Webcast Detailed Description
The questions answered in the webcast include:
- How can I define the processes needed?
Organizations today have projects of all shapes and sizes, so no one-size project management approach will fit all project types. This webcast will give you a technique that you will be able to use to determine the processes that are suitable for managing the various project types, as well as the processes necessary to manage across programs or portfolios. Having the process understood and somewhat defined is an essential prerequisite to automating the project management process on SharePoint!
- What do I get with SharePoint to manage projects?
SharePoint comes in three flavors. There is Windows SharePoint Services v3 and there is also Microsoft Office SharePoint Server (Standard and Enterprise). Each of these three flavors of SharePoint can be configured easily without programming or can be enhanced considerably with SharePoint Designer and some programming skills. The webcast will show what project management facilities you get with each of these flavors.
- How can I extend SharePoint to manage projects?
By extending SharePoint with extra features needed to manage projects you get a great platform for the three main roles involved in managing projects – the Project Manager, the Team Member and the Program / Portfolio Manager. This webcast will demonstrate role based extensions for managing one or more projects successfully on SharePoint.
