If you meet this requirement, then the Enterprise edition will suit you. It helps you create a suite of methodologies which perfectly fit your project needs. You can also publish your methodologies through your corporate Intranet, so your project teams can access it via the web. The Enterprise edition includes the same features and content as the Professional edition, so that you can create customized methodologies for your projects. And like the Professional edition, you can install it on a central server so that you can collaborate with your methodology team. However, there are 2 major benefits that the Enterprise edition has to offer over the Professional edition: 1. Open License 2. Publishing Features It provides you with an “Open License” for using the methodology content within your organization. Unlike the Professional edition, you don’t have to buy a user license for every person who uses the content. Instead, everyone in your organization will be licensed to use the content as they wish. You get up to 50 administrator licenses and an unlimited number of publishing licenses to the software, so anyone in your company can access the methodologies you create. It includes a neat feature which helps you to publish methodologies to your intranet. You can do this by selecting the methodologies you wish to publish and selecting “Export to Web”. This new feature exports the methodologies selected, in ‘HTML’ format so that you can easily upload them to your intranet. This way, your project managers and teams can access the methodologies as they need them. No other product in the market has this incredibly powerful feature available to you at your fingertips. By using MPMM Enterprise, you can: Create a suite of methodologies that perfectly fit your organization Collaborate as a team, by managing your methodologies on a central server Publish your methodologies to your intranet, so your entire organization can access them. © 2003 Method123 Ltd.

They wanted to ensure that all of the projects managers and teams followed the same process for project delivery. They also wanted everyone to use the same terminology, submit the same reports and document projects in the same manner. So they purchased an Enterprise license to MPMM. After purchasing, they downloaded and installed MPMM Enterprise on five different Project Office computers. The “Project Office” was responsible for creating and publishing the project methodologies in their organization. To install the software, they simply downloaded it from our website and installed the database on a shared folder on their server, with the click of a button. No IT staff were required. They then downloaded the desktop software onto each PC and connected the software to the central database, again through the click of a button. It only took 5 minutes to download and install on each PC. Within minutes, they had 10 PCs all connected to the central methodology database and they had already started creating their customized methodologies for projects. A week later, they had created their first customized methodology for small projects. They wanted to publish this methodology on their intranet, for their Project Managers and teams to use. To publish it, they simply clicked, “Export to Web” (in MPMM) and copied the folder exported to their intranet. As MPMM Enterprise had exported their methodology in HTML format, it could be loaded onto their intranet in minutes. As soon as the files were copied onto the intranet their Project Managers and teams had full access to it. The methodology they had created, explained to a Project Manager how to complete a smallsized project step-by-step. It included templates and practical examples, and the team member could navigate the methodology by clicking the links included. The Project Office was happy because it could control the creation and publication of the methodologies to be used. And Project Managers and teams were happy because they had immediate access to all of the materials they needed to deliver their projects. Over the following months, the Project Office used MPMM® Enterprise to create and publish different sized methodologies for use on different projects. And as a result, their project efficiency improved and more projects were delivered on time and under budget. © 2003 Method123 Ltd. All rights reserved.

The reason is because they consistently use the same methods for delivering their projects, so their project delivery becomes more efficient. This means that they can deliver more projects in less time, saving them money and resources. You too can improve your project efficiency, by implementing the flexible methodology framework provided by MPMM® Enterprise. Here’s how you will benefit from it: Get a Head Start Your Project Managers will get a head start when kicking off new projects. The methodology provides a complete Project Roadmap, so your Project Managers know what they have to deliver, when and by whom. It also tells them how to manage change, risks and issues, as well as customers, suppliers and procurement. All they need to do is follow the roadmap provided, to deliver their project from end-to-end. Improved Communications One of the risks to a project is failure through miscommunication. To minimize this risk, everyone needs to speak the same project language, by using the same terminology and communicating in the same way. By adopting a methodology for projects, your teams will use the terminology, reports and processes to communicate efficiently with their peers. This dramatically improves their chances of success. Greater Efficiency Efficiency can be defined as the amount of work you complete within a set period of time. By using the templates and practical examples included in MPMM® Enterprise, your Project Managers will complete deliverables faster than before. The quality of their work will also rise, because they will be using top quality content to complete documents and create project processes. Improved Success By publishing the methodologies you generate from MPMM, your Project Managers will have a clear roadmap ahead. Your Project Teams will know what they have to complete and by when. Your Project Reviewers will have something solid to measure against and your Project Sponsors will gain total visibility over the project. Your Project Board will have crystal clear reports and your Project Customers will better support the project delivery. It’s a win-win for projects all round. © 2003 Method123 Ltd.
