TPG The Project Group “Finalist” for the Microsoft Partner of the Year Award 2015
Innovative products for resource management result in international recognition in the Project and Portfolio Management category
Munich, Germany. June 08, 2015 – TPG The Project Group, an international full-service provider of enterprise-wide project management, has received Microsoft’s internationally coveted “Finalist” recognition in the Project and Portfolio Management category for its SharePoint apps for resource management. Dubbed “Resource Management Paradise”, TPG entered the TPG TeamManager and TPG TeamLink in the competition for the award. Particularly useful for matrix organizations, the product combination facilitates resource management in line-of-business departments and helps managers commit line resources to projects. The products are available in the Microsoft Office Online Store – companies can download TPG TeamLink entirely free of charge and test the TPG TeamManager for 60 days at no cost.
(firmenpresse) - The recognition as Finalist for the Microsoft Partner of the Year Award confirms TPG The Project Group’s position as one of the world’s leading providers of project and portfolio management using Microsoft technology. With the partner awards, Microsoft honors a selection of its partners once a year to acknowledge excellent and innovative solutions based on its own technology. An important criterion for Microsoft is that the solutions deliver tangible value to customers.
“This year’s award winners are among the most innovative and valuable our partner ecosystem has to offer. Therefore, it came as no surprise that TPG was named among that group as this year’s Finalist of the 2015 Microsoft Project & Portfolio Management award,” said Phil Sorgen, corporate vice president, Worldwide Partner Group, Microsoft Corp. “We applaud TPG on this achievement and for the outstanding value it continues to provide for our mutual customers.”
TPG TeamManager is an app for SharePoint 2013. The tool enables managers to plan absences, non-project related line activities, and resource commitments for projects. It provides configurable traffic light indicators to show the resources’ workloads and the project commitment status in a capacity utilization chart. The resources’ capacity is drawn from the Project Server’s resource pool. Team managers enter absences and line-related activities manually, enabling them to see how available their staff are for projects. When a project request arrives via the Project Server, team managers can assign staff members to the project based on their real availability.
The free TPG TeamLink shows project managers the resources that have been committed to projects by line managers. They can check the project website any time to see which resources have been allocated to their project.
Both apps are available in the Microsoft Office Online Store. Companies can download TPG TeamLink entirely free of charge and test TPG TeamManager for 60 days at no cost. The products are available from: https://store.office.com/search.aspx?productgroup=SharePoint&qu=tpg
For the Microsoft Partner of the Year Award 2015, there were a total of more than 2300 entries from 109 countries in 43 categories. Microsoft has a tradition of honoring its best partners at the annual Microsoft Worldwide Partner Conference, which this year will be held on 12-16 July in Orlando, Florida.
