Last winter, Simmons Technology was asked to recommend a project management tool for the Simmons Strategy team. The goal was to find a solution that would work for not only the Strategy team, but the entire Simmons Community and its varied stakeholders. After considering several platforms, a web-based tool called LiquidPlanner was chosen for its modern approach, easy-to-navigate interface, discounted higher-education pricing, and excellent customer support.

This past summer, members of the faculty and staff participated in a pilot program to begin using LiquidPlanner to manage their own projects. As a result of this successful pilot, LiquidPlanner is now available to any Simmons faculty or staff member who would like to use it to help manage their projects.

To find out more about LiquidPlanner, visit liquidplanner.com. To request an account, send an email to [email protected] and someone will contact you to assist you in getting set up.
