Planview Viz features

  • Measure end-to-end value delivery from idea to outcome using Flow Metrics. The Flow Framework® connects all the activities of a value stream and translates them into a common language for both business and IT.

    • Un-Siloed Metrics

      For the first time, get a bird’s eye view of teams, tools, and departments. Understand how value flows, where it is constrained, and most importantly, correlate those metrics with business outcomes.

    • Rich Out-of-the-Box Dashboards

      Get meaningful visibility quickly with pre-configured dashboards that implement the Flow Framework®. No customization, no time lost.

    • Flow Time

      Measure how quickly value is delivered. Start the clock when work is committed and measure flow through all active and wait states, until customer delivery.

    • Flow Efficiency®

      Identify bottlenecks and dependencies by measuring the ratio of wait times in the end-to-end process.

    • Flow Velocity®

      Measure and trend throughput over time to determine if value delivery is accelerating, decelerating, or staying constant.

    • Flow Load®

      Monitor over and under-utilization of value streams, which can lead to reduced productivity. Flow Load helps balance demand with capacity.

    • Flow Distribution®

      Ensure a healthy distribution of work profiles: features, defects, debt, and risk. Prioritize specific types of work based on business priorities.

  • Make better investment decisions using data from all the teams and tools in your portfolio.

    • Portfolio View

      A single dashboard conveys a snapshot of your group, portfolio, or product line. Quickly identify high performers and those requiring attention in terms of agility, speed, and product health.

    • Project to Product Metrics

      Get instant visibility into the progress of the organization’s shift from project to product-based IT and identify how you’re executing against plans.

    • Business-Agility Metrics

      Identify where product teams are ‘doing agile’ but not ‘being agile’ and where the ability to respond faster to the market is at risk.

    • Dependency Insights

      Home in on value streams that might slow down overall delivery and jump in to proactively mitigate the risk.

    • Capacity Insights

      Prevent untenable workloads and unrealistic commitments. Understand when value streams will have the capacity for new work.

  • Manage your digital transformation with real-time analytics that incorporate tools and data from every step of the software delivery lifecycle: ideation, creation, release, and operation.

    • Neglected WIP Insights

      Spot overcommitted teams who have limited capacity. Surface leading indicators that will help you address excess WIP in your value streams.

    • Bottleneck Detection

      See exactly where and when your work is getting stuck and iteratively experiment to solve systemic issues like a lack of automation or resources.

    • Timeline Events

      Insert a timeline into your Flow Metrics to understand how changes to teams and processes impact Flow Metrics and business results.

    • Product Lifecycle Insights

      Compare the work being completed in your value stream to healthy Flow Distribution targets for products at any lifecycle stage, from Incubation to Maturity.

    • Digitally Rendered Value Stream Maps

      Your data builds a live value stream map of the workflow sequence, highlighting new, active, waiting, and done states overlaid with the relative time spent in each state.

  • Let people close to the work create, maintain, and adjust value stream configuration with point-and-click modeling.

    • Modeling at the Edge

      Point-and-click modeling lets subject matter experts quickly create accurate product value streams without dependencies on niche technical expertise or consultants.

    • Smart Modeling

      Smart modeling automates workflow mapping to the four flow states (new, active, waiting, done), so you can get to metrics faster. Users can fine-tune the auto-modeled data to accommodate nuance and context.

    • Support for Hybrid Organizations

      Create value streams that reflect your organization’s realities as you transition from project to product.

    • Flexible Workflow Modeling

      Configure workflows that reflect your organization’s technical ecosystem and shape complex value streams across teams and projects.

    • Common Data Model

      Define your own view of artifacts and model relationships across tools. Create conditions with metadata and easily update models as new states and processes emerge.

  • A purpose-built data, analytics and synchronization platform built on a massive proactive testing suite maximizes data fidelity and ensures your enterprise toolchain remains stable.

    • Reliability
