Program and Project Management

Program teams fight to keep up with activities and communications within their own team and rarely are able to keep a pulse on the activities of related teams operating in parallel. They need a way to document and track major program objectives, raise alarms or exceptions, and distribute up-to-date information on a timely, efficient basis. Traction provides a tighter communication, collaboration and knowledge capture platform while making it possible to stay aware of other teams via the newspage and daily executive summary digest.
A Traction project per team (or other logical unit) supports awareness within and between program teams. The project is a logical place to define and track objectives and easily raise issues or exceptions that may affect budgets or deadlines. You can post rather than email status reports, market information, meeting notes, email's from external parties, and any other written note that is linked to other team material or should be reviewed by team members. Marking items as Headline or News expresses high relevance or urgency, especially to audiences outside the specific team. Traction provides true peripheral vision for teams and the executives responsible for oversight.
