Live Webinar – January 18th, 2011 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm EST
Duration: 1 Hour Credits: 1 PDU Category C- Free PDU
Presented by: The Cutter Consortium

Cutter believes that there is no single right solution for all enterprises, or all departments within one enterprise, or even all projects within a department. The complexity of the business-technology issues confronting corporations today demands multiple detailed perspectives from which a company can view its opportunities and risks in order to make the right strategic and tactical decisions. The simplistic pronouncements other analyst firms make do not take into account the unique situation of each organization.
