0907 - Summary/Objective
0908 -
090801 - Followed up work at ref SDS 11 line 42, ref SDS 3 line 58.
090802 -
090803 - Received notice of PMI meeting at the Santa Clara Convention Center on
090804 - 951214.  It is in the PMI Newsletter.  I did not scan it into the
090805 - system.

0911 - Project World
0912 -
091201 - This PMI dinner meeting is part of the "Project World" event PMI is
091202 - sponsoring along with other organizations.  The dinner will be a joint
091203 - meeting with IEEE, and include seminar registration for Project World
091204 - attendees.
091205 -
091206 - Cost will be $30 and include admission to the Project World exhibit
091207 - hall.
091208 -
091209 -
091210 -    Agenda
091211 -
091212 -    Looks like there will be a two hour period from 1700 - 1900 to
091213 -    visit the Exhibit hall during what is called "registration."
091214 -
091215 -    Dinner is from 1900 - 2000.
091216 -
091217 -    Dinner panel discussion:  2000 - 2100
091218 -
091219 -       Generally it appears an hour is too little time for
091220 -       presentation on this topic, in light of the number of panel
091221 -       members.
091222 -
091223 -
091224 - Dinner Meeting Presentation
091225 -
091226 - The subject for the dinner presentation is:
091227 -
091228 -            The Effect of International Project Management Standards
091229 -            on Major Multinational Corporation.
091230 -
091231 - The panel will discuss the impact of international project management
091232 - standards on multinational corporations, as well as the issue of what
091233 - those standards should be (PMBOK? ISO 9000 and beyond?) and who should
091234 - establish and maintain them.
091235 -
091236 -    Analysis - Background
091237 -
091238 -    This is issue is part of the scope contemplated by the original NCC
091239 -    PMI Event plan ref SDS 5 line 83, and ref SDS 5 line 119.  This was
091240 -    subsequently dropped from the NCC Event scope, however, it appears
091241 -    from its inclusion here to be of interest to the PMI memebership.
091242 -    Perhaps this one hour event will indicate whether a broader
091243 -    presentation would be helpful.
091244 -
091245 -         Asilomar Speakers
091246 -
091247 -         John Kahl and Roger Glass are on the speaker panel for this
091248 -         event at Project World.  We can assess their ability to
091249 -         accomplish the scope for the Asilomar event, per ref SDS 13
091250 -         line 312.
091251 -
091252 -             [See follow up on Roger at ref SDS 14 line 129.]
091253 -
091254 -
091255 -    PMBOK and ISO
091256 -
091257 -    These standards were considered in evaluating and comparing PMBOK
091258 -    and ISO 10006 at ref SDS 8 line 55.
091259 -
091260 -        Question
091261 -
091262 -        Why does this event cite PMBOK and ISO 9000 instead of ISO
091263 -        10006?
091264 -
091265 -    Communication Metrics
091266 -
091267 -    Perhaps the panel would address how firms implement the
091268 -    requirements for "aligning communications" in the PMBOK and for
091269 -    traceability and continual learning in the ISO 10006 standards.
091270 -
091271 -    What are their firms doing to experiment with tools to make it
091272 -    practical to use these standards?
