• "Realizing IPv6: Unleash the Benefits of the Next Generation Government"
  

  September 19th and 20th, Sheraton Reston Hotel

  With less than a year until the federally mandated IPv6 compliance deadline, government and industry have made great strides introducing the next generation internet into their networks. And while most of the conversation to date has focused on infrastructure transition, the real path to success lies with solutions that harness this new technology platform.

  “Realizing IPv6” is a different kind of IPv6 event – where the focus is on exploring the business case and ROI, and moving from IPv6 transition into actionable IPv6 solutions. This two-day educational and interactive conference will identify and break down real operational issues – at the agency and industry level - and explore the solutions powered by the next generation internet.

  Government experts and industry leadership will discuss what it means to have true network-centric organization. Conference attendees will discover the path to success in their specific industry and return with actionable ideas and next steps. Those responsible for making the transition will understand why they should look beyond the minimum compliant requirements. The conference faculty will be comprised of both Government and Industry IPv6 leaders and practitioners.

  Registration Fee: Government $695.00, Industry $895.00, "Expo Only" Govt Free, "Expo Only" Industry $20

• Executive Breakfast - Defining Complex Projects:
  From Concept to Development in Just 3 Weeks (Free)
  July 24, 2007, 7:30 - 9:00am, The Tower Club of Tysons Corner
  In our experience delivering hundreds of large, complex software projects, one element consistently proves to be the most important - the initial project definition. How you define your project at the start, from the initial concept to business and technical requirements to project plan, is directly tied to your project’s cost, schedule, effectiveness and ultimate success.
  
  At Command, we ensure each project’s success using a proven kick-off methodology called an “Envision” – an energizing three week approach that aligns objectives, defines scope and prioritizes the first release. Join us for breakfast to hear how innovative leaders from Gannett, AOL, and Capital One are applying the Envision process to get new initiatives to market quickly, on budget, and with functionality that's on target with business needs.
