How are we performing against plan?

EmployeesWhat are my teams working on?

Do we have the right skill mix?

Do we have enough employees?

VendorsWhich vendors are strategic?

When are our license renewals due?

What’s our spend by vendor?

CustomersWhen will my project be done?

Why can’t more be done?

ForecastWhat are we delivering this month, this

quarter, in the next six months?

What happens when the business

makes changes?

ContractorsWhat are the contractors working on?

Do we have too many contractors?

Are we getting enough value?

The PPM Market

5

!

Large-Scale Enterprise Software Solutions

– Small number of large vendors (Computer Associates, Hewlett Packard, Oracle, IBM…)

– Costly software licensing, implementation, and annual maintenance

– Tailored to large organizations

Boutique / Specialized Offerings

– Large number of small vendors

– Cost-effective, but narrowly focused solutions

– Appropriate for small- to mid-sized organizations

Vitreous’ proFUSION™

– Provides 80% of the Large-Scale Enterprise solution functionality

– Designed for insanely-rapid configuration to meet the needs of ANY sized organization

– Provides a rich suite of integrated functionality in one solution

– SaaS Model provides cost-effective and timely implementation and support

Consider the potential of offering enterprise-class

capabilities at a fraction of the price and typical

implementation timeline of the current market leaders!

But, what about the large

un-served mid-market?

The SaaS Model

6

• Traditional PPM solutions are built on an expensive license and implementation model

– Computer Associates Clarity, Hewlett Packard’s PPM, Planview, etc..

• Most organizations don’t need and/or can’t afford all of the features and functions that come with these solutions

• Vitreous offers 80% of the core PPM functionality “out of the box” at a fraction of the price and implementation time of these traditional solutions

• Software as a Service (SaaS) is a model of software deployment where an application is licensed for use as a service provided to customers on demand alleviating the customer's burden of implementing and managing the application

• proFUSION™ is a suite of applications

built around many of the core process

and data needs of an organization

• It provides integrated project,

resource, and financial portfolio

management tools

• It is built on a federated data model

that provides extensive reporting and

analytical capabilities

• It provides the framework for standard

service delivery processes and

transparent management

• It was designed to be integrated with

legacy and 3rd party point solutions

proFUSION™ provides the standard tool & central data repository

to support one-stop integrated management & control
