NetPoint™
NetPoint, created by PMA, is an intuitive
Graphical Planning Method™ (GPM) application that

be directly implemented by project stakeholders to
create a consensus plan. NetPoint’s use of the GPM
process gives clarity to all stakeholders, creating a
communication tool not available in any other project
management method or software application.
