workstation ag Announces NeXTplan Project: Project Management Tool
for NEXTSTEP

workstation ag is announcing the availability of NeXTplan for the
NeXT 68K as well as Under NEXTSTEP for Intel. These new product
further position workstation ag as the leading supplier of highly
available, easy to administer project-management environments. With
this project management we also laid the foundation of a software
that will offer enhanced performance and lower costs to our
customers.


         The workstation ag NeXTplan Project

NEXTPlanProject is a handy window-based project management system
which permits to plan rapidly from most simple to most complex
projects. The central chart displays the project's schedule (PERT
representation) where the project's tasks and the tasks'
dependencies can be graphically defined with the mouse.


NEXTPlan of course provides all the typical project management
system's standard features as resources and resources' calendars
definition, automatic leveling, hierarchical project's
structuration, actual versus planned data, budget and timing
analysis. An interactive mouse-driven resource leveling was also
developed to let the user solve the resources' conflicts in a
rapid, optimal, precise and straightforward way.


Through making a great use of mouse interaction with the graphics,
special care was taken to offer the user a comfortable, flexible
and intuitive interface to define, display and modify his data.

Finally the chart views and customized reports accessing all
NEXTPlanProject's data fields can be printed with a minimum of time
and project's information, making NEXTPlanProject a pratical and
powerful tool for managers.
