OpenAir to Rollout Major New Feature in Upcoming Release


BOSTON, MA--(Marketwire - May 16, 2008) - OpenAir, the world's leading provider of on-demand project management software, today announced that Earned Value Management (EVM) functionality would be included in their May 17 software release.

"As our customers embrace more advanced project management techniques, we happily are responding to their calls for EVM functionality," said Ed Marshall, VP of Sales and Marketing. "Given our solution's market-leading project accounting capacity, this represents a natural evolution of our functionality and increases our appeal to organizations of all sizes."

A long-established industry standard in government-related project management techniques, EVM is seeing increasing adoption in commercial project management organizations as a way to quantify Project Status, allowing an organization to more quickly focus on projects lagging behind in cost and/or schedule.

EVM will be included as a part of a number of enhancements rolled out during OpenAir's bimonthly release on May 17.
