Primavera Systems, Inc., the leading provider of project management, control and execution software, today announced a new handheld module for its Primavera Enterprise(R) project management software suite. The application, Primavera(R) Mobile Manager, is compatible with the Palm OS(R) and is supported by proven technology from Onsyss Mobile Computing, Inc. Users of Primavera Project Planner(R) for the Enterprise (P3e(R)) with current maintenance will receive the new module free(a) of charge when it ships early next year.
Using Primavera Mobile Manager, project managers will be able to improve project efficiency with on-the-spot access and entry of vital project data into their handheld devices. Project managers will be able to find quick answers to questions about the project, even when they are away from their office. Additionally, they will be able to capture project details in their handheld device and then upload that project information to the project server using a docking cradle.
Primavera Mobile Manager makes project managers more efficient because it enables:
-- Faster updates - Review and change project information anywhere.
-- Reduction or elimination of errors - Rather than rely on memory, notes or phone calls, users can capture project details when they happen, enter that information into their handheld devices and easily transfer the updates to the project server.
-- More time to focus on core competencies and project priorities - Reduced data entry enables project managers to focus on what it takes to complete their projects rather than using valuable time to input project information.
-- Better project results - Greater efficiency, accuracy and collaboration through Primavera Mobile Manager will lead to improved results.
Tuan Le, Schedule Coordinator for Ryland Homes' Tampa Division stated, "With Primavera Mobile Manager, we expect to really streamline our schedule updating process while maintaining a more accurate schedule for all of our subcontractors and managers."
"With Primavera Mobile Manager, project managers can review and update project activities anywhere, anytime. Since the handheld application is also role-based, users see only the tasks that are relevant to them," said Richard K. Faris, president of Primavera Systems, Inc. "Primavera is pleased to respond to the market need for easy-to-use mobile solutions that make access and entry of project information more efficient."

Primavera Mobile Manager will be sold and supported worldwide, and users of Primavera Enterprise with current maintenance will receive the module when it is released in early 2002. Also scheduled for release in early 2002 is P3(R) Mobile Manager, a handheld module compatible with Primavera Project Planner (P3) and SureTrak(R) Project Manager products.
