Before Celoxis
The struggle with Microsoft Project & ProjectManager.com
NKI's journey in project management started with its own system, then moved to Microsoft Project, and later to ProjectManager.com — each step aimed at improving cost efficiency and functionality, but each new system brought its own challenges.
When Tomasz Kowalski became COO, he saw that NKI needed a better project management tool, one that fit the complex needs of a large company.
What was breaking
- Microsoft Project complicated development Cost and utilization inconsistencies made product development more difficult, not less.
- ProjectManager.com lacked capability It lacked the flexibility and scalability required by NKI's expanding operations.
- His pursuit of a tool that could handle enterprise-level PPM challenges led NKI to Celoxis.
Celoxis was meant to improve our project management, but it has profoundly impacted the way we work. It has transformed the way we run our operations, our decision-making and most importantly our culture.
