Enterprise Information Technology Services has received the 2008 Project of the Year Award. Given by the Atlanta chapter of Project Management Institute, the award recognizes EITS’ Strategic Planning and Project Management.
The project team, which included 25 staff members from across several EITS divisions and departments, was honored at an awards ceremony in Atlanta late last year.
Members of the project team are Greg Ashley, Chris Baines, Mike Dennis, Mike Ellerson, Kristen Green, Steve Hilliard, Annie Hollis, Tammy Pounds, Rehan Khan, Paul Keck, Lynn Latimer, Rich Lebo, Shannon Marable, Georgia Moore, Brendan Mullen, Jason Orrill, Mushtaq Pasha, Mike Perkins, Greg Topp, Patrick Wagman, Brian Whigham, Curtis Winger, Kim Woods, Chris Workman and Lili Zhao.
“This is truly a team award,” said Latimer, project spokesperson and associate director of information technology planning and decision support at EITS. “The project involves the team’s efforts over the past 18 months to define EITS projects and services, to establish a project management process and to bring the Clarity project and portfolio management tool online.”
The Project of the Year Award recognizes the accomplishments of a project and its team for superior performance and execution of exemplary project management. After winning this award, the EITS Strategic Planning and Project Management is being entered in the 2009 PMI Project of the Year Award global competition.
