Microsoft Office Project 2007 is a project planning product designed
to address the work and people management needs of today's
organizations.
Office Project Standard 2007 gives you robust project management
tools with the right blend of usability, power, and flexibility, so
you can manage projects more efficiently and effectively. You can
stay informed, control project work, schedules, and finances, and
keep project teams aligned, while becoming more productive through
integration with familiar Microsoft Office system programs,
powerful reporting options, as well as guided planning, wizards,
and templates.
* Get Productive Quickly
Office Project Standard 2007 helps you better organize work and people
to help ensure projects are delivered on time and within budget.
- Follow the Project Guide. Quickly master the project management
process with the Project Guide, a step-by-step, interactive aid that
helps you set up projects, manage tasks and resources, track status,
and report project information.
- Get help as you need it. Access built-in online Help to get the
latest training, articles, templates, and resources. Get timely and
relevant assistance as you work with Smart Tags that alert you to
alternatives when you make changes to your plan.
- Save time with templates. Start your projects pre-populated with a
template to save time. Create your own custom template; use one of
the many new, out-of-the-box templates provided with Office Project
Standard 2007; or download templates from the Web at Microsoft Office
Online.
* Understand and Control Project Schedules and Finances
Effectively track and analyze projects with a better understanding of
the schedule and impact of changes. Benefit from better financial
control and richer analytics.
- Trace the source of issues. Quickly determine factors that affect
task dates and easily trace the source of issues to promote
accountability. Task Drivers help you determine the factor (such as
task dependency, calendar constraints, schedule date, or vacation
time) driving the start date of the task, so you can follow a chain
of factors back to find the root cause of a particular delay.
- See the impacts of a change. Office Project Standard 2007 will
automatically highlight all items that shift as a result of the most
recent change you make. Now, with Change Highlights you gain a better
understanding of the impacts of your choices.
- Experiment with what-if scenarios. Undo one or more changes to views,
data, and options with Multiple Level Undo. You can undo actions or
sets of actions from macros too, so you can test and reverse what-if
scenarios in order to fully understand the implications of each
choice while making scope changes.
- Easily control finances. With Budget Tracking you can assign budgets
to projects and programs. The new Cost Resource type improves cost
estimation and tracking. Other cost enhancements include more
predefined fields that map to financial fields tracked in project
accounting systems.
- Flexible project tracking and analysis. Compute and track core
metrics unique to your project by defining formula-based custom
fields. Graphical indicators can alert you when specific conditions
are met. Organize and sort project information using predefined or
custom groupings.
* Effectively Communicate and Present Project Information
Improve the organization of your projects and people with the scheduling
power and capabilities of Office Project Standard 2007. Easily report
and communicate information in various formats according to the needs of
stakeholders.
- Leverage charts and diagrams. The Visual Reports feature uses
Microsoft Office Excel and Microsoft Office Visio Professional to
produce pivot tables and charts, graphs, and diagrams based on
Project data. You can easily define custom report templates and share
these with other Project users.
- Add visual highlights. You can change the background color of a cell
or row with Background Cell Highlighting. Shade cells, similar to how
you can in Excel, in order to convey additional meaning.
- Use improved views. With new enhancements to the Calendar interface

effective reports.
