Message From the Chair: Doug Tanabe

In 2002 IPMA actively worked with the IT community to meet unprecedented State budget challenges. This brought more change including the restructuring of the annual IPMA Executive Seminar. These changes proved to be a blessing in disguise as the restructured Executive Seminar (renamed as the Executive Summit for 2002 only) was the most productive in memory.

The 2002 Forum, "Silver Anniversary FORUM - 25 years of Service to the State", celebrated the longevity and continued popularity of the Forum. Approximately 1,000 people attended Forum and 100 people attended the Executive Luncheon held the day before Forum.

Our Professional Development Committee stepped up to the year's challenges with an aggressive program of seven free seminars for the State IT community. These seminars addressed: Windows Active Directory implementation, security, strategies for managing core system assets, project management, the virtual workplace, enterprise architecture, and XML and web services.

Communications was enhanced this year with a ground-breaking agreement with the Project Management Special Interest Group (PMSIG) under which IPMA provides web hosting and listserv services to the PMSIG. The Communications Committee also initiated a volunteer project to publish electronic versions of pre-1996 issues of IPMA News to celebrate IPMA's history of contributions to the IT community.

IPMA also made the fifth and final payments to both Saint Martin's College and South Puget Sound Community College fulfilling pledges totaling $50,000 to support information technology education.

I have enjoyed this past year as chair of the IPMA. Although I left the IPMA Board at the end of 2002, I did so with great confidence in the ability of IPMA to continue to deliver great service to the State IT community.

Committee Reports

Business Planning

Committee Chair:

Mike McVicker

Purpose:

The purpose of the Business Planning Committee is to build and foster the long-term business interests of the Association in order to provide the IPMA every possible advantage to pursue its mission.

Accomplishments for 2002:

In 1998, IPMA’s fostered closer links with St. Martin’s College and South Puget Sound Community College (SPSCC). Through two pledges totaling $50,000, IPMA was able to support the installation of an Information Services desk in the new St. Martin’s Library and support Local Area Network (LAN) and work station installations for the Associated Students of SPSCC in their new student union building. These investments in the future of our local educational institutions serve to illustrate IPMA’s strong continuing commitment to support our community. The pledges to both institutions were for $5,000 each year for five years. In 2002 IPMA made the last annual payments under each of these pledges. Saint Martin's new library and SPSCC's new student union building were opened in March 2001.

Objectives for 2003:

For the next year, Business Planning Committee has the following objectives:

Closely monitor and report on the Merrill Lynch Investment Program. Our investment strategy will be reviewed for additional investments during 2003.
Pursue other opportunities for providing IPMA sponsored events and supporting the information technology profession within Washington State Government.
Negotiate and manage contracts with private vendors to provide services for IPMA sponsored events.
Explore philanthropic opportunities in the community.
Consider opportunities for supporting capital improvement programs that advance information technology in State Government.

Executive Seminar

Committee Co-Chairs:

Phil Grigg and Darrel Riffe

Purpose:

The purpose of the Executive Seminar Committee is to provide an annual seminar that facilitates communication, networking and the promotion of information technology ideas for all senior state government information systems managers attending.

Accomplishments for 2002:

In April 2002 the IPMA Board decided to cancel the 2002 Executive Seminar due to the State's financial situation and to replace it with a smaller event focused on the current state government challenges (budget conditions, collective bargaining, etc.) The Board also decided that IPMA would pay the expenses of the attendees including transportation via chartered bus. The reduced size of the planned event (one representative per agency) dictated an invitation process with invitations extended to agencies that most consistently had been represented at previous IPMA executive seminars and/or DIS Customer Advisory Board meetings. The 2002 IPMA Executive Summit was held in October at Campbell's Resort (Lake Chelan) and 79 persons attended. The following presentations were made:

