Introduction
• The purpose of this slide deck is to give an overview of the
Business Intelligence (BI) and Reporting capabilities
available with Project 2010, also referred to as EPM 2010.
• Project 2010 is built on (and therefore requires) SharePoint
2010 and leverages its BI capabilities.
• The visual samples found on the next slides are not
available out-of-the-box after installing Project 2010, but
can be configured using standard functionality of Project
2010. No additional tools or licenses are required.
• The various components all use the Project 2010 databases
as a common data source.
