  Thoughts From Xinify: Introducing Noland Eidsmoe, Sr. VP, Client Services, North America
 

Noland

 At Xinify, we put our clients first by doing what is right for them and not worry about the financial or political consequences. Because of this, we have one of the strongest client reference bases of any IT Governance company. It’s who we are. We love bringing effective solutions to our clients – it represents the added value of dealing with Xinify. To this end, we have begun a concerted effort to focus on the PM, because after all, all data in Clarity is Project Data.  It is the PM that has ultimate control over the quality of this data and when aggregated, it's
  company-level data that is affected by the PM. To provide this focus, the Xinify Project Management Practice has been formed  focusing on the PM by creating a methodology that embodies PM Assessment, PM Training, PM Staffing, and PMO. Checkout the Xinify website to find out more about this program.
