Unleash the Power of SharePoint for Project Management Success

Tuesday – July 12th, 1pm to 2pm

Invite Details:

SharePoint technologies offer new and empowering ways for people to organize and manage information with less dependency on traditional development lifecycles.  It is no wonder that the number one business use of SharePoint is for project management, according to a recent AIIM study:

“Project management and internal IT support are the two most popular business processes to be automated with SharePoint,

followed by proposals and contracts, and customer service.”  ~Using SharePoint for ECM; AIIM Report, June 2011

Join Dux Raymond Sy, managing partner of Innovative-e and author of “SharePoint for Project Management”, as he shares practical knowledge of how SharePoint and related technologies like Microsoft Project, Project Server can address common project management challenges such as inefficient communication among stakeholders, poor document management practices and undefined project collaboration standards that can compromise project success. In addition, Microsoft partners will be able to:

· Identify the benefits of leveraging SharePoint technologies as a project management information system (PMIS)

· Quantify the advantages of using SharePoint technologies as a PMIS compared to other tools

· Guide customers to map project management maturity to relevant SharePoint-based tools

Presenting : Dux Raymond Sy, Innovative-e

•             Drive new product development based on an informed view of the product portfolio and business objectives

•             Ensure consistent program execution across a product family by implementing well-defined decision points to determine ongoing resource investment
