Infor today announced its appointment to the Project
Management Institute’s (PMI) Global Executive Council. Infor
is the newest addition to an elite group of industry-leading
decision makers that excel at project management execution. Council
members are unique in their ability to identify opportunities for
process improvements in project, program and portfolio management;
exchange best practices; and increase the percentage of successful
project-related investments.
The Council’s criterion for selection focuses on mature
organizations which possess sufficiently developed Organizational
Project Management (OPM) practices. PMI seeks member companies that
actively utilize and promote PMI standards, programs and
services.
“We are continually striving to attain a greater level of
project management understanding and technique,” said Jim
Byrnes, EVP, Infor Consulting Services. “Selection to the PMI
Global Executive Council is truly a pivotal moment of recognition
for Infor as an industry leader.”
“Infor’s Hyderabad operation employs more than 1000
people involved in product development, support and also
implementation services. Many of our consultants are very actively
involved on a regular basis in a lot of PMI activities under the
PMI chapter of Hyderabad. Some of our project managers even deliver
project management training and also lectures to member
companies,” said Ranga Pothula, VP of the Infor Centre of
Excellence in Hyderabad. “We also design PMI workshops and
course content based on our rich expertise coming from many years
of working on complex customer projects at Infor. We are key
players in starting the PMIPCC Hyderabad chapter in 2002. Many of
our employees served as board members driving key
initiatives.”
