DevPlan is an integrated project planning and management tool designed for Application Lifecycle Management. DevPlan's unique framework unites project tracking with issue and resource management through its integration with  DevTrack. This innovative combination provides managers a much clearer view of the planning process, allowing for greater insights to be derived from project data. DevPlan also incorporates configurable workflows, notifications, meeting requests, and process automation. DevPlan is the ideal tool to meet the ever-changing complexities of modern project management.

As the planning piece of knowledge-centric application lifecycle management,  DevPlan manages knowledge items such as design document and specifications at the planning level and features event management for team meetings and presentations.

Common project management features such as Gantt charts, resource scheduling, baseline comparisons, and reporting are just some of the many industry-compliance features that are available with DevPlan. Issue tracking-integration and knowledge management enables DevPlan to encompass the complete ALM process from concept through delivery.

Key Features of DevPlan

• Industry-Standards Compliance: support for industry-standard features minimize training time and make the most out of current investments.

  • Gantt charts

  • Resource scheduling

  • Event calendar

• Integrated Issue Tracking: DevPlan harnesses the power of DevTrack, already used by thousands of customers, to track project tasks. By separating the high-level planning from tactical execution functions, DevPlan allows for management to drive the project while being agile in their response to issues.

• Integrated Knowledge Base: Keep your data synchronized within a searchable knowledge framework. DevPlan leverages your intellectual assets, communicating a clear vision by linking specifications, requirements, designs, prototypes, and other documents to an area of the project. These documents are then communicated to all resources involved in the execution of the project. This allows for an uncompromised vision to direct the path of the development.

• Promote teamwork and collaboration: Project managers, team members, and other stakeholders or partners can access the living project plan over an intranet, extranet, or the Internet. DevPlan is built on a secure web-services model.

• Built-in reports and analysis: DevPlan's reporting engine serves as project planning command-center. Reports allow project management to quickly identify and mitigate risks, before they have a chance to affect the project. The reporting also features powerful historical analysis, enabling a company to learn from past projects.
