4c

4c is a software tool for managing portfolios, projects and resources. Its makers describe it as suitable for a wide range of industries, with planning and scheduling features at its core.

A large number of options can be switched on or off by the user. This lets an organisation shape the product around its own ways of working rather than buying ongoing consulting to adapt it.

What 4c offers

• Portfolio management — oversight of a whole set of projects in one place.
• Project planning and scheduling — building and maintaining project schedules.
• Resource management — planning how people and other resources are used across work.
• Configurable settings — many user-controlled elements and menu options adjust the tool to a company's methods and good practice.

Who it works with

Organisations in a variety of industries. The supplier says it develops the product in close partnership with its customers.
