We have developed a method which enables users to correlate [...]

Microsoft Project Conference

Just back from the conference in Phoenix, which was very good for us. Plenty of good quality leads. Made a few new friends and caught up with some old ones. We did a drawing for a Kindle Fire, which was won by Michael Dalessandro. The next show for us will be the PMI Community of [...]

I have posted the paper, as well as all the materials I used in the presentation, on our website. Go to www.barbecana.com/merge-bias or you can get to it [...]

Great PMI Show

Tony Welsh — Thu, 27 Oct 2011 12:58:33 +0000

Just back from Barbecana’s first trade show, the PMI Global Congress, and very pumped up by the reception Full Monte received. Lots of interest in schedule risk analysis from Fortune 500 companies, and especially from users of Deltek’s Risk+ which is no longer being supported. I found demonstrating the product almost embarrassingly easy; [...]
