Why this conference is important to you
The
purpose of this conference is straight-forward: to clear the
swamp of projects and tasks that can literally choke the
organization. Pipeline overload is rampant and resources are
scarce, yet companies fear over-capacity and excess risk. As a
result, the number of profitable new products that make it out
the door is often far less than it could be.
So, how do you
decide what to focus on? How do you weed out the losers and
fully support the winners—and how do you do this across multiple
projects?
Management
Roundtable’s 2-day conference "Synchronizing Resources,
Capacity and the Product Pipeline" is the
culmination of numerous requests from customers to bring
together the top experts in resource manage-ment and product
development to answer these questions.
The conference
will examine the economics, enabling technologies and
implementation realities of resource management. It will look at
how disciplines such as Theory of Constraints, Lean, PACE
® and others
are being used—both on their own and in conjunction with other
approaches—to boost throughput and stop non-value-added
activities. It will provide participants with a unique
opportunity to learn what works and what doesn’t, in a variety
of different industries and cultures, and to come away with new
clarity and immediate action steps.
Who Should
Attend
This conference is highly
recommended for VPs, Directors and Managers of Product
Development, Engineering, R&D and Technology Development.
Program managers, project leaders, team leaders and anyone with
responsibility for portfolio management, cross-functional
development and/or business process improvement. The conference
also provides an excellent setting to align priorities across
functions and business units (group
rates are offered).
