Understanding Migration to Project Server 2007

Understanding Migration plans in Project Server 2007

If you have presented EPM solutions to your clients/companies, the first question you think is if they have current working copy of a project server/methodology ? And if they do, what version are they running and if they are fully equipped to unleash the potential of existing process/procedures within.

These and many more questions sprout thoughts that arise, awake and enlighten not only your clients but your own curiosity of the direction in which the current negotiations is driving towards. In one such occurrence, I always felt that when client discusses about moving to a newer version of their well oiled project solution that I felt short-handed to come to a tailor made solution of migration.

There are lots of questions related to migration that are so critical, the sense of direction is slightly blurred to many current Project Server 2003 administrators. I have put few links where you could find decent materials for Project Server 2007 Migration but always know that the document you may find online is a reference and needs to be fine tuned based on your clients/company's requirements.
