Getting projects started is a huge task in itself. One has a zillion things to focus on. But identifying the available reusable project resources is the cool thing to do!
Creating the same content and workflow again and again is complete wastage of time and resources. You can stop spending more time on creation of repetitive projects with the use of Project Management Templates.
Smart Project Managers, are the ones who understand the value of not spending efforts ($$) in reinventing the wheel!
What is a Project Management Template?
Project Template is a feature that allows you to have your project plans defined for your most common projects. You can create as many custom project plans as you need and reuse them forever.
PM Templates enable you to replicate and reuse the structure and content of existing projects, including milestones and task with start date, end date, estimated hours to speed up new project creation and standardize workflow processes.
