, Munich, Germany – TPG The Project Group, a full-service provider of project management products and services, announced today that it is extending its range of services for the Microsoft SharePoint platform with software products from Nintex. TPG will initially focus on the product “Nintex Workflow for Project Server 2010”. However, the capabilities of Nintex software products go well beyond project management. Using simple drag and drop functions, the products enable users to design graphical workflow processes within Microsoft SharePoint for any area of their business.

The products from the global software provider Nintex facilitate the creation of complex workflows in SharePoint environments with a graphical user interface. This gives users several enhancements compared with the Microsoft SharePoint Designer. They can quickly create processes for any area of their business by simple drag and drop, making their work easier as well as more efficient. TPG The Project Group is now offering its customers several services around this extension to Microsoft Project Server, including installation, configuration and support. TPG will initially provide services for the Nintex Workflow for Project Server 2010 product.

Demand and portfolio management have been an integral part of the Microsoft Enterprise Project Management (EPM) system since the 2010 version. These new functions help users collect project ideas and create project portfolios. They also provide access to the EPM system for users who have not previously had any dealings with project management or the software used for it. “It’s exactly this type of user we’re thinking of – those who are newly involved in a part of the project work – and we can now support them with the Nintex products,” says Dr. Thomas Henkelmann, Director Consulting Services at TPG, describing why TPG is extending its range of services.
