Project environments today are more dynamic than ever. Project planning, collaborating and tracking are fundamental steps highest on the priority list for all workgroups (project team). Versatility, efficiency, and ease of use have many workgroups embracing Microsoft’s SharePoint platform for team collaboration.
Workgroup is a SharePoint-based project management solution that enables small, medium and large sized teams to work together effectively. From planning a construction project, developing software using SCRUM processes, deploying a shared services initiative or simply managing projects, Workgroup’s highly customizable templates enable workgroups to quickly and easily tailor their workgroup sites to meet their own unique needs.
Workgroup also utilizes proven scheduling features of Microsoft Office Project enabling Project Managers to easily and effectively publish and share project schedules, critical tasks and due dates online. Workgroup leverages a centralized location for distribution of all project related activities and artifacts such as documents, issues, risks, change requests and discussion boards so team members can collaborate effectively with others.
Working together on projects just got easier for individuals, and workgroups.
