The yearly vendor-independent webcast provides a thoroughly researched and unbiased review of the performance management market including:
- End user trends and insights, including end-user ranking of new vendor offerings
- Vendor trends, positioning, vision and significant changes over the past year
- The 2011 "core" vendors, those vendors that most companies should consider
The webcast will also provide a preview of the 2011 BPM Pulse survey data, highlighting project status, planned expenditures and the percentage of projects that met or exceeded their initial expectations. The BPM Pulse survey opened recently. Participants, project leaders and end-users involved in BPM roll-outs, receive a copy of the results as well as a free copy of the current Vendor Landscape Matrix (valued at $395). End users of performance management and business intelligence solutions are invited to participate in the 2011 BPM Pulse Survey.
The Beyond the Hype panel includes Jack Sweeney, editorial director, Penton Media, the publishers of Business Finance magazine and producers of the BPM Summit, and Craig Schiff, CEO and founder of BPM Partners. This webcast is a key industry event for buyers of performance management solutions.
"This is a must-see webcast for anybody in the middle of or considering a BPM project in the next year," said Craig Schiff, CEO of BPM Partners. "In addition to the empirical data we present from the annual survey, we will also be summarizing various approaches to the strategic, financial, and operational aspects of performance management and discussing how a unified approach can maximize results."
