Métier develops, manufacturers and maintains proprietary project portfolio management software. Métier's project portfolio management software was formerly known as PPM Central,[2] and before that, was known as WorkLenz.[3] It uses the HTML5 technology.
The Taxonomy tool is an additional functionality, which allows users to explore and navigate their portfolio. The taxonomic structure provides a method for analyzing and reporting on organizational big data. The integrated toolset allows users to derive reports at all levels of the Taxonomy.[4] Métier is using natural language processing to improve project and project portfolio management.[5]
WorkLenz
WorkLenz was a web based project portfolio management application with no active controls and no persistent cookies.[6] It was built on the .NET Framework and was available in two delivery methods: self-hosted or software as a service (SaaS). WorkLenz enabled the select, control and evaluate process for enterprise software projects and investments.[7]
