The purpose of this project is to implement an enhanced Project Portfolio Management (PPM) system to replace the existing Touchdown system using Project Online (SQL database and SharePoint Online) with Microsoft Planner, Planner Premium and Power Platform (Dataverse), and related technologies).
The customer's PPM system called “Touchdown” is currently facing challenges due to platform elements nearing end-of-life. Microsoft is planning to retire Project Online in September 2026. The customer is moving to Microsoft Planner and Planner Premium. Target implementation is June 2026.
Project Online utilizes outdated technology that limits its basic functional components. These challenges eliminate scalability to meet the customer needs and prevent the current PPM system (Touchdown) from being updated to accommodate various project implementation methodologies, improved visualization, or comprehensive reporting and dashboarding.
To address these challenges, the customer desires to implement an enhanced PPM system to replace Touchdown. The enhanced PPM system will provide a unified, flexible, scalable, cross-agency platform that is developed by an industry leader as a version controlled, commercially and internally supported tool. The enhanced PPM system will provide richer user experience resembling a modern PPM system that will support not only the Enterprise Project Management Office (EPMO) Project Manager Advisors (PMA's) and Portfolio Managers, but IT Project Managers as well, as they seek to provide evidence based, best practice decision making.
The enhanced PPM system will also increase system adoption and confidence through regular updates, integrated best practices through feature and function improvements, and allow for professional services assistance with configuration, useability, reporting, dashboarding and workflow management. The enhanced PPM system will utilize Microsoft Power Platform tools to meet the needs of various facets of project management and reporting. The customer has encouraged us to identify opportunities to reduce the total cost to the customer. A continuous improvement effort consists of various ways to enhance business efficiencies as performance progresses.
