The IT and Telecom SIG targets highly knowledgeable and experienced project management and technology professionals in the Information Technology and Telecommunications industries. Our members are leaders of technically advanced projects that involve both Information Technology and Telecommunications. They help one another through scholarship, mentoring, and online information exchange programs. The SIG directly supports members' work efforts (and the earning of PDUs) through networking, information and tools provided in newsletters, on the web site, and frequent webinars.

Technology and Telecommunications are part of the majority of mission-critical projects today. These projects often create real business advantage and are the underpinnings of major change. They share many common attributes, requiring:

• highly technical teams
• distributed, often global management
• broad-based collaboration
• robust telecommunications infrastructure
• significant cultural change and business transformation
• complex integration issues
• proven ROI
• high sponsor expectations

Additionally, the IT and Telecom SIG serves the needs of project managers in industries in which information technology and telecommunications are central to the business, such as Finance and Manufacturing. Those dealing with advanced technologies and approaches (SOA, SAAS, outsourcing, VOIP, Web 2.0, etc.), members of technology consulting firms and telecommunications infrastructure firms also find particular value in our offering.
