If you're like virtually every other company, you've tried point solutions without taking a holistic approach. Now is the time to rethink that. Embrace a holistic and evolutionary approach to project and work management. It's not about a complete overhaul but about integrating and evolving your current systems to achieve better outcomes.
Organizations are already seizing this opportunity and seeing the rewards. What’s stopping you? The time is NOW! Everything you need – the right tools, the right approach – is right at your fingertips. Every day you wait is another day of lost benefits and suboptimal performance.
Innovative-e is among the first to realize the potential of the modern Microsoft platform for project management and bring it to life. While others use it for various other applications, we pioneered its use to solve decades-old project management challenges, unlocking limitless opportunities.

During this phase, an assessment helps customers gain an understanding of the effort and costs to optimize platform and implement initial Value Point Projects (VPPs). This information helps inform their business case(s) for the optimization and modernization initial projects and journey.
Key steps include:
A clear definition of customer key goals/objectives for modernization
A better understanding of existing state of people, processes, and technologies
A co-developed organized, prioritized, and achievable roadmap including initial platform optimization
First phase high-level budgetary time, objectives, and cost estimates for included Value Point Projects (VPPs)
We employ a proven strategy for applying professional services to implement technology while maximizing adoption and change management. Key steps:
Step 1 – Establishing a Foundation: Deploy a base installation of core solution technologies quickly & efficiently. Empower key personnel to start using the solution.
Step 2 - Enabling Processes: Focus on evolving business needs and priorities organized into a roadmap of individual Value Point Projects (VPPs). VPPs are carefully selected and prioritized to prove value with minimal risk to each.
Step 3 – Proximal Progress: Empower internal-customer champions who become experts and, in turn assist their user community. Coupled with targeted training & support, this organizational change management approach provides responsive help and advice thereby increasing adoption.
Growing a solution requires ongoing care and feeding of the technology, people, and process. Our Success Management & Sustainment Services (SMSS) is designed to address continuously evolving technology needs to maximize ongoing business value. SMSS engages customer champions, accelerates user-community readiness, and streamlines change management.
SMSS is a partnership between Innovative-e and the customer where the customer is the ultimate decision maker. SMSS combines fixed-fee predetermined monthly recurring activities with a flexible, pre-budgeted, rate-based elastic services amount.
The managed services approach for Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) provides dedicated resources to focus on solution/product ongoing development and enhancement. The advantage of this approach over individual SOW based engagements is threefold:
Resource knowledge retention makes each resource more efficient
Application of software development dedicated team (aka agile) practices to optimize feature/functionality delivery throughput
Lower management and contracting overhead
Customers leveraging this model realize a larger body of work completed for a given timeframe vs the same spend on SOW based engagements.

Challenge Southern New Hampshire University faced challenges in unifying project execution and performance management. With multiple dashboards, inconsistent templates, and no centralized reporting, visibility and strategic alignment were limited. They sought a solution to improve capacity management, transparency, and alignment across project requests and execution.
Solution Innovative-e delivered a centralized project management solution using Microsoft Teams, Project Online, and Teams4PM on the Power Platform and Dataverse. This solution streamlines project intake and automates approvals via a Canvas App and Teams flow card with embedded strategic scoring. Approved projects are created automatically in Project Online, assigning a Project Manager and setting up a standardized Teams structure for consistent collaboration. A Power BI dashboard provides real-time visibility into project stages, from intake to university-wide roadmaps.
