Outcomes: Visibility That Builds Trust
In Europe’s highly fragmented and heavily regulated capital project landscape, having control over project lifecycles is a strategic necessity.
Primaned helps public institutions, private investors, and global enterprises take control of their project portfolios with PMWEB. By aligning complex stakeholders, digitizing multi-country workflows, and enabling real-time financial visibility, Primaned delivers results that go beyond compliance — driving operational consistency and long-term value.
Whether it’s five licenses or 50,000 invoices, our clients need clarity, not complexity. PMWEB helps us deliver that at scale.

Objectives: Enabling Scalable, Reliable Project Controls
- Standardize cost and asset management across subsidiaries and regions
- Unify fragmented project data into a single source of truth
- Align processes across diverse legal, financial, and operational contexts
- Improve audit readiness and financial forecasting
- Reduce manual intervention, delays, and data quality risks
Solution: Configurable Control for Complex Portfolios
To meet these goals, Primaned implements PMWEB as a flexible, centralized control center that adapts to diverse clients while maintaining strategic consistency. This balance of structure and adaptability is especially valuable in European markets, where no two clients — or regions — operate exactly the same way.
PMWEB’s modular platform allows Primaned to deliver:
- Multi-language, multi-currency, and multi-process configuration
- Centralized cost, asset, and demand management
- Role-based workflow automation for change and invoice approvals
- Data governance and real-time reporting via Power BI
- Audit-ready documentation with traceable actions across teams
Everything we do is about connecting people, process, and tools. PMWEB gives us the structure to make that connection real — and sustainable.

Implementation: From Strategy to System
Primaned tailors each deployment to fit the client’s regulatory environment, process maturity, and organizational structure. Key implementation steps include:
- Process mapping workshops to align on governance requirements and stakeholder roles.
- Configuration of 100+ workflow templates to support various project types, regions, and approval paths.
- Middleware integrations for automated invoice routing and cost allocation.
- Development of branded Power BI dashboards for client-specific reporting and presentation.
- Multilingual system setup to support distributed teams across borders.
- Academy-led training programs to ensure user adoption and long-term system sustainability.
- Data quality management tools to maintain accuracy across financial systems.
Collaboration: A Full-Service Partner Across Europe
Other than implementing systems, Primaned embed themselves in their clients’ operational models. Through deep expertise in project controls, localized delivery teams, and a full-service consulting structure, they ensure every implementation aligns with business goals and regulatory expectations.
Their regional reach includes dedicated teams in Germany, the Netherlands, and the UK, supported by subject-matter experts in BI, scheduling, and capital program governance.
We’re a lean team. That means we stay close to the work — and close to the people. It’s how we keep the system aligned as the client evolves.
