SharePoint PPM
Gain visibility and consistent Project Management through simple SharePoint Online configuration
About SharePoint
Microsoft SharePoint has existed for years, primarily used as a document management system. But most organisations don’t understand its ability to provide a list-based application.
This platform was extended recently to include an online offering, more dynamic lists, and modern user experiences, including integration to high-end form design and reporting capability.
Many organisations have moved to Office 365 hosted on Azure, which includes SharePoint Online as part of the subscription. So building a solution to suit their needs may be a simple, cost-effective solution for their Enterprise Project Management (EPM) or Project Portfolio Management (PPM) requirements.
Using SharePoint for project management
At Core Consulting Group (CCG), we have been practitioners and thought leaders from the very beginning in Online Portfolio Project Management (PPM/EPM).
Core Consulting Group (CCG) understands some organisations have cost constraints when it comes to tool investment. Sometimes large projects and programs of work could benefit from a tool, but only require the product for the duration of the program.
Using our experience from other SharePoint-based PPM tools, together with Microsoft Project, we are able to help implement simple project management tools in SharePoint Online, coupled with either SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) or Power BI for reporting and Business Intelligence analytics.
