Case Study: LifeWay Christian Resources achieves standardized portfolio management and faster project prioritization with Planview

LifeWay - Customer Case Study

LifeWay Christian Resources, a nonprofit founded in 1891 that provides teaching materials and digital services to Southern Baptist churches in over 120 countries, needed to standardize IT and project processes across storefronts, publishing and mobile/web applications. Faced with siloed project views, limited nonprofit resources and the need for executive buy-in, LifeWay required a centralized way to prioritize investments, track budgets and manage application workloads.

By standardizing on Innotas (Planview) as a centralized PPM, integrating their application portfolio, automating data feeds for time tracking and status updates, and using real‑time dashboards and budget reports, LifeWay prioritized higher‑impact projects, improved resource efficiency and streamlined budget reconciliation. The PMO achieved rapid adoption with executive support, delivering clearer decision-making, increased customer success and measurable improvements in project value.
