Sogeti USA & Microsoft present: Project Portfolio Management with an Enterprise Project Management Solution -- Southfield, Michigan
 
Start Time: 9:00 AM End Time: 11:30 AM
Date: 11/15/2005 Location:
 
In a competitive business climate, an organizations ability to efficiently align resources and business activities with strategic objectives can mean the difference between succeeding and just surviving.
 
To respond to these pervasive pressures, organizations are increasingly managing their activities and processes as projects in essence, projectizing their business. By planning and tracking projects with clarity and precision, organizations can respond with greater agility to the demands of a fast-changing business environment and ensure compliance with regulatory mandates.
 
Project Portfolio Management is being deployed as a best practice to coordinate an organizations interdependent resources and projects, and in so doing, better align project investments with business strategy. This seminar will focus on the issues and best practices of PPM, including an overview of how the Microsoft Office EPM Solution toolset provides automated support for key PPM functions.
 
What Will be Covered?
  • What is PPM and why is it becoming a best practice?
  • What is the problem that PPM solves?
  • What are the documented benefits of PPM?
  • How does PPM provide visibility, insight and control to key decision makers, project managers and team members?
  • What are the issues and best practices of PPM for key activities, such as project management, portfolio management, communication/collaboration and resource management?
  • How the Microsoft Office EPM Solution supports the best practices of PPM?

Who Should Attend?
If you are a CIO, IT Executive, Application Manager or Project Manager and your organization is dealing with any of these situations, then this seminar is for you!
  • Projects are not financially accounted for, delivered late or over budget
  • Resources - internal, external, inside IT, or in the business areas are difficult to identify, allocate and track across numerous projects
  • Projects are difficult to assess as regards to criticality, priority and sequence
  • Management lacks visibility on projects: time, cost, milestone and resources
  • Decisions about the viability and priority of projects are not based on business cases or ROI
  • There are overlapping projects across multiple lines of business
  • There is no consistent process organization-wide to track and report on performance of projects or programs
  • You are interested in how Microsoft technology can help you better manage projects, programs and portfolios
