Case Study: VLI saves USD65,000 annually and gains real-time project-portfolio visibility with Microsoft Project Online

Logistics company uses cloud-based project management solution to save USD65,000 annually and gain business insights

VLI, a Brazilian logistics company that operates railways, ports and intermodal terminals, needed better collaboration and unified reporting to support aggressive growth (a planned 47% increase in transport volume by 2024). To break down siloed data and improve portfolio visibility, VLI deployed Microsoft Project Online as part of Microsoft Project’s cloud project-management offerings.

Working with partner IUNEX, VLI standardized metrics, created SharePoint project sites and used Power BI dashboards alongside Microsoft Project Online to get real‑time, drill‑down views of every project. The solution eliminated lengthy manual reporting, improved risk analysis and portfolio oversight, and delivered measurable savings of more than USD65,000 annually in licensing and server costs.
