"It is not just about having a tool to keep an eye on deadlines and resources; it's about having the insight that allows us to react proactively before small issues become bigger and therefore harder to manage."

Structured collaboration beyond the project team

The optimal starting point for structured collaboration with all project stakeholders. In Orbit, you can connect partners, suppliers and other stakeholders to your project. This allows you to invite them to approve project files and target your communication throughout the project.

The proposal department

Build a CV and reference library with master data from executed projects and use it to win new projects.

Management

Report master data to management to create an overview of the pipeline of completed, active and future projects and whether deadlines are being met.

Accounting department

Date fields make it easier for the accounting department to plan ongoing invoicing so that invoices are always sent to the right recipients on time.

Utilise your existing data

Make the most of your business data and minimise the risk of mistakes. Integrations for Orbit align your projects' updated data with your platform, so everyone in your organisation has access to updated data.

The feature list in Orbit's project management tool

Here is a selection of the other features we think you will appreciate the most.

    • File sharing

      Synchronise project files locally on your computer via the browser.

    • Risk analysis

      Work with your risk analysis in the context of current project data to manage potential conflicts proactively.

    • Archive mails onto a specific project

      Mails often contain important communication that you can archive with a simple drag'n'drop via our Orbit app in Outlook. You can also access project files and attach them directly to a mail that you need to send.

    • Integrated sales data

      By sharing sales activity data, you provide sales and project managers with an automated tool that streamlines the transfer and improves the quality of project delivery. This ensures that delivery details and other special agreements are correctly transferred and incorporated into the planning and execution of the project.

    • Deliverables

      Deliverables allow you to specify that a task or activity cannot be marked as completed until a specific document has been uploaded or updated and approved by a designated employee.

    • Inline editing - directly in your to-do lists

      Inline editing streamlines project management, making the process less time-consuming. It is a great advantage if you need to edit many tasks at once.

    • Checkpoints

      Do you need to order materials before a specific task can be executed? Then checkpoints are perfect for you. Define both a relative and static execution date.
