PPM That Actually Works: Real Examples, Real Tools, Real Results on Microsoft

About the event

Modern PMOs are busier than ever. Gartner cites a whole range of Hot Topics for PPM, such as Demand Management, Resource Management, Programme and Portfolio Management, Reporting & Dashboards, Strategy realisation and so on. Yet many PMOs are still held back by inefficient manual processes, disconnected data sets and the ever-ongoing struggle of engaging stakeholders.

What Microsoft cloud services help us digitally transform the PMO?

For any organisation already invested in Microsoft cloud, there is an obvious path: apply the platform you already own to the challenges of the PMO. This event will help you make sense of Microsoft services so you can make a start. The modern Microsoft Planner is at the heart of this, and so are services like Teams, Power Apps, Power Automate and Power BI. An amazing platform to unite all your data in one place, as the basis for collaboration, automation, integration and great reporting – and now Artificial Intelligence!

Following Microsoft’s recent Project Online end-of-life announcement, we will also cover how you can transition from Project Online to these modern Microsoft technologies.
