Pengantar penggunaan MS Project 2007 dan Enterprise Project Management

Salah satu fitur yang menarik terkait dengan implementasi Project Management adalah ilmu yang terkait dengan Enterprise Project Management atau biasa dikenal sebagai EPM. Tujuan dari Enterprise Project Management adalah bagaimana kita mengelola multiple project di sebuah organisasi yang terkait dengan resources, biaya dan scheduling yang menjadi inti dari EPM. Sebuah organisasi yang biasanya mempunyai multiple project adalah perusahaan yang bergerak di industri Oil, Gas  dan tambang serta Telekomunikasi dan masih banyak industri yang lainnya, bahkan di government. Ketika kita dihadapkan pada situasi kebutuhan seorang PM terhadap penguasaan Project management tentu terkait dengan tools atau alat yang dibutuhkan.

Umumnya alat ini berupa software yang dapat mendukung pengelolaaan schedule, resources serta biaya sekaligus. Artinya tools ini berupa software yang dapat dimanfaatkan untuk mengelola segala aspek yang terkait dengan pengelolaan project. Microsoft mempunyai aplikasi yang sudah ada produknya sejak tahun 1995 yaitu Microsoft Office Project. Software ini mempunyai 2 versi yatu Office Project Standard Edition dan Profesional Edition. Untuk meng-handle project yang sifatnya offline atau personal kita bisa menggunakan Project Standard Edition sedang untuk handling project yang sifat-nya enterprise harus menggunakan versi Project Profesional Edition.
