Case Study: Imagine Optic achieves data-driven project management success with Planview ProjectAdvantage

Imagine Optic Making Data-Driven Decisions for “Common Sense” Project Management

Imagine Optic, a leading provider of wavefront metrology and adaptive optics solutions, was managing more than 50 diverse projects at once, but its project tracking had become fragmented and highly manual. With multiple project managers using different tools and no centralized planning, the company struggled with data duplication, reporting delays, and recurring overruns, prompting it to look for a more structured solution from Planview, using Planview ProjectAdvantage (formerly Sciforma).

Planview implemented a unified project and portfolio management platform that brought together planning, resource management, tracking, reporting, and capacity analysis. As a result, Imagine Optic gained better visibility into project risks and bottlenecks, could anticipate delays and notify stakeholders, and improved profitability analysis and reporting for tax credits and subsidies. The change also made decision-making more data-driven and streamlined collaboration across teams, with Planview helping support a later upgrade to version 7.1 for added capabilities.
