About CONTACT Project Office

CONTACT Project Office is a project management software designed for industrial engineering and product development. Part of the CONTACT Elements platform, it supports hybrid project management, combining classic and agile methods.

CONTACT Project Office is a specialized project management software from CONTACT Software GmbH, tailored for the complexities of industrial engineering and product development. As a component of the broader CONTACT Elements PLM platform, it excels at integrating project management with core product lifecycle data. The system supports hybrid methodologies, allowing teams to combine classic, plan-driven approaches like Gantt charts with agile methods such as Kanban. Its main strength lies in creating a unified data environment where engineering teams can access product data, including CAD models and technical documents, directly within their project workspace. This facilitates collaboration among globally distributed teams and ensures data consistency. The software is available for both on-premise installation and as a cloud service (SaaS/PaaS). Pricing is not publicly available, requiring potential customers to contact sales for a quote. While it is a powerful tool for its target industries like automotive and machinery, its specialization makes it less suitable for general-purpose project management.

Cons
