting and profit forecast. In addition, it offers direct integration with Microsoft and Primavera P6. All functionalities are designed to speed up the user's work, such as mass maintenance of tasks and resource assignments, drag & drop support, or one-click-budgeting with templates for project plans. In addition, it allows a transparent project progress including budget monitoring and exception handling. The result is a simplified and faster processe and a higher quality for results. 2014 PROMATIS software GmbH, Ettlingen (TechnologyRegion Karlsruhe), Germany 2
Portfolio Management Billing Performance- Management Seamlessly Integrated and Automated: Continuous PPM Business Processes Functionality for Specialists and Executive staff in project oriented Organizations (2/2) Billing Performance Reporting Integration Gateway The Billing module works seamlessly with the contracts module in which the conditions for settlement are defined. To that extent, the billing can be automated as well to a high degree. The result is improved project governance, a reduction of processing times and costs as well as the avoidance of incorrect calculations and services that are invoiced incorrectly, too late or not at all. External and internal investment projects are billed and if necessary, pro-forma invoices are issued. Also often quite interesting for many applications: the possibility to create taxation forecasts. This module provides project-oriented organizations visibility into project performance. Multidimensional views provide the basis for flexible evaluations that provide the answers to critical business questions and allow to react in real-time or to take precautionary actions. There are reports and dashboards to track key performance indicators (KPI), enabling a detailed analysis of the budget and on-time delivery with respect to the use of resources. Historical analysis, benchmarking and trend studies complete the functional range. The PPM Cloud Service has flexible interfaces to connect to external systems (financial or human resources systems, CRM, Supply Chain Management, etc.). In addition, the Integration Gateway can be connected via project management systems such as Primavera P6 or MS. Thus, users can perform their project tasks with the tool they feel most comfortable with. And the integrated project solution provides a "single source of project truth". 2014 PROMATIS software GmbH, Ettlingen (TechnologyRegion Karlsruhe), Germany 3
Portfolio Management Integration in a Service-oriented Architecture (SOA) Seamless Integration of Services and Applications Standard-based PROMATIS Process Integration Appliance Continuous Business Processes even across Corporate Borders Business Process Excellence with Enterprise Cloud Services requires continuous business processes also across company borders. It is necessary to integrate cloud services seamlessly into the business process to ensure functionally correct processing and data supply without media breaks. The PROMATIS Enterprise Cloud Services are equipped with Web service interfaces for this purpose. The result: openness for the integration in line with a service-oriented architecture. Especially in value-adding business processes, the business functionality lies not in a single cloud service, but extends across multiple services and enterprise applications. The quality and efficiency of the integration of the functionality components then becomes the decisive beneficial factor of the process. For the implementation of such business processes, PROMATIS recommends building a service-oriented architecture based on the Oracle SOA Suite. In addition to the Oracle Service Bus, the BPEL Process Manager is integrated with a powerful business rules engine and a variety of certified integration adaptors. Business Activity Monitoring and BPEL monitoring functions complete the product range. The PROMATIS Process Integration Appliance based on industry standards guarantees high productivity, even with complex integration requirements. It combines the Oracle SOA Suite with PROMATIS Best Practice reference models and services. Figure: PROMATIS Process Integration Appliance Integrating External Business Partners Driven by global networking and a changing consumer behavior, today s largest improvement potential lies in enterprise-wide process concepts and the provision of self-service functions. To tap this potential, efficient B2B integrations have to be realized. Here, PROMATIS also relies on a standards based integration with the components of the Oracle SOA Suite. The key to success is the B2B adapters that support industry standards such as EDI, UCCnet, RosettaNet, CIDX, PIGB, VICS, ebxml, and UBL. 2014 PROMATIS software GmbH, Ettlingen (TechnologyRegion Karlsruhe), Germany 4
