• Gamification,
• Social media for support,
• First line is the new second line

These are all trends that we’re told we should be seeing and that are with us now. Is this fact or fiction?

Are we really on the brink of a revolution in support or is it just hype?

The average software project has a risk of failure of more than 30%. Yet we continue to invest in software projects.

With our decade worth of experience in assessing and monitoring software development projects, we have learned that a number of specific factors influence the projects successful outcome disproportionately.

Apart from well known factors such as team sizes that are too large, and schedules which are too tight, project organization and the software architecture of the developed solution contribute strongly to the chance of success.

In this webinar we will explore a method based on “effort at risk” calculations to determine and potentially mitigate your project risk.

The Office of Federal Contractor Compliance Programs (OFCCP) expects to have a Web portal ready to collect compensation data as early as February 2012. Most Federal Contractors will be required to submit data. The DCAA is also expanding audits for unallowable expenses.

• How to be fully prepared for an audit – and sleep well the night before!
