PD-Trak™ Technical Environment and ConsiderationsOperating System RequirementsPD-Trak™ can run under Windows 2000® and Windows XP®. Application RequirementsPD-Trak™ consists of a Visual Basic application built on top of MS Office® files (Excel®, Word®, PowerPoint®, Project®) to form an integrated NPD project and portfolio management solution. PD-Trak™ is compatible with Office XP® (2002) and Office 2003. PD-Trak™ is intended to operate using a file server environment so that team members can access PD-Trak™ functions using by any computer on the client's network that has a compatible version of MS Office®. Security and AccessPD-Trak™ provide four levels of access: 1) project team members with access to project file documents; 2) project manager access to the project planning functions; 3) management access to tools for gate reviews, performance/program review tools, portfolio management functions, and pipeline/resource management functions; and 4) administrator access to configure the process and manage the prject list. In version 5.0, access can be further limited to project files and related project documents with optional password protection by project. Standard MS Office® security features can also be used. PD-Trak™ consists of separate files for all the document templates and several separate files for the various project/process management tools for each project team. This will minimize potential contention problems. In addition, with the standard Excel® protection function, Excel® indicates that another user is accessing the Excel® file and provides a read-only copy to a second user trying to access the file.
