What is Primavera P6 Enterprise Project Portfolio Management?
primavera-p6-eppmPrimavera P6 Enterprise Project Portfolio Management is an Enterprise portfolio and project management tool. P6 EPPM is a combination of what used to be called myPrimavera (or P6 Web) as well as P6 PPM. So it is really 2 tools that provide 2 ways to access the Primavera database – a Web-based tool and the familiar Windows-based tool.
P6 EPPM brings a whole new set of features and functionality that sets it apart from plain-old PPM. For example, the Web-side of EPPM is very rich in graphs, charts, pivot tables and dashboards. It adds a new way of seeing P6 data in a rich graphical sense. Also, there is a big focus on Portfolio Management, which allows you to manage groups of projects together in a portfolio, and to manage that data, be it cost, schedule or resource-focused. Better risk management functions were added in version 8 as well as better reporting capabilities. But all in the web-tool of EPPM. My personal opinion is that it is a very advanced and sophisticated web-base pm tool.
So what about the windows-tool of EPPM?
Well, in EPPM, you still have pretty much the same Primavera P6 windows tool as P6 PPM, but with a bit scaled back functionality, mostly on the administrative side. For example, all admin functions need to be done in the Web-tool – adding users, creating EPS, managing global activity codes – all of it happens in the web now.
Should you ditch the windows client for the web client?
Well, not yet. If you are planning large projects (2000-3000 activities), stick with the windows tool if you’ve got EPPM. It handles lots of data faster and better.
Who is EPPM for?
Primavera P6 EPPM is truly geared for a medium to large sized organization. It’s enhanced features make it an excellent tool for companies managing a few to many projects.
