Affordability Management Symposium 

December 7, 2006  (8:00am-1:00pm) Complimentary Breakfast and Lunch 

Hilton Montreal Airport Hotel, Dorval, Canada

For more than 30 years PRICE Systems has provided the US Government and Contractors solutions that combine cost estimating, project control, and knowledge management, ensuring project success at every decision gateway. Our customers use PRICE tools to increase visibility, minimize risk and cost, accelerate project development, and improve the effectiveness of project selection, control and delivery.  In short, our mission is to provide our customers “True Program Success.”

This free program has been created to share and expose issues common to Aerospace and Defense Program decision makers in Canada and the US. We have assembled a group of leaders from government and industry to discuss their approaches to common program affordability challenges. By doing so we hope to provide an opportunity to learn, discuss best practices and compare lessons learned.  At the end of our session we will conduct a tools demonstration to further highlight some of the day's topics.
