Information Builders 2011 Government Symposium to Address Optimizing Performance in Volatile Times
Government and Industry Leaders, Including Leading Analyst Firm's Rishi Sood, Share Strategies for Improving Transparency, Operational Efficiency, and Citizen Services

(firmenpresse) - WASHINGTON, DC -- (Marketwire) -- 09/29/11 -- Information Builders, an independent leader in () solutions, today announced its 2011 Government Symposium for government customers, prospects, and industry partners with the theme, "Optimizing Performance in Volatile Times." The symposium will discuss actionable solutions for optimizing agency performance and reducing costs by supporting quality, data-driven strategic thinking, and decision-making across the federal landscape. The event will take place on October 25, 2011 at the Grand Hyatt Hotel in Washington, DC.
"The Obama administration's transparency programs are challenging government agencies to transform the vast storehouses of disparate, geographically dispersed data into actionable information," said Bill Lochten, director of Information Builders' Federal Group. "This event will provide public sector leaders at all levels with practical solutions for integrating existing data resources to measure performance results, report progress on collaboration and transparency, and achieve mission goals with less funding and personnel."
The symposium will feature a keynote address by Rishi Sood, research vice president at Gartner, who will provide a strategic overview of leading technology trends and drivers for public sector organizations. Tom Temin, co-host of the "Federal Drive" on Federal News Radio 1500 AM, will moderate a government-industry panel that will delve into how government agencies can deliver on priority performance management and accountability initiatives, such as the Government Performance and Results Modernization Act of 2010 (GPRMA) and the Improper Payments Eliminate and Recovery Act (IPERA), to improve operational efficiency and citizen services -- even with lower budgets.
Symposium attendees will also hear from government IT leaders on data governance, predictive analytics, mobility in government, and eliminating waste, fraud and abuse. Featured government speakers and panelists will include, but are not limited to:
Gary Winkler, former Program Officer, Enterprise Information Systems at the U.S. Army
Dan Mintz, former Chief Technology Officer of the U.S. Department of Transportation
Elizabeth Schaffer, Assistant Treasurer, United States Postal Service
