6D Project Catalyst Desktop - Single User
|
|
|
Project Catalyst allows you to build a Reusable WBS Dictionary and save your methodologies inside Microsoft Office Project Standard or Professional!
Now you can make sure that all project team members have a clear definition of their roles and responsibilities, the tasks to performed, and the work products to be produced. Project Catalyst allows you to establish Enterprise, Departmental or Project level methodologies and Best Practices to support all types of projects. This includes Marketing Campaigns, Product Development, Process Maturity (CMMI, Six Sigma, etc.), Software Engineering (IT), Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) or Event Management.
|
|
Microsoft Project Integration
Project Catalyst Desktop is a Methodology and WBS Dictionary product integrated inside Microsoft Office Project Desktop. Project Managers can work inside the tool they are familiar with using.
|
 |
Process Asset Lifecycle Management
It allows you to easily build a robust Process Asset Library - author, assemble, deploy and improve your organization’s best practices. Both Power Users as well as novices can author the processes they know best then assemble the content into usable modules, deploy these processes to their teams and improve the processes over time.
Process Definition
Project Catalyst™ is built on the fundamental principle that organizations need processes and supporting methodology to execute projects efficiently. Process definition is essential for completeness, clarity, communication, compliance and collaboration – defined processes can be measured and improved. A methodology includes not only the information required for process execution, but also a clear description of the expected outcomes and the roles and responsibilities of the stakeholders.
"Just Enough" Methodology
Project Catalyst allows organizations to start from minimal to no methodology, or build just enough methodology and capture knowledge and lessons learned from projects. It helps organizations achieve an accelerated path to higher levels of process and project maturity.
Standards Based Processes
Project Catalyst’s knowledge base has a flexible design to support all projects within an organization based on any standard (CMMI, PMI, ISO, PRINCE2): Marketing Campaigns, Six Sigma, Product Lifecycle Management, Software Development and more.
Build your Best Practices Library
Catalyst Desktop's Process Asset Library (PAL) capability allows you the flexibility of building your Best Practice assets in a manner that best suits your organization and budget. You can either purchase off-the-shelf Best Practices from 6D Tech or another vendor or build the knowledge base that reflects the best practices of your organization. Catalyst Desktop enables you to create project based methodologies either by defining them from scratch or by simply selecting all or parts of the Best Practices lifecycles - processes from the PAL. Users can edit, move blocks of information, or add lessons learned easily.

The Concepts and Facilities Tour is a short presentation that explains how different groups of people: PMO Staff, Project Managers, Independent Consultants, and Methodologists, can use the product to build, assemble, manage, deploy and improve best practices, processes and methodologies. Understand how you can use the tool to capture your knowledge and reuse it to support your customers.
The Product tour walks you through the product and also has a short overview section. The product tour shows you how you can add knowledge content to your existing project WBS and how you can quickly build a set of reusable process kernels or full methodologies. Also, pay particular attention to copying processes from a library template to your project. This accelerates your project planning process by allowing you to assemble standard set of processes to build your project WBS. And the wonderful thing is that, as you assemble these processes, all the methodology content is made available to the project - no need to browse a generic enterprise methodology - your project methodology is now available directly inside Microsoft Project. We invite you to explore this powerful User Interface (and don't think of the thousands of hours it took us to make it simple and easy for you!).
