Case Study: Burgbad GmbH achieves streamlined, transparent product development with Planview ProjectPlace

Bathroom furniture production with Projectplace

Burgbad GmbH, a growing German bathroom furniture manufacturer, struggled with fragmented product development as more internal teams and external contributors became involved, creating a need for centralized document access, clearer communication and reliable task assignment. To solve this, Burgbad chose Planview ProjectPlace as a web-based collaboration and project-management platform (including kanban boards and document management).

Planview ProjectPlace was implemented to provide kanban-style task boards, centralized document sharing, and simple drag‑and‑drop assignment, which users adopted quickly and improved transparency and team morale. The deployment led to measurable benefits: an internal survey found 80% of staff reported improved collaboration and transparency and 60% called the kanban approach particularly goal-oriented; projects progressed faster, workload handovers became smoother, and partners gained earlier, clearer product status information.
