The development of HERMES

 

Next steps
Starting 2011 

 The FSUIT will decide the further development of HERMES on the basis of the evaluation by the Expert Committee.
Starting 2010 



 An Expert Committee about project management methods will be constituted. Its purpose will be to evaluate current trends and requirements for project management methods. The evaluation should drive the development of the next version of HERMES.

2008-2010 





 

Optimisation of the tools supporting the application of HERMES
The highlights are:
- the electronic support of the project manager with HERMES PowerUser 2.0
- integration of the method in the enterprise
- analysis of different subjects in collaboration with the HERMES specialised groups of eCH
- electronic management of the HERMES manual content.
