DESCRIPTION
Simplified. Organized. On time. On budget. These are lofty goals for any project, but don’t typically describe an entire PPM organization. This was GE Global Research’s goal. This session, led by Jim Alcombright, GE Global Research’s Director of IT Project & Portfolio Management, and Guy Shani, Clarizen’s COO, explores how GE Global Research more than doubled its rate of on-time/on-budget projects to 90% in under a year and the role Clarizen played in this revolution.
