Case Study: McKesson manages 600+ complex projects with MatchWare MindView

MindView to Manage 600+ 50k - Multimillion Dollar Projects

McKesson, a major health care company, faced a significant challenge in managing its vast and complex IT project portfolio. With over 600 active projects ranging from $50,000 to multi-million dollars, their project managers needed a way to quickly break down large business requests, understand the underlying drivers, and identify technical requirements for accurate proposals. To address this, a project manager used MatchWare's MindView software to tackle a complex project involving the upgrade of a multi-location phone system.

Using MindView's mind-mapping capabilities, the project manager was able to document, break down, and understand the project's various drivers using a top-down approach. The software helped uncover key technical requirements, visualize interdependencies, and identify missing work, which led to a highly accurate project estimate. As a result of using MatchWare, the project was delivered precisely on time, met 100% of the requirements, was successfully implemented on the first attempt, and came in slightly under budget, making it the most successful project the manager had completed in five years at the company.
