The Premier technology event of Southern California is back again celebrating its 11th Anniversary! Discover the value of SoTeC that has been keeping IT Professionals well connected and informed.

Do you place your customers’ needs front and center? Or are you just working towards customer specifications? Are you confident in your project estimates? If something was wrong, would you know?
Over the past decade, less than one-third of projects have been deemed successful, according to KPMG and Standish estimates. The remaining 70% or more of projects failed to meet time, cost, and quality goals. And, in 2009, 24% of projects failed completely, either being cancelled outright or delivered but never used. Why?
Watered-down, ineffective methods for assessing quality and managing risk are the root cause. Focused on subjective and piece-meal solutions, many of today’s methodologies gloss over core quality management best practices that were once part and parcel of engineering and business practice. Learn how we’ve lost sight of how to deliver quality results, on time and on budget, and how to get back on target in this seminar by Zacharias J. Beckman (a qualified and certified risk auditor, CSCMS and CSQAS).
This seminar is available for booking at your company or organization event. Please contact Hyrax International LLC for scheduling options if you would like an on-site presentation.

Over the past decade, less than one-third of projects have been deemed successful, according to KPMG and Standish estimates. The remaining 70% or more of projects failed to meet time, cost, and quality goals. And, in 2009, 24% of projects failed completely, either being cancelled outright or delivered but never used. Why? One root cause is poor practices in commercial risk management. The project management and methodology standards of today deliver watered-down, ineffective methods for assessing risk, focusing on subjective and piece-meal solutions rather than empirical and comprehensive approaches. Coupled with inadequate attention to formal processes, such as quality assurance, the results have been devastating. In this short seminar, Mr. Beckman (a qualified and certified risk auditor, CSCMS and CSQAS) introduces the flaws of Enterprise risk management practices today and suggests methods for improving project success rates.
