Keep your plan alive - Projectplace introduce dependencies in Agile Gantt

Projectplace, a leading provider of project collaboration tools, introduces dependencies in Agile Gantt – the world’s first tool that combines the functionality of Gantt charts and Kanban boards. Dependencies improve project managers’ ability to control and manage complex project.

Planning and execution in one tool is the idea behind Agile Gantt, the first tool which allows project managers to focus on strategy and goals, and project teams to self-organize and prioritize tasks in order to meet these goals. By introducing dependencies in Agile Gantt, project managers can improve the ability to steer the project even further.

“Dependencies is a highly anticipated feature by our users. The logic of every plan becomes clear for all stakeholders, but at the same time it allows flexibility if changes are needed to be made, as all dependent activities in the plan will adjust to the new conditions. It helps to keep your plan alive and makes project management into a more holistic experience,” says Per Wising, co-head of R&D.

Dependencies visualize the links between activities in the project and with the connection to the Kanban boards, becoming a powerful way to control the overall project. Basically, it allows setting up connections between activities in the Agile Gantt chart, which allows or prevents a team to start working on a new activity, depending on the status of the other activities. Also, if an activity is pushed forward, the dependent activities are adjusted.
