This resulted in a close collaboration between Nordea and Projectum, centered around Projectum&#8217;s products: <strong>Power PPM<\/strong> and <strong>Time for Teams<\/strong>. After conducting a thorough pre-analysis and solution scoping, Projectum recommended utilizing Power PPM, a user-friendly yet advanced product based on the Microsoft Power Platform, to manage and visualize Nordea&#8217;s portfolios and initiatives. Simultaneously, Time for Teams, built on the Microsoft Azure and Teams platforms, was chosen for time reporting and capturing actuals. The decision was made to establish a modern work management solution based on the Power Platform, emphasizing ease of configuration. In the initial phase, 6,700 time registration users and 1,500 Nordea professionals adopted the core Power PPM product.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Nordea&#8217;s results<br \/>\n<\/strong>The Power PPM and Time for Teams combined solution helps Execution Leaders govern and follow up on initiatives, performing management reporting, capturing actuals, and mitigating risks in business deliverables. The newly found data can easily be displayed in Microsoft Power BI, providing clear data transparency and Management reporting \u2013 as well as making everyday life easier with a user-friendly input system.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNow, we can work smarter and reduce time on the manual processes \u2013 with a certain automation level \u2013 because of the ease of filling in data in the Power PPM and Time for Teams products. At the same time, we can be compliant with governance rules and banking regulations because of the built-in workflows. We have a lot of governance procedures to follow, especially around IT development. And lastly, we have experienced a better decision foundation, which is linked to the data quality\u201d states Camilla Brahe Stenb\u00e6k, Head of Technology Transformation at Nordea CIO Office<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The world of banking operates at a rapid pace within a framework of strict regulations.
