Chapter 1: Understanding

Project Server

In This Chapter

 Discovering Project Server

 Determining whether you need Project Server

 Planning the implementation of Project Server

ecause you’re reading this book, we can safely assume that the prod-

ucts or services your organization provides are best accomplished in a

project environment. We can also safely assume that you have a limited staff

available to complete all your projects. In an organization where most of the

work happens in a project environment using the same resources, the organ-

ization needs to manage the management of projects to maximize productiv-

ity and profit.

Enter Project Server. Project Server answers the needs of an enterprise to

manage multiple projects that draw their resources from a common resource

pool. This chapter describes the basics of how Project Server functions and

how to approach using Project Server.

What Is Project Server?

Project Server provides your organization with one central database,

located on a Web server or in a server farm on your company’s local area

network (LAN) or intranet, in which you store all projects and all resources

for your organization. Using Project Server, you can

✦ View a project’s Gantt chart

✦ Enter and view timesheet information

✦ Update assignments with progress and completion information

✦ Send status reports to the project manager

✦ Receive notices about task status

✦ Receive, refuse, and delegate work assignments
