Hi,

Our projects use some activities over and over again, but then also have very specific activities. I would like to be able to create a template for the standard activities from which we can choose a few for a project. I would then supplement that with the specific activities. This should help us quickly explore options without the need to always create an entire plan from scratch

Is anyone aware of a tool that does this?

Thanks!

That's exactly what I am looking for. What tool do you use to create the runbook? And what tool do you use to then "instantiate into each initiative" (and create a schedule / Gantt chart / timeline / budget)?
Is just a big excell spreadsheet where we have: work item type (user storie, feature, task, etc), name, description, estandar estimate (story points qty for example), description.

Using Spider Project we create the Library of typical fragments of our projects. Typical fragment is a small project describing typical work package. In new projects we create WBS down to the level corresponding to typical fragments and then replace its elements with the fragments automatically adjusting their volumes of work, duration, etc. Then new activities can be added and activities of different fragments linked. It helps to create project models fast and efficiently.
Thanks, I will check that out
