OPEN PLAN is a project management package, which can be used "as-is",
providing the following features:
- Project Executive (an interactive barcharting tool for planners)
- Time Analysis
- Progress Tracking
- Comprehensive Resource Scheduling
- Multi-Project Scheduling
- On-Line Help
- Support of ADM & PDM projects
- A large number of standard reports, featuring barcharts, S-curves,
network logic diagrams, tables, WBS & OBS structure diagrams,
and many more.
Or it can be easily customised to meet extended project management
needs through the use of built-in screen editors and report writers, or
through use of an Xbase 4GL and database. With its use of Xbase and
WRL, Welcom's Reporting Language, Open Plan is very flexible as to the
methods of input and output, and supports most output devices under
DOS & Mac. On Unix and Vax, the output devices supported are:
- text printers
- HPGL compatible devices
- Postscript devices (including Sun Pageview preview to the screen)
- Regis graphics terminals
All platforms are capable of multi-user access with record-locking, and
all platforms require an Xbase interpreter (such as dBase, Foxpro or
similar)

From Welcom Software:
Texim Project provides a new way of organizing and developing project plans. It offers state-of-the-art project management capabilities that combine task, resource, and cost information in an interactive graphical environment. It offers many options for data entry, review and reporting. It provides multi-project management through graphical WBS and OBS charts. The Time-scaled network diagram and full risk management features help to separate Texim Project from other PC products. Texim Project has a seamless data exchange with Welcom Software's other project planning system, Open Plan. Texim is a stand-alone product for Windows 3.1NOTE - Texim is being phased out, and is being replaced with Open Plan Desktop which is a subset of Open Plan Professional, their high-end application.

that it gives a good idea of what such tools should do.

This is a major change from prior versions. Included with the project is CA-Realizer as the macro language (Computer Associates version of Visual Basic). The SuperProject engine is now a dynamic link library (a DLL), fully accessible by CA-Realizer, and is fully accessible by C-language programs. The C-language API is provided with the package. Version 3.0 came out in late 1993. The price I have heard quoted somewhere was about US$900. I got my copy thru an upgrade at considerably less than that."
(I guess you can get this through any PC software dealer ? Pete.)
On Tue, 19 Dec 1995 21:11:01, tkuch@gnn.com (Terence Kuch)
sent me the following thoughts on this package:
CASuperproject: Industrial-strength PM system, good import/export to Timesheet package (from Time Slips Inc.), lots of canned reports, can sometimes cut a very good deal with CA (US$149 in quantity is possible). However: the package is highly complex, confusing, not suited for the occasional user, doesn't have a modern or very thoughtful user interface. Unless you need a PM system suitable for building a battleship from the hull up, stick with Timeline, MS Project Manager, or comparable products.
