Realizations Software Helps Bosch Packaging Wrap Up Multiple Projects

Realizations Software Helps Tame Uncertainties of Software Development

SILICON VALLEY (PRWEB) April 28, 2003 -- Realization Technologies today announced that the Robert Bosch GmbH Packaging Technology Division in Germany has selected Realizations Concerto software to manage projects in their blister packaging business.

As one of the leading suppliers of packaging technology, Bosch Packaging has many projects going on at any one time," emphasizes Shailesh Sood, vice president of marketing at Realization. It is important to Bosch Packaging and its customers that these projects are completed on time, on budget and within scope. Our software will help them manage the uncertainties, such as changing requirements, technology failures, vendors not delivering, work materializing slower than expected, tardy approvals and changing priorities that are so prevalent in major multi-project programs."

Realizations Safety Engine manages these uncertainties by inserting blocks of unscheduled time, called buffers, into the plan. These buffers absorb and lessen the shocks of uncertainties. As uncertainties create delays in execution, the buffer gets used. The Safety Engine then calculates how much of the unscheduled time is still available for future uncertainties and sets forward-looking priorities for everyone, including managers.
