IPO are now looking for a partner to help build the current Project Online functionality into the Project Accelerator, with an aim to allow future iterations to integrate with Azure Dev Ops\. The linked specification summarises our requirements, which are still subject to change based on the feedback from the market engagement approach\.\.
