• A comprehensive upgrade path from v1 products.
• Managed or individual organisation based servers.

• Multi-level project hierarchies, allowing sub-projects to be associated with overall objectives.
• Multi-project report data aggregation.
• The ability to choose sub-sets of the PCM system to suit individual requirements and budgets.
• Best practice derivation from actual Q.A. data sets.
• Project Type based templating, minimising design time in existing fields.
• Distributed secure access to multiple organisation's servers, for data sharing.

Other products in the planned Facilitator range include:
