It’s been a little quiet on the blog for the last couple of weeks, the reason is that I am head down preparing for my session at the upcoming Project Conference in Phoenix. I am presenting with the Vice President of Sales for Nintex, Mark McDermott on Building Advanced Project Server Workflows with Nintex Workflow for Project Server.

The session will go take you through some of the more advanced concepts with Nintex Workflow and how they can be related in your project server workflows, we will also be touching on some of the new components of version 2.0 of the product and how you can leverage them in your Project Server installation to improve project governance, delivery and accountability. 

For those of you that haven’t registered yet, what are you waiting for? There are over 90 sessions being delivered from a mix of partners, mvp’s, customers and the product team.  Registration is still open and available on the site.

If you are coming, our session is on Wednesday 21st, at 5:15pm, the last session before the party, so what better way to start your night at the Arizona Science Center than an hour of workflow immediately prior?  

If you’re not coming, keep an eye on twitter for the hash tags #mspc12 and our session #PC332 for more links to great information.

In case you have been living under a rock, you may have missed some of the blog posts and buzz that is starting to build about the forthcoming Microsoft Project Conference, being held in Phoenix, Arizona, USA on the 19th through to the 22nd March 2012.

The full conference agenda has not been published yet, but at a high level covers:

  Management (PPM).
• Project desktop best practices for scheduling, program management, Earned Value, and more.
• Project Server best practices for Demand Management, Portfolio Analysis, Resource Management, Time Management, Business Intelligence, and more.
• Key solutions overviews and case studies for Application
  Lifecycle Management, Innovation Process Management, Product Lifecycle Management, Dynamics AX integration, ERP integration, and more.
• Technical best practices for IT Professionals and Developers.

Last week I was excited to find my session , ‘Building advanced Project Server workflows with Nintex Workflow for Project Server’ had been accepted. The sessions abstract is as follows:

Many organizations have used Nintex Workflow for Project Server to help them build their demand management workflows quickly and effectively. This session will show how your project management processes and governance can be implemented using demand management workflows, integrating workflows with Project Server event handlers and applying workflows in project team sites. We’ll also provide a few other tips and tricks on implementing these processes.

I have been hard at work with some awesome demonstrations that will show off the capabilities of Nintex Workflow for Project Server and am counting down the days to getting over to Phoenix and talking shop
