Project documentation
the wiki way

Advantages of project documentation

Professional project documentation throughout the entire project cycle – from planning, implementation, control and monitoring to project completion – provides substantial benefits to the project manager. It helps to

• find information quickly
• ensure the ability to provide information
• create legal certainty
• make decisions in a comprehensible manner
• learn from mistakes
• eliminate misunderstandings

From “knowledge silos” to dynamic project documentation

Valuable knowledge and important information is often stored in folders and drawers or, even worse, exclusively in the heads of your employees. You can do better. You, too, can rely on wiki-style project documentation and bundle all this important information in your company wiki. Online and accessible at any time.

For example, use internal and external links, attachments and interfaces to your Office documents and organize your project plan as well as project-related documents and correspondence such as

• task definition
• time planning / milestones
• decisions, authorizations and restrictions
• project methods used, procedures, processes and tools
• knowledge, experience, historical information
• agreements and contracts
• problems, defects and errors, and measures to eliminate them
• reports and status updates
• specifications and acceptance agreements
• price calculation, cost–utility analysis and profitability
• results and acceptance documents
• project plans and project reports
• documents on risk management and quality assurance

… and much more!
