Holagent Europe and Lamri are sponsoring a free seminar:
"The Role of Metrics and Project Governance in Process Improvement"

Metrics and governance are often thought of as the poor cousins of software process improvement, much too hard and with little return. Strangely enough this could not be further from the truth. This seminar will explore through actual experience how a small set of carefully chosen measures can engage the programme sponsor by linking business objectives to concrete measurable software process improvements.

If you have ever despaired of metrics and asked yourself questions like this then this seminar is for you:-

• Can you measure I.T.?
• What metrics are useful?
• How many metrics is enough?
• Where do we start?
• What sources of benchmark data are available?
• What tools are available to do capture and report metrics?
• What role do metrics have when managing remote teams?

The seminar features presentations from Phil Stubbington of Exel and John Evans of Lamri. Phil has extensive experience of metrics to gain better governance over IT projects and services. Phil promises that the approach he takes in this seminar is one you're unlikely to have experienced before! John has a wealth of process improvement experience gathered across telecoms and defence. His simple down to earth approach to linking business objectives to project metrics provides a powerful tool to kick-start the process improvement programme.
