PHILADELPHIA, June 20 /PRNewswire/ -- Primavera Systems, Inc., announced today that Gartner, Inc., has positioned the company in the Leaders Quadrant in its 2008 Gartner Magic Quadrant for IT Project and Portfolio Management. Primavera provides project, portfolio and resource management solutions that are tailored to meet the needs of project-driven organizations in specific vertical markets, including enterprise IT.

"As businesses deal with tight budgets and concerns over the economy, our customers use Primavera to ensure that they choose the projects and initiatives with the highest payback to the business," said Joel Koppelman, CEO of Primavera. "We believe Primavera's position in the Leaders quadrant reflects their success and our commitment to delivering end-to-end project portfolio management solutions."

"PPM solutions, as we have observed them, support processes integrating knowledge about costs, schedules and HR, for investment prioritization and to ensure the effective release of new deliverables, as well as to control investment in ongoing operations," wrote Matt Light, research vice president, and Daniel Stang, principal analyst, in the Magic Quadrant for IT Project and Portfolio Management. "This view of the portfolio management dimension goes beyond integrating information from the various areas of a single project. It includes a view of alternative investment scenarios, alignment of strategic programs, support for business case creation and more."
