Projektvyer

Projektvyer is a term used in the field of project visualization and management to describe approaches that integrate multiple viewpoints of a project's status, plan, and risks into a single visual interface. It is not a standardized concept; its exact meaning varies by organization or tool, but it commonly denotes an effort to fuse scheduling, resources, dependencies, and performance metrics in one view.

The etymology combines the Germanic word projekt for project and a variant spelling of viewer (vyer) to emphasize visualization. In practice, projektvyer may appear as a dedicated dashboard, a feature in project management software, or a design principle guiding how narratives about work are presented to stakeholders.

Typical features include a unified dashboard that blends timelines (or Gantt-style charts) with task-level details, resource allocation and workload, risk indicators, dependency graphs, and key performance indicators. Interactivity—filters, drill-downs, scenario simulations—allows users to explore alternatives and communicate status to diverse audiences.

Historically, projektvyer arose from the rise of integrated project dashboards in agile and hybrid environments, where executives want a compact overview and teams need detailed context. Because the term is not codified, implementations vary widely and may be branded differently by vendors.

In practice, projektvyer is applied in product development, IT portfolios, construction, and research projects. Supporters cite improved situational awareness and faster decision-making; critics warn that overly complex views can overwhelm users or misrepresent data if not carefully designed. Related concepts include project dashboards, Gantt charts, dependency graphs, and scenario analysis.
