Case Study: Messe‑Pro delivers 12 World Cup press rooms on time with InLoox project management (Outlook‑integrated)

InLoox project management at the 2006 World Cup

Messe-Pro, a Wetzlar-based trade fair specialist, was selected to build press accommodation for print media in all 12 stadiums at the 2006 World Cup, deploying 160 specialists across Germany. Facing tight, changeable schedules and insufficient tools for communication, detailed planning, resource allocation and cost tracking, Messe-Pro chose InLoox and adopted the InLoox Workgroup Edition integrated with Microsoft Outlook to meet the challenge.

InLoox provided a project management and project-accounting solution that went live overnight, letting project managers record actual time, store documents, adjust plans and reallocate resources quickly while accountants billed activities precisely. The result: press rooms completed in all 12 stadiums on schedule, improved transparency, reliable schedules and prompt settlement, and the ability to scale—Messe-Pro added more InLoox clients by summer 2006.
