Business Case Musings

Well, what with the summer schedule and work and all of that, it’s been a couple of weeks since I’ve posted anything.  Hopefully, that trend won’t continue much longer.

In the meantime, here’s an (as usual) brilliant post from Vaughan Merlyn over at IT Organization Circa 2017:

Well worth a read for those who work in the world of project portfolio optimization.

UMT is Microsoft’s PPM Partner of the Year (Again)!

UMT is honored to be named the Microsoft 2013 Project and Portfolio Management Partner of the Year.  The award, UMT’s second, recognizes the company’s ability to deliver innovative solutions for businesses using the Microsoft platform – particularly in the form of our latest version of financial governance for the enterprise, UMT 360. 

UMT 360 is the most ambitious product UMT has created to date and provides businesses with an effective tool for improving governance and increasing ROI.

UMT 360 is built on the Microsoft SharePoint Server and provides seamless integration with Project Server.  The solution provides businesses with up-to-date and easily accessible data and metrics which help the customer create a dynamic blueprint of their business and technology architecture, drive financial transparency and collaborate.  The end result is an enhanced ability to make informed investment decisions across project, program and asset portfolios.

UMT is pleased that our drive to innovate and create effective solutions is being recognized by Microsoft.  Even more rewarding is the broad adoption of UMT-led ideas in the industry, and UMT’s growth potential and continued ability to impact quality governance practices in organizations around the world.

We are proud to have been recognized as either a winner or finalist in the Microsoft awards in each of the last four years.  Winners are selected based on their commitment to customers, their solution’s market impact and exemplary use of Microsoft technologies.  We look forward to accepting our 2013 award with other category Partner of the Year winners at Microsoft’s 2013 Worldwide Partner Conference in Houston, TX in early July.  More information on the Partner of the Year awards.
