CJ Automotive optimizes their project and portfolio management with Antura

CJ Automotive, a global leader in the design and manufacture of automotive pedal solutions, has chosen Antura as their new project portfolio management (PPM) solution. Following an extensive and thorough evaluation, Antura was selected to support CJ Automotive’s digital transformation and enhance their project management capabilities. The implementation has been successful, reaching a crucial milestone, and work is now ongoing to fully integrate Antura throughout the organization.

Antura has already contributed to significant improvements in CJ Automotive’s scheduling, accountability, financial tracking, and cost management. Antura has increased transparency across their project portfolio, providing the company with improved control over prioritization and cost management. Project delivery times and budget adherence have also seen substantial improvements.

– Our goal was to move away from Excel and adopt a tool that offers clarity and overview, allowing us to track our projects in both detail and from a broader perspective. With Antura, we’ve gained not only better control over our projects but also strengthened our ability to follow processes and boost productivity, says Mats Agblad, CEO of CJ Automotive.

CJ Automotive uses Antura for several essential features, including:

  • Project and resource management

  • Portfolio management with a focus on accountability and roles

  • Cost and issue management

  • Time reporting

  • Status reporting

  • Reporting and analysis

Successful Implementation
 
The implementation of Antura has been so successful that CJ Automotive was nominated for the prestigious “Best Implementation Award Private Sector” at the annual event, Anturadagen. The nomination highlighted the company’s strong leadership and clear objectives with Antura, involving all employees early in the process. The project team worked diligently to establish effective and innovative work methods, resulting in a solution now firmly embedded in the organization.

– We’re in a challenging phase, having chosen to implement Antura in two of our projects. It’s a significant cultural shift that requires resilience, especially among our project managers and leaders. Our goal is to have all major development projects fully integrated by year-end, which drives us forward, Mats concludes. 
 
 
Long-Term Vision
The partnership between CJ Automotive and Antura continues, with a focus on maximizing the solution's potential. In addition to incorporating all major development projects into Antura, the next step is to integrate Antura with the company’s financial system to further enhance financial tracking.

– We are proud to have CJ Automotive as a customer. Their successful implementation is an outstanding example of how our clients can optimize their project and portfolio management with Antura, says Mattias Andersson, CEO of Antura.
