For those in the audience using P5 please be patient. We want to explain to P3 customers… why you will love P6. (Spend 2 minutes on this slide… goal is to point out most salient features, not every bullet… unless you have a majority of P3 customers in the room.)
Centralized Project Management with global resource pool to understand if resources are over or under allocated. We also provide ability to create cross program relationships.
Unlimited codes and user defined fields
Superior schedule analysis. P3’s was great but now its even better.
And not to mention… we now have “UNDO!”
This slide is to illustrate the concept of multiple projects in one database.
This database holds all of the projects that are being performed by a general contractor.
The enterprise project structure or the band organizes the projects and controls access to the projects.
Notice that the green bands organize projects into divisions, Facilities and Infrastructure.
The Facilities division is further broken down into the types of projects, Health Care, Education & Commercial.
We are currently working on 2 Commercial Projects, Condos & Office Building Addition.
Also notice that there are indicators for cost and schedule. The UDFs are similar to custom defined fields in P3.
They are unlimited and different types of custom indicators.

Before we dive into our scenarios, anyone notice anything different about this layout?
Answer: Narrow vertical bands & band totals turned off.
In this scenario, we are working on a hospital project & we were award a similar hospital project. We want to ensure that this project has all of the layouts we need before we copy it. Let’s create new layout.
See Page 5, Steps 1 -5. Mention the type ahead and arrow capabilities in all dropdown menus.
Four different ways to save a layout, user, another user, global, and new to P6 project.
Having project specific layouts is important because you want everyone accessing the project to see the information in the same manner and use the same filters and the same key performance indicators.
See Page 7, Steps 6 – 10.
Select Another user and demonstrate the search functionality. All pop-ups in P6 have search capabilities.
See Page 8, Step 11 – 12.

What does 33% complete of a 20 day activity mean?
Steps are sub activities similar to a To Do list or punch list.
Each Step is weighted so that when steps are completed, the percent complete & earned value is automatically calculated.
No longer subject – PCT is objective.
