cplace New Gantt rethinks project scheduling. The integrated Gantt timebox adds a ground-breaking dimension to classic planning logic: it makes it possible to integrate non-traditional planning elements - such as maturity levels, component information or test bench assignments - visually and in real time into the Gantt chart. The Timebox closes the gap between the classic project plan, process-oriented data flows and product-related information. The result: a central, holistic planning level that provides project managers with a precise overview of all aspects critical to success at all times.
Many project management tools fail because of one fundamental problem: they are not designed to truly reflect the diversity of real project data. Anything that is not a task or milestone often falls through the cracks. The result: parallel Excel lists, manual reworking, data breaks.
cplace New Gantt breaks this pattern. The timebox turns the classic Gantt chart into a flexible planning tool for hybrid and data-driven project planning.
The Timebox is the heart of cplace New Gantt - designed as a container that can hold not only tasks but also any relevant information. Anything with a start or end date can become part of the project schedule.
Timebox elements can be integrated in a visually appealing and functional way:
Another highlight: dependencies on classic planning elements can be defined directly. For example, the plan recognizes whether a test bench is available on time or whether a part is still in the release process - and makes critical paths visible.
Integration into the overall ecosystem is also seamless: Timebox is fully embedded in cplace's Enterprise Scheduling and can be used in combination with boards, dashboards or resource plans.
In traditional tools, planning often ends where reality begins: with constantly changing framework conditions. With cplace New Gantt, this changes fundamentally.
The timebox works live and is data-driven. Any information that is connected via interfaces is automatically updated - regardless of whether it comes from Jira, SAP or specialized engineering systems.
This real-time integration brings a multitude of benefits:
Whether in a cross-location development department or in an agile product organization - this link ensures reliability and planning security.
The fields of application for Timebox are as diverse as the project landscapes in modern companies:
Stories are visualized directly in the Gantt - including status, epic affiliation and owner. This makes it possible to integrate agile iterations into traditional schedules and visually align them with milestones or release cycles.
Individual components and their development status can be displayed as a timebox - from sample release to series release. Those responsible can see at a glance which components are time-critical.
Test bench assignments and maintenance windows are displayed synchronized - a clear competitive advantage in hardware development, where resources are limited.
Regulatory requirements and deadlines from compliance processes (e.g. from GxP or ISO audits) also find their place in the schedule - as a timebox with escalation logic, reminders and role assignment.
Whether software, hardware, logistics or quality - the timebox creates a common planning level at which all information can converge and be evaluated.
With the Gantt Timebox, planning becomes integrated, flexible and collaborative:
The Gantt timebox clearly sets cplace apart from other PPM tools. It brings structure to chaotic information flows, connects system worlds without disruption and makes the reality of projects fully visible for the first time.
What was previously only possible with a great deal of manual effort and workarounds is now automated and transparent - on a platform that integrates citizen developers, enterprise architects and modern AI tools such as Citizen AI.
As a result, cplace not only offers maximum adaptability, but also intelligent assistance functions that actively support planning and decision-making.
