In early June, 2009 the CWG Board of Directors approved an
initiative to charter local or regional Chapters. The concept is not
new because there has been a very successful chapter in Western
Michigan in the USA based in Grand Rapids that was the model for the formation and
expanding the concept. There are many SAP customers with complex
products and use the VC and IPC in this area and thanks to to Steven
Schneider and Kevin Meyers for forming and continuing to get the
message out.
A second CWG chapter has been chartered for the
northeastern part of the USA and for now includes: New York Metro area
and New England states. The chapter organizers are Daniel Naus and
James Cross.
For more information on how to form a chapter in your area read on...
This year’s North American conference is scheduled for one of our best venues and back by popular demand, Marco Island, Florida.
This forum provides you the VC and IPC professional and the configuration manager with detailed insight into
peer-proven approaches and with some innovative customer project presentations. There are more opportunities
to network this year with others that come from different industries and
from around the globe to share best practice experiences and knowledge. You also have the opportunity to engage
directly with SAP and their partner community and learn about current and
future solutions.
Registration will be opening soon.
This
year we used only an electronic, online survey versus using a paper
survey and would like to thank each of you that participated. This
survey was important to the CWG because it helped us gather information
quickly with some reporting that is very difficult to create or collect
manually.
If you took the survey you probably noticed this survey is a little
different because you could exit the survey and return to where you
left off, so it was not necessary to fill out the entire survey all at
once. The electronic survey will be a process we will use in future
conferences as well and really seek you candid responses and especially
your comments.
The 2009 European CWG Conference Agenda & Abstracts download. We encourage all attendees to download and/or print this document
because hardcopies will NOT be available at the conference this year.
We are pushing for an all electronic CWG and this holds true for
Conference Agendas/Abstracts/Surveys. We look forward to seeing you at
the Berlin Conference !
We had a really nice opportunity for all members attending the 2008 North American CWG Conference.
Configit, a long time sponsor of the CWG, hosted a Sunset Dinner Cruise on board the "Marco Island Princess" on Tuesday evening October 7, 2008. Space was limited, but fun was had by all. Thank you Configit.
