Case Study: UPS achieves aligned decision-making, funding and increased efficiency with Planview ProjectPlace

UPS Increases Efficiency, Aligns Decision-Making and Funding Across the Organization

UPS, a global logistics and transportation leader, faced rapid growth that strained its ability to govern investments, prioritize projects, and align funding across portfolios. Decision-making was fragmented across 28 committees and scattered in SharePoint sites, spreadsheets and homegrown tools, making it time-consuming to answer big-picture questions about project counts, spend and status. To address this, UPS partnered with Planview ProjectPlace as part of Planview’s Strategic Portfolio Management offering (including Planview® Portfolios and Planview® ProjectPlace).

Planview ProjectPlace consolidated UPS’s disparate tools, linked financial systems, and delivered near‑real‑time dashboards and scenario/capacity planning, creating a single source of truth for funding and resource decisions. The result: faster, more informed executive decision-making (no longer requiring calls to 100 people and dozens of spreadsheets), centralized funding approvals and clearer portfolio visibility — enabling UPS to align investments, improve governance, and drive greater efficiency across the enterprise.
