AVEVA Announces ISEIT Americas 2006 Technology Conference for the Process, Power and Marine Industries
- Co-located with VIEWpoint Americas AVEVA User Group Meeting
AVEVA (LSE: AVV) will host its annual International Symposium for Engineering IT (ISEIT) conference for the Americas region October 23-24, 2006 at the Southshore Harbour Resort, Clear Lake, Texas. ISEIT takes an executive-level look at the business and technical challenges of building and maintaining engineering assets, with a program that combines keynote presentations, panel discussions led by industry experts, project case studies, and briefings on AVEVA's newest technology and future vision.
ISEIT Americas goes "Back to the Future" this year, as AVEVA celebrates its 30th anniversary of helping EPCs and Owner/Operators meet the challenges of the most rigorous engineering projects. How can past knowledge and experience be applied to solve today's problems, and tomorrow's challenges? Highlights of the program include a panel discussion on data interoperability led by Ric Jackson, Executive Director of FIATECH, and a second panel that examines the benefits and issues of utilizing 3D laser scanning on brownfield and retrofit projects, led by Tom Greaves of SPARPoint Research. The program will also feature business and technology briefings with AVEVA executives and customer case studies covering integrated Project Execution and Global Collaboration.

I'm all over it, me and my boss are going to go. Really looking forward to it. More people need to go. there will be some great stuff happening. Early registration deadline is Sept 15!!! Hurry up and sign up!
I Just posted alot of new stuff on the viewpointamercias.com website yesterday. Agendas, Promo-Flyers, Nominee Form for "Extreme Engineering", etc. Also, the early bird registration got pushed to Sept 30. Hurry now and register online. We want to make this a big show of how our users are committed to "Sharing the Knowledge".
The conference is all about the users and learning from each other with workshops, panel discussions and presentations. You get first hand knowledge from other users who have successfully worked thru problems with PDMS and are willing to share their insight.
I spoke to a rep from Navisworks, I think he is going to try to get a booth/table there. he is very excited about it. His product is very impressive and I hope that he does show, because I think alot of users would like to see it.
I tried like crazy to push NavisWorks last year because it was a super product. I help a reseller here in Kansas City sell NavisWorks to PDMS Users do to my belief that it works great, very inexpensive and has a free viewer. If anyone wants a DEMO go to http://www.s2solutions.biz/ or email me at [email]dave@cadfusion.net[/email] and we can get you taken care of and help out in any way with phone support, email support, etc.
