Transition Portal:
The portal provides a central repository of data (related to in-transition and transitioned projects) and flexibility to generate user-friendly reports and dashboards.
TI Calculator:
A calculation of the transition index is helpful in getting a snapshot of the degree of difficulty/simplicity (in man hours) while transitioning a project and is used to group similar transition units into a single wave (the term "wave" can be different depending on project requirements).
Inventory and Design Portal:
The I&D portal is an application which enables transition managers to capture relevant project data from the client. The data captured from clients in form of knowledge objects is instrumental in preparing KAPs.
