Case Study: DPD GeoPost Service GmbH achieves project transparency and improved efficiency with Planview Projectplace

DPD GeoPost Service GmbH - Customer Case Study

DPD GeoPost Service GmbH, a leading B2B parcel carrier in Germany, faced inefficient, decentralised accounting and project collaboration across 75 branches and many external partners. Attempts to unify processes with a dedicated server, VPN and a complex commercial project tool failed due to firewall issues, cost and usability, leaving teams to rely on emails and Excel spreadsheets that caused version-control problems and high administrative overhead. Planview ProjectPlace’s Projectplace was brought in to address these challenges.

Planview ProjectPlace delivered a web-based Projectplace solution with central, versionable document storage, granular access rights, simple browser login for external partners, document locking and a shared project library. This increased transparency, prevented duplicated work, ensured current versions of documents, and supported assignments, resource planning and member administration. According to DPD GeoPost Service GmbH, Planview ProjectPlace led to fewer misunderstandings and delays and a measurable efficiency gain in project execution.
