Event Details

Please be our guest at a special wine & cheese reception to be hosted at the Microsoft office in Farmington, CT.
 
Microsoft, MPUG and William George Associates (WGA) will be facilitating a roundtable discussion on a topic of particular interest, considering both the current state of the economy and the upcoming 2010 planning/budgetary cycle for many organizations: Project Portfolio Management (PPM).
 
Attendee benefits include:
  • Interaction with PPM specialists from Microsoft and WGA, including a LIVE PPM solution demonstration
  • Sharing of PPM challenges, experiences and best practices with peer executives from throughout the area
  • Casual, after-hours networking with the enjoyment of select wine & cheeses
  • Chance to win Microsoft software raffle prizes

All attendees will also receive complimentary copies of Forrester Research's recent report on "The ROI of Project Portfolio Management Tools" and Gartner's IT PPM 2009 Magic Quadrant report.
 
Participation is free, however attendance is limited - so please RSVP today!

Why you need PPM:

The economy is in recession.  Budgets are tightening.  Many businesses are either laying off staff or have put a freeze on hiring.  Seemingly every project request must be weighed against other competing investments, aligned with corporate strategy and defended vigorously...now more than ever.  Does any of this sound familiar?

If your business is thriving during this period of economic uncertainty, with budgets flowing freely and new projects being approved without constraint - you’re in the minority.  No need for you to read further.
 
If you’re not one of those fortunate few however, you and your fellow executives are probably spending countless, valuable hours trying to determine: which projects to fund and which ones to postpone/cancel; which investments best align with your evolving corporate strategy and which ones are “pet projects” with minimal business impact or questionable ROI.

PPM is the silver bullet.  The only problem, of course, is that PPM solutions take months to implement and cost hundreds of thousands of dollars - until now. 

Come learn how Microsoft Office Project Portfolio Server 2007, can provide a PPM solution that’s deployable in weeks (not months), for a lot less than you might expect.
