Métier, Ltd. Announces WorkLenz+CRM

Métier, Ltd., an innovator in project portfolio management software and services, announced recently the introduction of a new offering, WorkLenz+CRM. The solution integrates WorkLenz project portfolio management (PPM) with customer relationship management (CRM) to drive the first "supply chain management for the project portfolio." The new offering will be showcased at salesforce.com's user conference from September 16-19 at the Moscone Center in San Francisco.

WorkLenz+CRM embodies Métier's work forward theme -- sell smarter, staff faster, and manage better. It replaces the traditional, factory-based supply chain concept with project-based organizations' resources, services and sales prospects. Hence, WorkLenz+CRM drives an optimized "supply chain" for the project portfolio, tracking opportunities throughout the entire sales and project life cycles – from lead management to project delivery to project closure. The system provides seamless transitions from the CRM lifecycle to the project lifecycle with critical data for accurate decision-making shared in both systems. It uses past performance data to proactively alert sales professionals of risk, resource capacity, and schedule issues in like projects. Once sales are closed and projects are completed, WorkLenz+CRM empowers users and managers to learn from this past performance, selecting the best revenue-generating opportunities and delivering them most efficiently.

"WorkLenz+CRM is the first in a suite of follow-on product offerings to WorkLenz for modern project-based organizations," said Douglas Clark, chief executive officer of Métier. "We chose to integrate with Salesforce first, since the software is the clear market leader in CRM. The first offering of WorkLenz+CRM is targeted to commercial organizations and government systems integrators, with a customized offering for the government to follow by year-end."

WorkLenz+CRM is available for demonstration and deployment at www.metier.com. To learn more about partnership and integration opportunities within the WorkLenz+ product suite, please contact Métier at 877-965-9501 or info@metier.com.
