Vizula is Product Portfolio software aimed at businesses, business leaders and product managers looking to improve NPI visibility and maximise NPI investment. It offers high level tools for all sizes of business to empower product managers, improve NPI decision making, build better NPI business models, view real-time NPI progress, formalise NPI project phase sign-off, delineate product management & project management, facilitate team communications and enhance NPI lessons learned.

Unlike traditional project management tools Like Trello, Monday, Or Jira, Vizula operates across the entire product life cycle, from ideation to End-Of-life. Vizula doesn't aim to replace these popular project management tools but rather complements them to enhance your NPI activities.

The Vizula seven step Phasegate system helps you take control of your NPI activities using a flexible and process driven approach for a formalised & disciplined sign-off at every key phase, improving accountability and control. This helps to give greater management visibility of each product whilst tracking timescales, issues and risks with real-time informative dashboards. It also enables an easy mechanism for diarization of development actions and slippages in order to improve lessons learned at the end of each development.

Vizula's interactive Product Requirements Document (PRD) helps to ensure that every product stakeholder understands the requirements of each new product, improving communications across the team. The PRD is at the heart of each new product and provides a mechanism for the project team to rate each requirement, showing that they both understand the requirement and that it can or cannot be achieved. This in turn encourages healthy discussions between the project team and the product team, closing all avenues of misunderstanding and ensuring a more efficient development for your business.

Risks are a fact of life, but crossing your fingers is not an answer! Vizula's Product Risks List (PRL) helps to Identify and document all risks to your new products, attaching a Likelihood of them happening and an Impact if they do and then assign them to a team member to Monitor, Evaluate outcomes and develop a Mitigation contingency plan... that's business sense.

Some things need to stay secret, that's just the way it is! Use Vizula's comprehensive Access Rights to ensure they stay that way. Each user can be given access rights to each page as a 'Controller', 'Editor', 'Viewer' or prevented from access altogether.

Note, the number of users that can be added varies according to which Vizula Product is chosen.

Vizula's Building Blocks Tool (BBT) offers an innovative approach to pre-development costing estimations, great to help proactive product managers improve their business model accuracy prior to presenting their ideas to the business. It uses accurate costings of existing design 'blocks' to speed up the costing estimation of new product ideas and get a more accurate estimation than 'guestimation' alone.
