Microsoft EPM

The Microsoft Enterprise Project Management (EPM) solution is an end-to-end collaborative project and portfolio management environment. It provides organisations with project insight and control to enhance decision-making, improve alignment with business strategies, maximise resource utilisation, and makes it possible to measure and increase operational efficiency.

With the EPM Solution organisations can effectively manage and prioritise projects and resources across the enterprise. The EPM Solution is designed for organisations needing strategic portfolio management/optimisation capabilities, strong team coordination, standardisation in managing projects and programs, and centralised resource management, as well as high-level analysis and reporting. The Microsoft EPM Solution provides a central repository for project and resource information so your organisation can consistently manage and report on projects.

The typical requirements of an EPM client are:

• Enhance project governance and standards
• Better resource management and reporting
• Acheive greater visibility of projects and programs
• Automated, dynamic and better reporting
• Better collaboration and project workspaces
• Strategic alignment of projects and portfolios
• Tighter cost management
• Proper risk and issue management
• Enhanced timesheet and time reporting
• The integration of project-related data from disperate systems into a single repository and collaboration platform
