Based in Seattle, USA, 10,000ft is a web-based resource planning and project management application. The platform-independent tool is a collaborative software that focuses on the top level information for the key aspects of the organization—what projects are being developed, how they are progressing, how are people allocated, what are the main deliverables, and what is the size of the remaining budget.
