Case Study: South Gloucestershire Council achieves better project visibility and faster decision-making with edison365

Empowering decision makers through project management

South Gloucestershire Council, a UK local government authority, needed a better way to manage up to 50 active projects across its Environment & Community Services Department. With project managers relying on Excel, Word, and manual reporting, the council lacked a standardized system and had limited portfolio-wide visibility. To address this, it turned to edison365, using edison365projects and edison365 Datastore.

edison365 implemented an end-to-end project and portfolio management solution that brought project reporting, issue/risk escalation, and document access into a single space within familiar Office 365 tools and SharePoint. The result was total visibility across the portfolio, faster issue resolution, improved strategic decision-making, and increased project capacity by reducing time spent on manual reporting. South Gloucestershire Council also reported strong user adoption and a more collaborative project management culture.
