Built-In Task Dashboard
Once you integrate SharePoint into your Microsoft applications, you will realize that it has a built-in task dashboard. It has a standard user interface where the dashboard shows critical and selected tasks, along with individual task statuses. You get a wide range of approaches to review how your tasks are progressing, so you can quickly pick out areas that require attention. Besides, it is already set up and ready. Hence, your project teams can start working on tasks in no time.
Collect Content Across Project Sites
The SharePoint project management feature improves workflow throughout all teams and levels by combining and organizing content from different project sites into a single accessible and efficient framework. Rather than team members who visit an individual project site, they can search for everything needed for daily work tasks. They can also go through the progress of teams and collaborators assigned to the same tasks and monitor whether the overall project is working as expected.
Pre-Made Templates
Organizations can use SharePoint to configure pre-made templates for their projects. You can easily include them on a project site. Due to enhanced standardization, project teams have plenty of flexibility to work with and can manage the foundation for future migration or development of project management solutions. It is quite easy to set up project templates, allowing key business analysis for the identification of groups and classification of project work.
Security and Control
SharePoint provides several security options, such as permissions and encryption, to help you control who can access and edit project data. If your business is already using SharePoint, you can add templates to your existing systems without extra IT overheads.
Visibility with Project Reports
Using a project site in SharePoint brings all reports, documents, and information into a single environment. This sole source of project truth can help you find answers to all questions pertaining to your projects. You can capture project information, such as:
- Tasks by the status chart (the number of late tasks and current finish date)
- Project status icons (reporting on cost, health, time, and completion percentage)
- Key Project metrics
