Step into a world where project management is synonymous with precision and ease. VPL® is a state-of-the-art Project Management System, expertly crafted to streamline project execution. Developed by LEQM with deep insights from decades of project management experience, VPL® stands as a beacon of precision and reliability in the complex world of project management.
Late changes in product development projects are a well-known problem. In addition to the high costs, there is a risk of delayed launch, quality defects and recalls. A major reason for this is that the plans for parts/tools, verifications and issues are often managed in different systems and you therefore easily lose control of the project. Instead of having to work in multiple systems and spend lot of time getting control of the project, you will with VPL® have full control of all plans in one and the same system. Part/tool plans are linked to verification plans and issues to ensure that the activities can be planned logically in relation to each other. The plans and their status can be visualized in one view, which means that you will immediately see the consequences of any delays and can quickly replan to maintain the logic.
An important factor for successful projects is to create a technical logical plan as early as possible. In VPL®, part plans are linked with verification plans to ensure that the activities can be planned logically in relation to each other. By doing this, you will immediately see the consequences of any delays and can quickly reschedule to maintain the logic. The plans can be saved for download in future projects, either in VPL Ai Lite® or directly in VPL®. Once downloaded, the activities will be planned logically and aligned with the current project plan.
LEQM/VPL® analyzes plans and status for all hardware, software, issues and verifications and automatically creates status and risk reports per project area. The reports are available to all users and visualize today's status and planned status at project gates together with identified risks. The reports can be subscribed to via email at any frequency, you do not need to have access to the application to receive these reports.
