Case Study: Leading Medical Device Manufacturing Company achieves faster time-to-market and optimized resource utilization with Planview PPM Pro

Leading Medical Device Manufacturer Advances Portfolio Management Practices and Resource Utilization

A global medical device manufacturer with roughly 20,000 employees faced slowing time-to-value after a major acquisition flooded its project pipeline and strained limited resources. The PMO, which manages the portfolio as a financial investment, needed an objective way to prioritize projects early, reduce simultaneous execution bottlenecks, and ensure resources were focused on the highest-value opportunities.

The company implemented Planview PPM Pro as a single source of truth, using automated scoring, scenario planning, and customized dashboards to remove bias and align decisions with capacity and ROI. With capacity-and-demand reporting and predictive “what-if” analytics, the PMO now staggers execution to avoid bottlenecks, uncovers resource constraints, automates status reporting, and improves portfolio visibility—enabling faster, more data-driven delivery of high-value projects.
