Visualize Projects and Control them
Project Management Tools (PM Tools) like Dragon1 support designing and architecture of Project Management solutions at a high level. You can create Project Landscape Maps to design the best Project Architecture. You can also manage your project using a Project Management Dashboard.
Any document, diagram, or artifact can be created and published internally or publicly to enable stakeholders managing projects better.
Because Dragon1 is online integrated software for teams and individuals, it will save any user time and money compared with a set of offline, non-integrated tools.
On this page, we will outline how you, as a Business Professional, can use Dragon1 for Project Management. Turn projects into success stories and keep them from failure.
First of all: What is Project Management?
Project Management is a process and a series of activities for planning, organizing, motivating & controlling resources, procedures & protocols to achieve specific goals and objectives in scientific or everyday problems.
That said, people can use a tool for Project Management to control the resources and planning much better.
Online Project Management Saves You Time and Money
Dragon1 software for project management allows you to create products from scratch without help. However, you can edit a prefilled template and work from a checklist.
For instance, project managers often create the following products: Project Architecture Landscape Map, Project Planning (GANTT Chart), Work Breakdown Structure, and Project Team Organization Chart. A checklist and a prefilled, reusable, and editable template are present for every product.
You model and visualize your own Project Landscape Map and use it to report the status and progress of the structure of your project.

Project Portfolio Management
You can do Project Portfolio Management the way you want to do it. You can even manage several project portfolios.
Because of this, you can scan, compare, link, and analyze things across projects. So, do some tracking and tracing. For instance, to provide, for example, as a consultancy organization, data to your customers about how many projects work with a valid and signed-off financial business case.
On Dragon1, you can create the following documents, diagrams, and other artifacts.
And because underneath there is a common meta-model, the documents and diagrams are per item and overall consistent. This addresses a significant issue in any project.
A list of items that can be created is:
- Project dossier
- Program of Requirements
- Project definition document
- Functional Solution Diagram
- Technical Solution Diagram
- Gantt chart
- Project charter
Dragon1 IT Project Auditing Checklist
Download the official IT Project auditing document and ensure every IT Project is successful:
How to use the Project Checklist
Read the blog about how to use the checklist in a smart way. Dragon1 has more checklists for you that are part of the open EA Method.
All the Dragon1 IT Project Auditing Checklist items together can be visualized as a consistent whole. That diagram we call the Project Map. It is with that map that you can use project management software successfully.
Project Rationalization
You can model and visualize not only the subject or object that is designed and created by the project, but you can also model and visualize the project's structure. This enables you to ask the why & how-to questions and, with that, to rationalize the project's subject and structure itself.
A lot of templates are available. Watch examples of the data visualization templates here.
Project Concepts and IT Infrastructure Principles
It is not only important to know the structure of your project concepts and IT Infrastructure principles at a logical, physical, and implementation level. About your enterprise strategy, it is more than important to know the project concepts and the IT Infrastructure principles at a conceptual level.