Stuart McKee, Director, Department of Information Services
"The Enterprise View of IT in Washington"
Marty Brown, Director, Office of Financial Management
"The State Budget Outlook / Workload Drivers"
Doug Tanabe, IPMA Chair
"IPMA Business"
Charles Mason, Teacher and Field Guide
"Glacial Lake Missoula and the Ice Age Floods"
Chang Mook Sohn, Executive Director, Office of The Forecast Council
"Washington's Current Economic and Revenue Conditions"
Gene Matt, Director, Department of Personnel
Sharon Whitehead, Deputy Director, Department of Personnel
Joyce Turner, Executive Policy Analyst, Office of Financial Management
Bill Joplin, Assistant Director State Procurement, General Administration
"Civil Service Reform, Collective Bargaining, and Contracting Out"
Allen Schmidt, Chief Technical Architect and Development Manager, Office of Financial Management
Kathy Rosmond, Senior Project Manager, Office of Financial Management
Doug Tanabe, Assistant Director, Department of Personnel
"The Enterprise Architecture View of HR/Payroll"
Josetta Bull, Engagement Manager for IT Strategic Plan in Sacramento, CA, Gartner Inc.
Phoebe Cameron, Project Manager of IT Strategic Plan in Sacramento, CA, Gartner Inc.
"Building an Enterprise Operating Framework"
Josetta Bull, Engagement Manager for IT Strategic Plan in Sacramento, CA, Gartner Inc.
Phoebe Cameron, Project Manager of IT Strategic Plan in Sacramento, CA, Gartner Inc.
"Transitioning to an Enterprise Approach"
Stuart McKee, Director, Department of Information Services
Thomas Bynum, Chair -- Customer Advisory Board and Assistant Commissioner of the Information Technology Services Division -- Department of Employment Security
Doug Tanabe, IPMA Chair and Assistant Director, Department of Personnel
"Where do we go from here?"

Objectives for 2003:

The IPMA will again offer an Executive Seminar. The 2003 event will be held September 23-25, 2003 at Campbell's Resort (Lake Chelan). We expect the seminar to be as successful as last year's.

Forum

Committee Co-Chairs:

Dennis Laine and Mike McVicker

Purpose:

Forum is an annual information technology seminar and trade show that has been held in Olympia since 1979. Forum continues to be an effective opportunity for vendors to demonstrate their products, for speakers to share their expertise and knowledge, and for state employees and others to attend free seminars and product demonstrations and to network. It is important to note that Forum is one of the premier technology shows in the Pacific Northwest and the largest to focus solely on the Public Sector.

Accomplishments for 2002:

For the third consecutive year Forum was held at the Saint Martin's College Pavilion in May. Improvements have been made each year, and in 2002 bunting was added to the railing surrounding the main floor. Forum 2002 was extremely successful and received high praise from participating vendors and attendees. There were 62 vendor booths and approximately 980 attendees. Having 62 vendor booths in one large room was well received. The Worthington Center facility provided great flexibility for setting up conference rooms and breakout rooms. The Forum 2002 theme of "Silver Anniversary FORUM, 25 years of Service to the State" celebrated the longevity and continued popularity of Forum.

The Executive Luncheon was held the day before Forum. Luncheon speaker State Health Officer Maxine Hayes’ presentation on Washington’s planning for homeland defense/response to terrorist attacks was well received by approximately 100 attendees.

Objectives for 2003:

The theme for Forum 2003 will be "Sharing Solutions". Twenty-four corporate sponsors have been signed up for this fiscal year. Vendor booth sales will start in January 2002. Keynote speakers have been approached and ideas for the breakout sessions have been identified. The Monday prior to Forum will be used to host two ½ day educational sessions. Similar to the Professional Development events, but hosted by the Forum Committee, these events will make use of the Worthington Center.

The following objectives have been endorsed for Forum 2003:

Keep Forum in the Olympia area utilizing the May Tuesday-Wednesday format.
Manage Forum so that it remains cost effective, realizes at least a 10% profit and meets or exceeds the expectations of attendees and participating vendors.
Coordinate with St. Martin’s staff to improve on the use of the Pavilion.
Increase attendance through advertising and marketing to ensure that all public sector information technology employees in the South Sound area are aware of Forum and the benefits of attending Forum.
Continue the use of IPMA’s web site to recruit vendors and to distribute information to participating vendors and attendees.
Move the Executive Luncheon to the week prior to Forum and schedule it as annual event at the Worthington Center.

Communications

Committee Co-Chairs:

Bob Monn and Mary Ellen Bradley

Purpose:

The Communications Committee provides IPMA members with information about actions taken by the Board of Directors, special events, seminars, other committee activities, and other items of interest. The Committee maintains the IPMA Internet web site as a means of interacting with IPMA members, sponsors, and others interested in IPMA activities. The Committee publishes the monthly newsletter and maintains the IPMA listserv.

The Communications Committee also is responsible for promoting membership in the IPMA and maintaining the membership roster.

