Project Management Templates
BrightWork Project Management Templates for SharePoint 2007
BrightWork pmPoint includes 5 single project management templates:
- Issue Manager
This template is designed for projects where you just want to “manage by exception” by only tracking project status and issues related to the project in hand and not details related to actions, tasks, deliverables, risks, etc. [more]
- Commitment Manager
The Commitment – Issue – Action template is a good example of a semi-structured process where you want to manage more than the issues by managing goals and tasks, but you do not need a fully structured site with a more extensive process. Other variants on this theme include the SIR process (project Statement, Issue and Risks) or the AIR process (Assumptions, Issues and Requirements), etc. [more] - Business Project Manager
This template is useful for a range of business departments to run their projects including sales, marketing, engineering, etc. It provides a well-defined structure that can be easily customized to meet the specific process and taxonomy for each department and project. [more]- Note - this template is delivered in two forms - one that uses a Microsoft Project style project schedule and one that uses simpler flat SharePoint lists to manage work
- IT Project Manager
This is a highly structured template based on the Microsoft Solutions Framework (MSF) v3 to provide a robust process for managing IT projects such as system implementations and upgrades. It includes a pre-defined hierarchy of phases, milestones, deliverables, tasks, issues, and risks, etc. [more]- Note - this template is also delivered in two forms - one that uses a Microsoft Project style project schedule and one that uses simpler flat SharePoint lists to manage work
- Agile Software Manager
This is a fully structured template that includes support for the most common agile process and deliverables for the various project iterations (iterations, personas, scenarios, tasks, bugs, etc). This approach is based on the iterative-agile model contained in the Microsoft Solutions Framework for Agile Software Development. [more]
