Quick Project Creation

Quick Project Creation

Click on the Create New Project shortcut or in the MANAGEMENT menu, select Projects and add a new project:

In the General section, the only mandatory information you must provide is the Project Name. You can also enter more details to help classify and enrich the project file.

Once the general information is saved, you can access other sections to perform actions like assigning a team, creating tasks, or specifying and tracking the budget.

I Have Created a Project and Can’t See It (Three Cases and Their Solutions)

I Have Created a Project and Can’t See It (Three Cases and Their Solutions)

It’s possible you’ve created a project and are unable to see it in any of the options provided by ITM Platform. Therefore, we’ll explain the instances where your project might be and how to view it.

1. I Have Created a Project and Can’t See It in the Project List:

Most likely, a filter is applied that prevents you from seeing the intended project. Check if there’s a filter applied; if so, you can reset to the default view, without filters.

2. I Have Created a Project and Can’t See It in ‘My Projects’

In the ‘My Projects’ section, only the projects where the user is assigned to the project team (either as Project Manager, team member, or guest) appear. You must be part of that project team if you want a specific project to appear in ‘My Projects’. 

If assigned as Project Manager, a small icon will appear on each project line.

3. I Have Created a Project or Am Part of One, and No Team Member Can See It

You or a team member might have created a project, and no one can see it in your project list. This happens when the project is inactive. To locate such projects, go to Management – Projects, and in the filter section, click on ‘See More Options.’

 

Once the filter options are displayed, make sure to select ‘All’ in the ‘Active’ filter and click ‘Apply’.

This way, you’ll be able to view all active and inactive projects available on the platform.

Why Can’t I See the Earned Value Indicators?

Why Can’t I See the Earned Value Indicators?

The Earned Value indicators and charts for each project can be accessed in the project progress section.

Earned value button

To display the values corresponding to the project’s Earned Value, click on the Load Earned Value Section button.

Please note that the button will not be displayed if no tracking has been performed on the project, as the Earned Value data is shown for the last tracking date. Without tracking, the system will not calculate the Earned Value indicators.

AI-Generated Reports Feature

AI-Generated Reports Feature

Introduction

In project management, clear and effective communication is essential, particularly when working with diverse teams and complex projects. Traditional tools like dashboards are valuable, but they can sometimes present challenges in interpretation for all stakeholders.

To support clarity, ITM Platform offers an AI-Generated Reports Feature. This uses the capabilities of Generative AI to transform complex project data into clear, concise reports. It is designed to be accessible to stakeholders of all levels, regardless of their familiarity with project management terminology or data analysis.

The AI-Generated Reports Feature operates by analyzing and summarizing the extensive data generated in project management activities. It processes various data types, including financial information, time estimates, risk assessments, and more, converting them into an easily digestible format. 

AI Reporting ITM Platform

How to Use the AI Reporting Feature

  • Navigate to the “Progress” tab in your project. Here, you’ll find a button labeled “AI Report.”

IA reports button

  • Click on the “AI Report” button. The report will be processed and sent to your email within a few minutes.
  • The “AI Report” button will remain disabled for the specific project until the report is delivered to your email.
  • Interpreting the Report. Please note that, as an AI-generated report, it may contain inaccuracies. It provides an overview and is not intended as a detailed analysis tool. For a comprehensive analysis, refer to our dashboards (How to Use Customizable Dashboards).

Weekly Subscription to Reports

From the same section, choose “Subscribe to the AI report”. You will receive an immediate report, and then one each week with any updates that have occurred.

IA reports subscription

The administrator can select the project statuses that can be subscribed to from the ‘Parameters > Projects > Project Statuses’ section.

Who are subscriptions useful for?

  • Project Managers, to have up-to-date information
  • Managers and stakeholders who connect to ITM Platform less frequently but want to stay informed about the progress of the most relevant projects.

 

 

How It Works in the Background

The AI reporting feature operates by:

  1. Data Collection: Gathering raw data from your project in a machine-readable format.
  2. Data Processing: Different project management methodologies yield various data types. For instance, Waterfall projects calculate Earned Value metrics, while Agile projects focus on task flow. Common data elements like financials, risks, issues, and time reports are also included.
  3. AI Processing: This raw data undergoes preprocessing and is fed into an AI model. The AI then generates a human-readable report directly sent to your email.

Security and Data Handling

  • Third-Party AI Systems: We utilize advanced AI systems like Azure AI and OpenAI for processing.
  • Data Anonymity: No company-identifiable data or project names are shared.
  • Preprocessing of Data: Data is preprocessed to minimize the risk of identification. However, please be aware that some data may potentially lead to identifying your company or project.
  • Encryption and Privacy: All communications are encrypted. There is no data retention in third-party services, nor is your data used to train other models.

The AI Reporting Feature on ITM Platform simplifies the interpretation of complex data, ensuring project insights are easily accessible to stakeholders at all levels.
