The Challenge
The company's IT department faced challenges in effectively managing the diverse operations of their teams across various domains. Achieving transparent visibility into all IT projects became a primary concern.

Particularly appealing were its integrated document management system and seamless integration with their existing email system. The implementation process was efficient, requiring just three days of onsite training and configuration for the pilot team. This expedited approach enabled Loxam's IT department to deploy the solution across their entire team in only two weeks.
The Results
With the integration of Cerri Project, Loxam's IT department gained a centralized tool for managing project data, offering comprehensive project management capabilities from Gantt chart visualization to portfolio and document management. This streamlined approach improved information sharing, enhanced visibility into achievements, and allowed meticulous tracking of work against plans.
