Estimate Packaged Software Or Suffer the Consequences

I am excited about the Galorath Webinar covering packaged software estimation. It always amazes me when I hear people say SEER only works for new systems or worse yet, only when doing waterfall development. SEER estimates any kind of software development, sustainment, deployment or other scenario.Th January 27, 2009 Webinar shows how powerful SEER it for estimating effort, schedule, and risk of packaged software implementations.

You can sign up for the webinar or review the recorded session from the galorath.com web site.

Description
The 21st century has seen a growing use of pre-packaged applications within IT organizations.
However, the deployment of these packages (such as Sales Force Automation (SFA), Enterprise Application Integration (EAI), Customer Relationship Management (CRM), e-business, and Business Intelligence) is often wrought with unexpected costs and sizing considerations. In this seminar we will discuss the top ten factors to consider when estimating the deployment of pre-packaged applications.
