Abstract
The present invention relates to a software system implemented on a standalone computer or over a network for coordinating the implementation of large projects. The new system is intuitive, relies on an organizational method and set of highly descriptive templates for the various activities, a two-axis dimensional sorting of commercial dimensions and project phases, the use of sub-groups for dimensions, and the storage and retrieval of current documents related to each activity. The system is designed for a broad or narrow overview of a large project, its different commercial dimensions and phases over time in association with initiatives and activities.
Claims20
A computer enabled software system for a prelaunch planning and execution of a project, the computer enabled software system comprising:
- at least a computer having a CPU for executing a software and a memory connected to the CPU for operating the software within the memory, the computer further including a computer interface and a display, the software programmed for generating a launch optimization of a project, the software including at least the following modules:
- a dimension generation module for the entry by a user of a plurality of dimensions each associated with the project;
- an evolution time or milestone phased module for the entry by the user of a plurality of project phases each associated with the project;
- a subtask module for the entry by the user of a plurality of initiatives each as sub-elements of a dimension entered in the dimension generation module, and for the entry by the user of a plurality of activities each as sub-elements of the plurality of initiatives;
- and
- a matrix and template module.
A method of use of a computer enabled software system for a prelaunch through launch planning and execution of a project, the method comprising the steps of:
- using at least a computer having a CPU for executing a software and a memory connected to the CPU for operating the software within the memory, the computer further including a computer interface and a display, the software programmed for generating a launch optimization of a project, for entry by a user in a dimension generation module a plurality of dimensions each associated with a project;
- entering in an evolution module a plurality of project phases each associated with the project;
- and
- entering in a subtask module a plurality of initiatives each as sub-elements of a dimension entered in the dimension generation module, and for the entry of a plurality of activities each as sub-elements of the plurality of initiatives, and wherein the entry is via a matrix and template module to facilitate entry of the initiatives and activities.
