Why TeamPort?

​Consider complex systems, whether from the built world, such as the International Space Station, silicon lithography, logistics networks, or natural systems such as climate models and human physiology. For these, we’ve achieved the ability to model the intricate interactions and emergent outcomes of complex systems with great accuracy.

 

Why not for Project Dynamics? That is TeamPort, our flagship offering for Project Design. Project Design is the capability to model, explore, and optimize complex projects.

​

Waterfall, Agile, Scrum, Lean, Kanban, Six Sigma, Critical Path​, Gantt Charts, and countless more. If you look at the Project Management landscape, there are numerous methodologies, frameworks, and software solutions to manage the execution of complex projects. However, despite the advances in PM software, tooling, and assessment techniques, the success rate as measured against the triple-constraint of cost, schedule, and scope remains shockingly low.​​

TeamPort takes a drastically different approach, adopting an analytical model-based approach. Projects are systems that can be modeled, analyzed, and forecasted. This is the TeamPort difference: our approach considers the dynamic and human nature of complex engineering. Our analytical engine understands the nature of how teams work and takes into account team distribution, time zones, coordination effects, resource mismatch, communication hurdles, intra- and inter-team dependence, and more.
