SharePoint Project Management System for ISO-Compliant Engineering Operations
Project Date:
Summary:
Black & More required a standardised system to manage multiple projects, stakeholders, and compliance requirements efficiently.
Challenge:
Black & More needed a more structured way to manage multiple engineering projects running simultaneously.
Each project required coordination across stakeholders, documentation control, and reporting. Without a standardised system, project launches and reporting varied, making it difficult to maintain consistency and ISO 9001 compliance.
The complexity increased as more projects were introduced, creating operational inefficiencies and limited visibility for management.
Solution:
A structured SharePoint project management system was developed to standardise how projects are launched, tracked, and reported.
The platform was designed as a central operational hub, combining project management workflows with compliance requirements. Automated sub-site deployment ensured that every new project followed a consistent structure from the start, reducing manual setup and eliminating inconsistencies.
A centralised project register was implemented to track all active projects in one place. This was integrated with Power BI to provide real-time visibility into project status, documentation, and performance metrics.
The system aligned with ISO 9001 standards, ensuring that project governance, documentation, and reporting remained consistent across all operations.
Impact/Results:
Project launches became faster and more consistent through automation.
Management gained clearer visibility into project performance, allowing better oversight and decision-making. Reporting processes improved significantly, reducing manual effort and increasing accuracy.
Overall, operational complexity was reduced while maintaining compliance, enabling the organisation to scale its project delivery more effectively.
Key takeaway:
Standardising project management through structured systems and automation enables engineering firms to scale operations without losing control over compliance and reporting.
