Industrial organisations often struggle with managing complex, interdependent projects while ensuring smooth operations across multiple, often specialised teams and external stakeholders. This environment frequently results in bottlenecks, misalignment, and operational inefficiencies. Factors such as unclear roles, fragmented communication, and difficulties in coordinating intricate tasks only exacerbate these issues, which, in turn, lead to overloaded teams and projects that seem to go on forever.
Many teams have attempted to address these challenges multiple times, often without success, leaving them wary that any new approach might simply be another waste of time. Because of these repeated disappointments, they struggle to envision and practise alternative ways of working. That is why we have developed a practical, hands-on simulation—built on Businessmap—that goes beyond theory and gives participants the chance to learn by doing. By actively engaging with new methods in a controlled setting, participants gain a clearer understanding of why visualising the flow of work, coordinating across teams, and systematically improving processes can make a significant difference.
While this simulation does not provide instant solutions, it equips participants with the awareness and foundational insights needed to explore and apply these concepts in their own organisations. As an added benefit, it also introduces participants to Businessmap, demonstrating how this versatile platform supports a structured, visual approach to project and process management. Ultimately, the simulation bridges the gap between theory and real-world collaboration, helping industrial teams discover more effective ways of working.

We face new challenges in projects every day. With this CoP, we want to take a "deep dive" into a wide range of topics from the broad field of project management across all industries and develop new approaches to tackling these issues, as well as publish them in presentations and articles where appropriate.

In this meeting, we want to take a closer look at the topic of project management software. Torben Blankertz from Netpoint GmbH and Microsoft MVP will introduce us to various Microsoft tools that SMEs can use in project management.

While Torben Blankertz introduces us to the software, we should always remember a quote attributed to Grady Booch: “A fool with a tool is still a fool.” In this context, it means that software cannot solve all of a company's problems, but that the PM processes must be known and established.

Study Group Session: Processes: Quality management (Oliver Lehmann, ALVISSION EDUCATION GmbH)

Quality planning, assurance and control are often misunderstood. In the workshop, we will explore how these quality management processes work and how this understanding can be transferred to project management.

PMI understands xMO (Execution Management Office) as a further development of the traditional PMO. While a PMO primarily manages standards, processes and reporting, the xMO focuses on the effective implementation of strategic initiatives. It actively drives transformations such as compliance, digital transformation, Industry 4.0 and cost-saving programs, promotes agile working methods and ensures that strategy and operational execution are closely interlinked.

VISBO will be presenting its solution as a possible management platform for xMOs at this event. The VISBO solution consists of the 5 principles of the Execution Excellence Manifesto and the corresponding VISBO SaaS software.

Conquer Project Chaos

by Raquel Horta (Ireland) https://www.linkedin.com/in/raquelhorta/

Project chaos is often seen as disorder or unpredictability in a project, but when viewed positively, it can be a catalyst for innovation, adaptability, and creativity. Instead of seeing chaos as a failure, it can be reframed as an opportunity for growth, problem-solving, and breakthrough moments.
