or nightmares for everybody involved. The PMI Initiation Phase
methodically and comprehensively determines the nature and scope of the
project and creates a blueprint for a good start.

Business Analysis Fundamentals
Tiffany Dahlberg PMP, Achievement Consulting &
Training, Inc
If I would’ve known
that….” Tools to Make Your Job Easier” Every
business does "analysis" internally, externally, or both. Business
Analysis is a fancy term for identifying problems or opportunities, eliciting
the needs and wants of stakeholders, then clarifying and validating those
requirements through documentation and communication. The end result is
implementing the best solution. It's common but not easy. The most common
reason for project failure is lack of proper requirements.
12:15 pm - 1:15pm
Lunch

Delivering IT Project On Time
and Within Budget
Jennifer McNeil, Unify-CipherSoft
IT projects fail regularly
with costs and timelines being difficult to manage. Although companies
regularly blame software for the problems incurred with delivery of projects,
the real reason they fail is usually due to poor project planning. Due to the
economic slowdown, companies are encountering significant problems in obtaining
resources and funding for mission critical projects that require delivery in a
cost and time efficient manner. In order to meet the challenges of
projects, there are specific strategies that can be applied for success
3:00 pm - 4:15pm
"IT Investment Management: Projects vs Products and the Secret of Innovation"
Bill Wimsatt, 1783 Productions
Investment is about applying
resources to return value higher than the initial resource outlay. Investment
in corporate information systems has been a hot topic for the past decade;
however, measurement techniques have confused, eluded, and frustrated many IT
organizations. One reason is that IT is not a separate business, it is one integral part of a larger business. IT project management needs to
take a page from the practice of product management to open the often myopic
approach applied. Also, technology delivery teams do not deliver value at just
one point in a project. Value is created along the way and this is often not
realized and often ignored. This presentation will explore a new way of viewing
IT investments, creating business value, and bringing innovation into the
fold.
