Avilar: Will New Leadership Translate Into Market Leadership?

We recently spoke with the leadership of Avilar, a learning and talent management solutions firm. That briefing resulted in this 6 page research note.  Here is an excerpt from the Overview section of the report:

We recently received a short briefing from Avilar’s new CEO, Tom Grobicki. Tom is not new to Avilar (he was one of the founders) but we wanted to hear his take on the company, its product line and its prospects.  

Avilar is a competency management and LMS (learning management system) provider.

 

The company believes that the continuing ‘graying’ or outright retirement of many talented workers will make talent management a critical business competency that many mid-large firms have not adequately addressed.”

CA Clarity PPM: Insight into Services Initiatives

For our second report in the PSA (Professional Services Automation) and PPM (Project Portfolio Management) space, we examined CA Clarity PPM. This product has its roots in the Niku solution that CA bought several years ago. Our assessment of the product line remains bullish as the product possesses considerable functional depth and is well-suited to internal service organizations. The software also integrates well with a number of other CA products and is, therefore, a core product for the company. 

The report has the following sections:

  • Overview
  • Who is CA Clarity PPM?
  • Solution Functionality
  • CA Clarity PPM in the Federal Government
  • The CA Clarity PPM Difference
  • The CA Clarity Customer
  • Prognosis

The report is available for purchase for $395. Orders can be placed via our site’s request page or via email at: contact@vitalanalysis.com.
