Project Intake Process

Automate project intake for compliance and efficiency

project intake process workflow


The project intake process for PMO (project management offices) or project managers can become a bottleneck as demands exceed project resources. The issue is compounded when the intake process itself is poorly managed or using manual methods like email.

Instead, give project requesters a consistent, user-friendly interface and smart project intake forms to make project requests and track the whole project intake process. At the same time, give PMOs or project managers a way to receive consistent, compliant project request information that's clear and actionable and an effective project approval system to reduce risk and improve efficiency.

  • Build dynamic project intake forms to capture only the relevant, project-specific data needed.
  • Pre-fill known information to reduce form friction and provide a better user experience.
  • Route project requests based on user, department, project type, or any other information captured in project intake forms.
  • Trigger alerts, including emails or text messages to inform approvers or other stakeholders to take action.
  • Integrate the project intake workflow with your project management tool of choice to kick off the project with all critical information.
  • Include change control workflow for existing projects that follow their own unique workflow.

Why Use Smart Project Intake Forms?

A simple reality of business is that one of the most common sources of errors, delays, and incorrect data is the tried and true bugbear of projects everywhere: human error. Employees are mortal, after all, and even the most practiced member of your team can always click the wrong cell on a spreadsheet when they copy/paste. 

When manual errors are made during the project intake process, they may not be noticed at first, which means errors can compound, until fixing the problem takes time, effort, and money from your team. Talk about a pain in the neck!

With smart project intake forms, you can ensure that data is integrated into the project seamlessly and automatically, minimizing the risk of human error as part of the project intake process.
