Thanks a lot for your comment! Find an answer from Dr. Thomas Henkelmann below:

3 years was chosen as an example, because experience has shown that the benefits of a PPM solution only occur from 6-9 months after implementation. You can certainly take 4 or 5 years, but that doesn’t make much difference.

Calculating the IRR ABSOLUTELY needs a period of time (as opposed to ROI) and assumptions about WHEN the investment will be made and when the benefits will occur. For the example in the article, let’s take the three years with investment at the beginning and benefits in years 2 and 3. This results in an IRR of 146%:

Answer to IRR question

]]> Comment on Microsoft Project for the Web Becoming Planner: What You Need to Know by Christopher Pond https://www.theprojectgroup.com/blog/en/project-for-the-web-becoming-planner/#comment-51190 Tue, 22 Jul 2025 09:06:39 +0000 https://www.theprojectgroup.com/blog/en/?p=8531#comment-51190 Thanks for your comment! It’s great to hear you’re still getting value from the classic MS Project and EPM approach — it’s a testament to how robust those tools have been over the years.

For those whose preference is detailed scheduling and control, tools like MS Project and Project Online still have their place — and solutions like TPG ProjectPowerPack and TPG Scheduler are designed to bridge both worlds, so organisations can modernise without losing the functionality they rely on.
