I currently work as an online Oracle ERP Manager for a Saudi company whose main business activity is contracting and construction. The company has many projects of different types like MEP projects in which the project managers use Oracle Primavera Portfolio Management for managing and supporting the project management tasks for tracking and following up the work from start to end.

- Reviewing the portfolio performance and comparing the current case with the past and the future data to identify the gaps and potential problems to handle and overcome them in effective and efficient ways.
- Adding more advantages and features for better personalization and customization to suit both local and international standards.
- Supporting more languages especially the Arabic language.

Primavera comes with various dashboards, which help project teams stay on track.

- Collaboration among the project teams can be enhanced with an integrated social network, where users can share documents and tag comments.
- Project budgeting, costs, capitalization, expenses, embedded analytics, and data visualizations come in built-in with the software.

P6 from a Beginner's Perspective

Because we are able to better predict our major deliverables, we can become better meeting our customer expectations.

Oracle Primavera 6 (P6) Schedule Software Review
We use Oracle Primavera 6 across our organization to manage schedules for the projects we build as a company.
- Primavera as a scheduling software can manage large project schedules regardless of complexity.
- P6 is powerful enough to identify the longest pathway to the completion of a project. This is also known as CPM.
- P6 can handle multiple scenarios and save them as a separate baseline schedule. This can be helpful for figuring theoretical sequences.
- P6 is not as intuitive as other scheduling software. It usually requires someone who is trained in the program to use it exclusively.
- P6 can have multiple versions of the baseline schedule. This is not intuitive like saving a file, which usually leads to confusion.
- P6 is very costly for smaller companies to afford.
I am currently a system administrator for Oracle Primavera Portfolio Management on a government contract. It is the primary tool within the agency, robust in ability, but a bit limited in user friendly feel and ease of use. It offers the client the ability to manage all levels or portfolio management, such as financials, deliverables, resources, workflows, document management, and much more. For the backend user, sql and javascript knowledge is essential, but not mandatory, as the built in help does allow the novice developer to get by.
- CAC authentication is required in my arena, and OPPM can work in conjunction with a secondary application to allow for this added layer of security.
- Allows for security/permissions by customizable roles via user types and user groups. This keeps users in check with only certain abilities to edit or read, etc...
- All kinds of abilities to build custom reports, as well as built in. Export formats include: CSV, Excel, PPT, Word. Customers like reports, and OPPM does a good job at its offerings.
- Visual aids such as charts and graphs offer some eye appeal. This is useful for presentations, for depicting data.
- Has the ability to offer document storage via attachment. Attaching supporting documents is a must with portfolio management.
- We are in a portable age, but OPPM is not an option for use on mobile devices.
- OPPM workflow is not extensive compared to other products, only offering linear ability.
- Front-end is fairly vanilla with few clicks and clean interface. Due to limited browser support, users often have difficulties when browsers upgrade or settings are changed.

Oracle Primavera is primarily used my internal innovation stakeholders in order to manage internal cross-functional new product launches, services, or enhancements. It helps to solve the problems of launching the aforementioned projects on-time, within a budget, and in line with its scope. It is used as a centralized hub in order to manage, organize, and create reports for projects.
- Project Task & Graphics Manipulations
- Relatively Responsive in Comparison to Similar Tools
- Simple Information Extraction
- The system feels a bit manual at times, primarily in entry.
- Graphics could used to be spruced up to deliver more professionally looking outputs.

Oralcle Primavera Review
We use Oracle Primavera across several business units to plan and forecast our project activities, durations, progress, and resources. It is used to identify delays in the project.
- Critical Path Methodology will identify potential issues in on time completion if activities move.
- A resources loaded schedule can accurately forecast % complete and staffing requirements.
- Coding allows easy group, sort, and filtering when reporting to certain business units out of the same file.
- Reporting functions and graphs are basic. We dump the data from Primavera to Excel. In my experience most companies have this practice.
- Import/export functions need greater options.
- Risk module needed instead of secondary software.

Six Stars for P6
P6 is being used by our entire organization. P6 allows our large organization's many schedules to be accessible across the organization and by multiple users at a time. P6 is a powerful scheduling tool that handles large and small projects, at any level of detail. P6's improvements over previous versions make the software more user friendly and more stable than before.
- P6 allows the schedule to be built on the project site and to be accessed remotely by upper-level management and the scheduling department for review. This allows our large organization to operate off the same schedule without worrying about multiple versions, and without any hassle.
- P6 is a flexible software. It performs well on large and small projects. Large projects do not lag, and the WBS structure allows the schedule to stay organized.
- P6 is improved over previous versions in the ease in which changes can be saved or un-done. Mistakes can be easily fixed and reversed.
- Some of the views in P6 are hard to adjust.
- Printing from P6 can be difficult.
