SEATTLE, WA--(Marketwire - June 23, 2009) - Daptiv,

has been named a winner of the 'Project & Portfolio Management Innovation
Award' for Best Portfolio Analysis by a group of IT industry executives.
Daptiv was nominated in all categories, including Best Solution: PPM

awards were part of the 2009 Project & Portfolio Management Summit, held
this past week in Garden Grove, CA.
The 'Project & Portfolio Management Innovation Awards' are the only awards
voted on solely by the attending IT Decision-Makers who directly influence
their customers' technology buying decisions. After two days of boardroom
presentations and one-on-one meetings, the decision-makers vote on the
products and services presented at the show.

difficult-to-track initiatives and processes across departments, from
marketing and HR to IT and finance. This is achieved through Daptiv PPM, an

provide real-time insight into the everyday work that's going on across
projects and teams, and to ensure that work is fully aligned with business
priorities," said Jeff Pancottine, CEO of Daptiv. "Now more than ever,

organization so that they can make smart, informed decisions on-the-fly."

analysts and both leading and emerging vendors. The event focused on
initiatives and issues specific to the buyers and sellers of Project &
Portfolio Management solutions, with a business intensive format that
