SAP Conference for Enterprise Portfolio and Project Management (PPM) 2014

SAP Conference for Enterprise Portfolio and Project Management (PPM) 2014 November 11 13, 2014 Westin Colonnade Coral Gables, FL In cooperation with:

WELCOME Entering a New Era for Enterprise Portfolio and Project Management SAP and T.A. Cook have been hosting this event since 2009, and this year s conference promises to be the most valuable yet. The agenda is packed with opportunities for you to learn and share experiences with your peers during preconference workshops, keynote sessions, customer case study presentations, roundtable discussions, solution demonstrations, and networking breaks. Why does Enterprise Portfolio and Project Management present unique challenges? Core business processes sales and marketing, accounting and technology, quality and product/service delivery, and product development can often be optimized within organizational silos because the disciplines they encapsulate are departmental in nature. In contrast, every department within a company runs projects, and to be successful many require tight and effective collaboration across organizational boundaries. The good news is that due to advances in Enterprise Portfolio and Project Management methodologies, technologies, and best practices, it is much easier today to design and implement business solutions that minimize cultural disruption while delivering the benefits demanded by senior business management. The recurring theme throughout the event will be the role that transformative improvements in user experience (UX) played in removing resistance to change within the business community we serve. Innovations in enterprise mobility, analytics, user interface, and solution design will all be featured in real-world case studies presented by fellow SAP customers including Bombardier, Varian Medical, Pacific Gas and Electric, Welch Allyn, Valero Energy, Grupo Nutresa, Agrium, Sauder Woodworking, and Pepco. You will take away invaluable ideas on how to achieve equally positive outcomes. We encourage you to take advantage of the preconference workshops led by SAP s Yvonne Waibel and Dave Stuart, who will be joined by SAP partner, Platinum DB Consulting. The two educational workshops and feedback session will cater to beginner, intermediate, and expert-level and give valuable context to what you will learn throughout the conference. It will be my honor to chair the conference again and introduce keynotes from Graham Conlon, Global Vice President, LoB Product Lifecycle Management, SAP, and Mark Felton, a leader in strategic marketing and communications and the founder and president of Signal Marketing. This is an event you will not want to miss. We look forward to seeing you this November in Coral Gables! Sincerely, Ian Strain, President ROSS Management Services 2
