Agile Engineering Planning (AEP)

AEP connects those planning tasks with those executing them, creating realistic expectations. Plan, do, check and act while you’re on the go, making unrealistic plans and schedules a thing of the past. Let the team own their project schedule.

Any changes are reflected on the overall planning, notifying relevant team members and showing everyone the path to reach your team’s goals. Your crucial engineering data is kept in a centralized and agile collaboration system, maintaining full traceability, elegantly streamlining your hardware development.

Bring all your crucial engineering data together to plan and streamline hardware development in a decentralized, agile collaboration system while maintaining full traceability.

Fast and powerful planning
Live status updates from your stakeholders on the state of execution
Manage the impact of changes immediately
Real-Time Collaboration: Discussions, Notifications and Task Management
Collaborative planning combined with traditional top down planning

We chose Valispace as a crucial building block to allow for forward-looking planning within [automotive OEM] and to help us to reduce the time from mock-up to the final car.

Process Engineer for Vehicle Development at automotive OEM

No one in your engineering team believes that the schedule will work out
No one is aware that the started task is on the critical path of the project
Your PMO is always one step behind: estimated vs. actual work duration and keeping track of necessary inputs/outputs is challenging
For your engineers, the PMO creates unrealistic expectations → engineers can directly influence the planning equipping their tasks with data based on their experience
Changes for your overall project are hard to manage, costly and painful

Create ownership across your team for the schedule
Identify missing work products faster
Generate your plans & schedules faster
Visibility to the top level management to monitor and optimize the process at any time.
Efficient task management across organization
Close the gap between planning and execution of engineering work

Full participation of your team results in better plans
Optimise and streamline the planning process
Always maintain a good overview: how did you do it last time, what changed over time, lessons learned can be implemented straight away to new projects
