(ISM) today announced that William "Bill" Banks, CGEIT, will be speaking at HP Software Universe on Wednesday, June 17 at 9:00am. The financial and operational benefits of virtualization are real, but the accompanying management challenges are equally real.

Attendees will leave this session with:

For over twenty years, Bill has assisted more than forty medium and large IT organizations in designing and implementing their governance, service, and asset management performance improvement strategies. He is also the creator of ISM's proprietary Framework for IT SuccessSM, which combines ISM's service, portfolio, and financial management experience with best practices from ITIL , COBIT , CMMI , and the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK ) into an integrated set of processes to help IT run like "a business within the business".

ISM is both an HP Silver Partner and a VMware Authorized Consultant, bringing a unique perspective to deploying the virtual infrastructure. ISM, under Bill Banks' direction, not only has the unparalleled ability to implement the technical aspects of a virtualization initiative, but has also extended the IT business processes in its Framework for IT Success (a.k.a. Fritz ) to account for the dynamic, flexible nature of virtualization.

Bill Banks will be available for personal consultation during HP Software Universe in the Integrated Solutions Management booth (#605).
