Oracle Primavera Energy & Utilities Roundtable

Due to overwhelming response, this event is no longer accepting registrations.

No one knows what the future will bring five, ten or even twenty years from now with changing EPA regulations, growing energy demands, and more corporate oversight. So how can energy companies and utilities effectively manage their long range capital planning and budgeting processes to ensure the selection and execution of the optimal mix of capital projects?

Attend this event to get answers on:

New ways to optimize your capital planning processes
Improved project selection using risk adjusted metrics
Respond quickly to changing capital budgets and corporate strategies
…and much more

In addition to roundtable discussions, this event will also focus on best practices for Resource Management, Project Management Office – Managing the Change, effective use of Primavera Dashboards, P6 Roadmaps, and survey reports on these and other subjects.

Please help us drive good participation by encouraging your peers to attend.
