Omni Account - Closing an Omni Account can now be initiated via the Omni Account window.Leveling - A warning is now presented when leveling could cause a hammock task to stretch endlessly due to an assigned resource that is also in the dependency chain for the hammockвЂ™s end date.Leveling - Improved leveling logic related to resource availability.This is useful for automatically assigning an available conference room from a resource group of conference rooms, for example. Leveling - Leveling now supports assigning a resource group that contains only equipment resources with 0% efficiency (previously this would trigger a вЂњno dependency chain availableвЂќ violation).OmniPlan 4 is now localized in English, Dutch, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Russian, Simplified Chinese, and Spanish on all platforms. One of the original enclosed malls in the United States, it also received AIA DallasвЂ™ 25-Year Award for Design Excellence and the Texas Society of Architects 25-Year Award.OmniPlan 4.4 improves OmniPlanвЂ™s leveling and scheduling logic on all platforms, and introduces localizations on iPad and iPhone.

In 2009, it was the only domestic project to be featured as one of the Seven Architectural Retail Wonders of the World by Shopping Centers Today. With more than a dozen design awards, it continues to attract tourists and architectural enthusiasts alike. It is a demonstration of OMNIPLANвЂ™s ability to manage projects with a wide array of stakeholders. The complex project also required coordination with many stakeholders including NorthParkвЂ™s management and operations team, leasing agents, Department Stores, existing tenants, and the City of Dallas. In both instances, they trusted OMNIPLAN to design a center that went above and beyond the traditional shopping center experience and created a museum that co-mingled with commerce. In both design processes, OMNIPLAN worked closely with the owner, the Nasher family, to ensure every detail was just right. The Center features art installations by Joel Shapiro, Mark Di Suvero and Andy Warhol, artists that any museum would be delighted to showcase. Natural light is admitted to interior space through baffled clerestories and skylights in a ceiling plane defined by expressed concrete structure. Careful consideration was given to space, materials and natural light to provide a sequence of timeless spaces for commerce and art. The 10-year-old expansion doubled the size of the center and extended the existing language into a new, larger scale. The beloved center was originally designed as a repository for world-class art, easily accessible by the public. The Nasher family, who is responsible for the Nasher Sculpture Center, created NorthPark Center more than 50 years ago as a creative way to mix art with commerce and bring art to the people. Openings employ vertical fins that filter natural light, creating play of light and shadow throughout the day. Larger-scale areas are moderated with clerestories and skylights. These deliberately-understated materials create a timeless environment, conducive to the display of sculpture or graphic art. The expansion continued the use of white brick as the base palette, and used diamond polished exposed concrete as the dominant floor material.

Then, in 2006, we completed the expansion which doubled its size and created a 1.5-acre park. OMNIPLAN designed the original NorthPark Center in 1965, an architectural icon with strong legacy.
