EGI PRM 3.2 is a Web-based solution to streamline the Product Introduction Process and reduce time-to-market. By modeling and retaining the "know-how's" of the product release cycle, EGI PRM enables employees to leverage their skills and work together as one team. It allows managers to focus on the high cost, high risk areas rather than simply going through a checklist of the Product Introduction Process. PRM creates a powerful collaborative environment that makes it easy for employees to stay focused on the right tasks and easy for managers to identify, track and solve problems. Team members and project participants work together with a customized, up-to-the-minute list of detailed assignments. Members have the option to record time spent on projects and time remaining to complete their tasks. The system, rather than people, will alert project managers on potential issues and communicate new requirements. With simple views tailored for them, team leaders can quickly initiate new projects by using established best practices, defined deliverables and planned timelines. The project dashboard notifies the project team leader of critical activities, milestones and pending activities that are coming due.

EGI PRM 3.2 is designed specifically for scalability. The Web-based application enables a small team or large organization to work together on critical product release activities, whether they are working locally or in remote facilities. PRM 3.2 simplifies interactions and document exchange among people, groups and machines. It facilitates collaboration and provides maximum visibility into the hundreds or even thousands of activities that go into releasing a product to market.
