Viewing a Project as a Stakeholder

This article provides information on how to view a project as a stakeholder. A stakeholder is an individual, group, or organization that may affect, be affected by, or perceived itself to be affected by a decision, activity, or outcome of a project.  

• Faculty and Staff

• Assigned as a stakeholder to a project
• Have a valid VUnet ID

As a stakeholder of a project, it is valuable to have the ability to view the project information within TeamDynamix, which is something that the VUIT PMO office was unable to provide in our previous project management tool. 

In order to access a project within TeamDynamix as a project stakeholder, navigate to tdx.vanderbilt.edu

1. Sign in by clicking on the Sign In button. If you've already signed in, your name will be at the top of the page. 
2. Click on Projects and ensure My Projects is checked.
3. Review the Tiles or Grid of the projects you have access to in TeamDynamix.
4. Select the project you would like to review. 

What Information do I see as a Stakeholder?

• Project Status
• Project start and end dates
• Percent complete
• Most recent update comments, i.e., Manager Assessment
• Project Manager, Alternative Manager, and Sponsor
• Project Acct/Dept
• Project Type
• Project Health

• Created and Modified Dates
• Pipeline Committee Information
• Project Business Case
• Project Charter
• Description

I do not see any projects under the Projects tab.

If you do not have any projects or information under the projects tab, there are a few reasons this has happened.

1. Ensure the My Projects box is checked,
2. Verify that you are signed in. Your name will appear in the top of the page instead of the words Sign In, or
3. You may not be assigned as a stakeholder or resource to a project. If this is the case, please discuss this with the project manager during your next project meeting. 

I want to see information on a Project Request.

A Project Request information will not be in the Projects tab until after it has been approved through the VUIT Project Governance process. To access a Project Request information select Services > Project Requests. To view the project request that you have submitted, check the box next to the "Show only requests where I am the requestor."
