Connecting CA Clarity PPM with Development Tool Stacks from IBM, HP, Microsoft and more
*** See more on: http://tasktop.com/resources/videos *** Presented by Wesley Coelho, Director of Business Development, and Robert Elves, co-founder of Tasktop Technologies For many organizations, CA Clarity PPM is the right tool for managing the big picture of projects and portfolios. A key component of these projects often involves a software development initiative. But when it comes down to executing on a software project, the development organization will use a specialized software project management solution such as HP Quality Center, IBM Rational Team Concert, Microsoft TFS or JIRA. This can leave business stakeholders clueless as to what's actually happening in the development shop while developers are also left in the dark on changing business priorities. In this webinar, learn how to apply Tasktop Sync to engage business stakeholders in the software development activity and provide accurate project status and progress metrics while enabling developers to ensure their software aligns with corporate goals.

Editor's Notes
- Hello everyone and thanks for joining us in today. My name is Wesley Coelho and I’ll be your presenter today along with Robert Elves. Today's webinar is titled “Connecting CA Clarity PPM with Development Tool Stacks from IBM, HP, Microsoft and more”. In this webinar we'll talk a bit about the problem organizations have when their high level project and portfolio management is disconnected from the actual execution of software development projects.We'll be keeping the lines muted because we're recording the webinar and will make the recording available after the session. Feel free to ask questions vie the chat window or Q&A window and we'll answer them as we go if possible or if not we'll follow up with you after the session.Let's get started by talking about the problem we're addressing...ConceptsDemo
- or many developers, the world of the project office is an alien one, with its staff talking about investment portfolios, resource pools and demand management. The same can be said of the PMO when trying to understand developers who work in scrums and talk about CI and GitHub. But with the advent of faster delivery times and Agile methods, development and the PMO need to work together in more dynamic, flexible and aligned ways. That means traditional integration approaches, such as spreadsheets and email, need to be replaced with automated integration. This need led us to develop a connector for CA Clarity PPM, which enables the two teams to work together more effectively sharing work across organizational and tool boundaries.
- So here’s an example to make this more concrete. Let’s say we’re running a sophisticated bank heist operation going on and we’re using CA Clarity to manage the overall project and there are several software components involved…
- End result: Time is wasted on manual information gathering processes and potentially the wrong things are getting worked on or they’re getting completed in the wrong order.You can’t rob a bank without a fast-moving team
- Take the silos created by separate tools and…Describe the systems and how the data needs to flow between them.
