Upcoming Perficient Events
By Michael Lundberg | September 6, 2007
I don’t know how many people check out my “About” page of my site, but those that have know that I work in sales in the service oriented architecture practice group for the information technology consulting company, Perficient. I joined Perficient when they acquired my previous employee, the Houston-based ZettaWorks. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed the last three years that I’ve been with Perficient. I can say that we’re a well-run company, with great people and we’re only getting better.
Just this week, Perficient was recognized as the 15th company on Fortune Magazine’s 2007 100 Fastest Growing Companies list. Note the articles here and here.
Perficient maintains strong partnerships with all of the leading SOA vendors including IBM, TIBCO, BEA, and Oracle to name a few. I don’t know how many people who read this site are existing clients, potential clients, or partners. For those readers who fall into that category, I wanted to highlight several upcoming IBM events. I want to point out that we do events with all of our partners, and when it happens, I’ll be sure to announce them, but this week it just so happens that we announced several IBM events. There’s no favortism here, fellas.
The events are listed below, along with registration information:
Perficient hosts IBM Impact Comes to You - an event that brings the value of the IBM Impact 2007 conference (which was held in Orlando, Florida on May 20-25) in a local venue, to business and IT professionals and executives.

Perficient and IBM are also co-sponsoring a webinar on the IBM Dashboard Accelerator on Thursday, September 13th at 1pm EST.
Having the right information at the right time matters in business performance. With plants expanding nationwide and thousands of employees, Merillat lacked the right view of business operations. Spreadsheets had outgrown their usefulness. Learn how, using the IBM Dashboard Accelerator, the company is now able to see business details for each order using a visual, intuitive, personalized interface. Join Steven Hester from Merillat as he discusses how a successful dashboard implementation has helped translate raw data into intuitive, useful business information. Then listen to Joel Stanesa from Perficient, an IBM Business Partner, as he describes helping Merrillat with a successful solution, providing business insight that was never possible before. You’ll also get a brief overview from Rebecca Buisan of the IBM Dashboard Accelerator that Merrillat and others are using from to improve employee communication, insight and overall -performance.
