Kraft Kennedy University (KKU) is a daylong conference dedicated to sharing successful strategies across multiple technical disciplines. Technology and business professionals will learn from experts in their fields, who will discuss solutions to meet current and future challenges facing the industry. KKU seminars represent a culmination of knowledge gathered by leading IT professionals and are carefully reviewed by a committee of peers.
Kraft Kennedy’s core value of Continuous Learning has us always evolving, looking ahead, and searching for ways to share knowledge through events like KKU, which was born out of an annual company-wide educational conference that we’ve held for twenty years. Realizing the immense value we receive from the event, we decided that it wouldn’t be fair to keep it all to ourselves. Today we are thrilled to offer our New York City-area clients the unique opportunity to participate.
We are pleased to offer a limited number of free tickets this year in honor of the official opening of KKU to the community. Request registration now.

ILTA Product Briefing - Improve Project Delivery with PMOaaS
2017-10-16 12:00 - 13:00 | NY
“Do what you do best, and outsource the rest.” -Peter Drucker
This session will help you have a conversation with anyone struggling with an ever-growing project portfolio that’s crying out for structure, processes, and predictability.
Many law firms have been forced to dissolve their PMOs due to budget cuts. As a result, they rely on their already busy staff to assume the additional responsibilities of project manager and encounter recurring issues and failures on projects.
In this session, we will discuss how a firm with or without an internal PMO can deliver successful projects, on time and on budget.
Join experienced project managers Pat Mansuy and Mike Walls to learn how leading firms with proactive goals for a modern legal practice are turning to PMOaaS—outsourced project management. This session will cover the following benefits of this new approach:

Strategically manage the firm’s project portfolio
Predictable monthly cost and added value
Flexible resources on demand
Ability to respond to changing business demands
Comprehensive governance processes with visibility for management
