As OnePlan’s US-based Premier Partner, PPM Works was excited to attend, participate, and sponsor this year’s conference event.

Michelle and the planning team did an excellent job with the preparation, attendee opportunities, and fun activities.

On Wednesday, OnePlan CEO, Joe Larcheid provided an engaging vision of the industry and the solution, referencing the ‘Never Normal’ space we all live in today. @Matt walked us through the detailed product roadmap as customers were eager to see and provide feedback. @ForeignDude shared the progress and future of the OneConnect product family and @Michael led the customer engagement sessions. Our customer, @JaredIvie shared Redeux’s Strategic Portfolio Management journey and their challenges and wins alongside with why partnering with PPM Works was a winning formula for their fast-growing organization.

As your go-to OnePlan partner, PPM Works always add to the fun – at this conference we sponsored the out of the conference hall events, where clients, team members, and our team enjoyed connecting, listening, and sharing experiences over amazing food, drinks, fun, and laughter on the roof of the Margaritaville Resort in San Diego.

The entire event had a positive atmosphere – we participated in engaging conversations, break-outs, and listened to challenges and successes across every facet of the business and not just those related to the tool.

The reason we were there was to share our experiences and learn from other clients. The team content hit that goal and beyond. I believe the conference was worth every moment and would I recommend you attend next year if you are a OnePlan client. If you are interested in exploring the Modern PPM solution for strategic portfolio management, reach out to us we look forward to understand your needs and exploring the possibility of strengthening your team.

Some of my key take-aways from attending the 2024 OnePlan Customer Conference were Customer Engagement, Roadmap and Vision, and Positive Collaboration. These were echoed and validated by other attendees and during our recap sessions. If you have any questions or comments, we invite you to share with us.
