Become an IPSS Sponsor
The SEI is seeking sponsors that understand the benefits
of process improvement and are willing to bring their vision and financial
commitment to this project. Candidates for sponsorship include:
- large organizations seeking to optimize the performance of their small work groups through an investment in process improvement
- large organizations depending on the performance
of small businesses in their supply chain to win contracts and deliver
solutions
- government (national and provincial) entities seeking
to accelerate the entrance of their small businesses into the global
marketplace
- regional development authorities responsible for
improving the competitiveness of local small businesses
Is your organization a potential sponsor of this critical
research? You may be, if your organization is interested in the following sponsorship benefits:
- working with a world class group of researchers
to create the next set of solutions to improve processes (and competitiveness)
in small business or in small work groups
- providing input into these solutions so that they better
suit the reality of doing business in a globally connected world
- seeing the future of process as it is
being built, and getting a head start using emerging techniques, tools, and standards
- leveraging your R&D investments with other
non-competing organizations with similar needs
- receiving recognition for creating one of the
next global standards for process improvement technology
If the above describes your organization, contact SEI Customer Relations at customer-relations@sei.cmu.edu for more information.
