Ryan Godfrey: Northrop Grumman
Challenges
- Required an integrated project scheduling platform that could unify its disparate business processes across 4 separate business units, replacing Oracle Primavera, Planview, Clarizen, Smartsheet, etc. and other point solutions (PTC, Ansys, etc.)
- A single, scalable workforce planning solution that would be tightly coupled to this project schedule platform
- Sought a single source of truth – a single system of record, a single decision support platform that would provide integrity surrounding every aspect of finance, accounting and cost control
Capabilities Cora brings
- Meets strict DoD demands around EVM and the DCAA and DCMA requirements
- Supply chain synchronization
- Financial controls for all elements of the contracted project (people, assets, materials)
- UX and ease of use underpins all functionality
- Flexibility of the product to adapt to business processes and methodologies
Results
- 3,000 employees save 25% of their time to be able to do other activities
- Allows all reporting to both government and investors to be rolled up from a single platform
