Pink Elephant announce seminar: Integrating IT Service Management with Project Management

As reported on Pr-Inside.

We’ve all heard of the scenario: “Developers build new applications and services and the first thing Service Management hear about it is the day before it goes live

That doesn’t happen anymore does it?

But when should Service Management get involved in new projects and services? How should you be involved? What questions should you ask? How can you integrate ITSM with PPM

Project & Portfolio Management)?, and How can I reduce Project costs?

In this one-day informative seminar, packed full of practical ‘How to’ advice, we’ll show you how to ensure collaboration and engagement happens at the beginning of the Development Lifecycle. Ensuring ALL requirements are taken into account will enable a smooth, cost effective, fault free Service Introduction process. We’ll also show you how to improve the management and control of projects that are introducing new Services and Components into the live environment.

As Project Management and Service Management are both important, but different, disciplines playing a significant role to improve the quality of IT services, what can be done to avoid or minimize the potential issues and conflict.

With speakers from Pink Elephant, Computer Associates, the NHS, Smart-SIP, and Malcolm Fry Consulting, this seminar will address how you could integrate the two disciplines, getting them working in harmony for seamless Service Introduction.
