mit unterschiedlichem Verdichtungsgrad der Planungen

German to English Tech/Engineering IT (Information Technology) IT/Quality Management
Zum anderen muss die Projektplanung für ein Einzelprojekt auf verschiedene Zielgruppen mit unterschiedlichem Verdichtungsgrad der Planungen zugeschnitten sein.

It all makes sense until I get to * mit unterschiedlichem Verdichtungsgrad der Planungen*. Does it simply mean that projects for some target groups require a greater amount of planning than others? Would anyone care to explain this to me? Many thanks.

I'd say

project plans for single projects need to be customized with varying degrees of specificity for the disparate target groups

different/lesser or greater degree/extent of detailing (of planning)

I think this is what they are after here: Some target groups require a greater degree of detailing than others.

For "Verdichtungsgrad", I could have thought of degree (urban) planning density if it weren't for the IT context.

Or, from a different angle: Some readerships/target groups require a more in-depth (project) planning presentation.
Peer comment(s):

agree Chris Rowson (X) : Yes. I think what they mean is not that some projects require more detail, but that some readerships require more detail. MS Project is easily persuaded to produce the reports at different levels of detail.

Yup, that's what I've (almost) said IOW: "Some target groups require a greater degree of detailing than others."