Accomplishments for 2002:

Prepared IPMA News, IPMA's monthly newsletter with a total of 20 feature articles recruited from the IT community. Launched a volunteer project to publish electronic versions of pre-1996 issues of IPMA News and completed conversion and publication of approximately 20 percent of the available issues. Added regular feature linking to available newsletters from 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25 years ago to celebrate IPMA's history of contributions to the IT community.
Published IPMA's 2001 annual report.
Maintained the IPMA membership database; new members are added via a web form and updates and deletions are made manually.
Administered the IPMA listserv mailing list and created a listserv mailing list for the Project Managers Special Interest Group sponsored by IPMA.

Work with other IPMA committees to support IPMA events; provide marketing communications for these events and support on-line event registration.

Support the annual on-line election process for Board members.

Professional Development

Committee Co-Chairs:

Sheryl Hall and Dennis Jones

Purpose:

The purpose of the Professional Development Committee is to provide educational and networking programs for the membership and the IT community. The Committee works with IT vendors and state agencies to provide programs at no cost or minimal cost to the IT community. The Committee also may sponsor selected formal training events to be provided on a fee basis.

Accomplishments for 2002:

The Professional Development Committee provided seven seminars during 2002. The 2002 program was as follows:

Date	Topic	Presenters	Registered	Attended
Jan. 23	"I Can't See the Forest through the Trees" -- Windows 2000 Multi-Agency Single Forest	Netdesk, DIS, GA, OFM, DOP	131	105
Feb. 20	Building a Security Program	Sierra Systems, Alliance Enterprises, Microsoft, DIS, OFM and DOH	75	Unknown
Mar. 20	Harvesting the Gold: Strategies for Managing Core System Assets	Milestone Technology, DIS Digital Government Applications Academy	80	63
Apr. 17	Implementing a Project Management Discipline	Robert Francis Group, State agencies	103	79
Jun. 19	Virtual Workplace	Right! Systems, Inc., State Agency Panel	79	51
Aug. 21	Enterprise Architecture	Gartner Consulting, The Frank Russell Company, and state agency staff	82	Unknown
Oct. 16	"Escaping the Legacy Jungle": XML and Web Services in Digital Government	Semantic Arts, Inc. Coraxis Corp. Netdesk Corp. DSHS and DIS	116	83

Seminar participants have rated the sessions very highly and wish them to be continued.
The committee researched some other facilities but decided that St. Martin’s was our best alternative – particularly when looking at the combination of convenience, and combined costs of the facility and catering. Saint Martin's has been very easy to work with and has done a great job of supporting us in preparing the room and responding to our needs during the seminars.
Based on feedback received from 2001, the room setup was changed to a "classroom" style from a "theater" style, giving participants a roomier feel and providing a tabletop for handout materials, taking notes, etc. We increased the room size from a quarter-room to a half-room to accommodate this layout. The audience has responded well to this layout.
The registration process was updated for the October 16 session and worked very well. Registrants are now able to put themselves on a waiting list when the registration limit has been reached. Combined with more reminders to participants to cancel if they do not plan to attend, we hope to increase participation.

Objectives for 2003:

The Professional Development Committee has the following objective for 2003:

Provide six seminars in the current half day format as outlined below:

Date	Topic	Presenters
Jan. 22, 2003 Wednesday afternoon	Software Requirements Development and Outsourcing Management – An Overview for Managers	Doug Muir, Software Productivity Center
Mar. 25, 2003 Tuesday afternoon	Wireless Networking / Network Management	Cisco Systems State agencies
Apr. 17, 2003 Thursday morning	Data Warehouse / Business Intelligence	(To be announced)
Jun. 25, 2003 Wednesday morning	Project Management - Assembling the Team - Getting Started	Diane Vasarkovy, Wolf Consulting Tom Crawford, Dye Management Group
Sep. 23, 2003 Tuesday afternoon	(To be announced)	(To be announced)
Oct. 30, 2003 Thursday morning	(To be announced)	(To be announced)

2003 Potential changes / improvements / issues for discussion:

Continue and refine the new registration process.
Provide some afternoon seminars to accommodate those that have difficulty with morning sessions.
Provide some Tuesday and Thursday seminars to accommodate those that have difficulty with Wednesday sessions.
Should we aim at least one seminar more towards "small agencies"?
Should we have a paid "featured speaker"?
Should we tie the theme of the September 23^rd seminar into the theme of the Executive Conference?
Will the September 23^rd seminar conflict with the Executive Conference? (Move to August instead?)

2002 was the final year of five-year pledges of $5,000 each to St. Martin’s College and South Puget Sound Community College.
