Case Study: Kaplan achieves enterprise-wide project visibility and smarter resource planning with Daptiv PPM

Daptiv Makes the Grade for PPM as Kaplan Inc. Gains Business Insight and Transparency

Kaplan, a global provider of education and career services, centralized its IT organization to support multiple business units and quickly ran into a visibility problem: project requests were evaluated in silos, making it hard to prioritize investments, understand resource capacity, or see which initiatives aligned with corporate strategy. Leadership needed earlier insight into investment candidates and a consistent way to assess demand across the enterprise.

Kaplan worked with Daptiv to extend their existing PPM deployment to include intake and investment‑candidate phases, creating a single source of truth for the full project lifecycle. The solution delivered real‑time portfolio visibility, push‑button promotion of approved candidates to projects, better capacity and cost planning, faster adoption of best practices, and clearer ROI tracking — enabling more confident, strategic investment decisions across the company.
