What is the PPM award?

Every year we give this award to innovative and breakthrough solutions on Microsoft Project Server. No surprise was the continued PPM Partner growth, and we experienced double the submissions compared to last year which was double from the year before! Each submission is read in its entirety and judged by three (3) qualified judges focusing on depth and breadth of the solutions!  Speaking for all of the judges and the WW Project Product Marketing Team, we would like to offer our BIG thanks to everyone who nominated Project 2010 solutions!

Join the celebration at WPC!

The Project presence for WPC 2011 is growing  as previously reported agenda here. 

Our former and new PPM Partner of the Year winners and finalists will be presenting in the Business Productivity booth on the Expo Floor.  Also throughout the WPC week, some of these Partners are presenting their solutions and offerings to other partners in private meeting spaces on the second floor meeting rooms – details here.

 

Thanks!
