Virtual Project Management & Reporting

IntelligentBiz virtual project management services integrate the Team Collaboration website with   management information collection and reporting tools. Collect team member resource use, including timecard information (man hours), expenses and consumption of expendables. Management information may be provided as independent reports (text, spreadsheet or database) or imported into Microsoft Project for analysis and tracking. Reports generated by Microsoft Project may be exported to the Team Collaboration for viewing by team members, task managers or customers (using Customer Views) through the browser interface. 

A key advantage of collecting resource use through IntelligentBiz is that project managers have timely, next-day reports for tracking resource use and reacting, rather than waiting for corporate management systems and inter-company correspondence and reporting, which may be delayed weeks or even months.

Microsoft Project is not required for progress tracking, however, IntelligentBiz recommends using Microsoft Project 2002  because of its powerful project management capabilities:

What if we aren't proficient with Microsoft Project?

Perhaps your project manager is not proficient with Microsoft Project, but you would like to take advantage of its power to improve your project management; or you would like to reduce management administrative task time to focus time on technical performance.

IntelligentBiz can be your Virtual Assistant, collecting inputs through the Team Collaboration web site and posting reports and analysis back to the site or directly to selected managers. A key advantage is that project managers will have progress reports and analysis the next day rather than waiting for corporate management systems and inter-company correspondence and reporting which may be delayed weeks or even months.

Can we use Microsoft Project Server 2002?

IntelligentBiz can provide an interface to your enterprise Project Server 2002, or we can host Project Server 2002 for your project team. Request more information. We recommend this option for projects of extended duration or requiring decentralized project management, tracking and reporting.
