Primavera at Work: Herbalife

With more than 2 million distributors worldwide, Herbalife has a simple but ambitious goal: To change lives through its nutrition products and business opportunity. To achieve this goal, the company relies on a significant IT infrastructure. In fact, it’s not unusual for Herbalife to be juggling 30 or 40 simultaneous IT projects. Prior to adopting Primavera, Herbalife’s IT organization was having a hard time managing this task.

By taking advantage of Primavera, Herbalife was able to

  • Complete large-scale IT projects on time and within budget.
  • Enable real-time executive viewing of IT project timelines and costing data.
  • Achieve visibility within and across all IT projects.
  • Improve customer service.

 

Many contractors have standardized on Primavera products, with some purchasing decisions driven by the PPM software in use at the clients’ sites. Although it can be used for small projects, Primavera P6 was also developed to enable contractors to plan, schedule and control large-scale and multiple projects simultaneously. Successful implementers range from AEC firms with $10 million to more than $500 million in annual revenue, as well as public and private owners and operators. Through Primavera P6 Web Access, users around the globe can receive real-time access to the same information. One reason for the popularity of Primavera P6 is its ability to separate complex projects into small and more easily manageable jobs.
