See New directions and map to building 33-07 at the bottom of this email !! 1:00 - 1:30 - Networking The Boeing Partners Network (BPN) 1:30 - 2:15 Bill Barker is the manager for Boeing Partners Network and has been active in this arena since originally managing the development of the Boeing PART Page. The PART page sells over $1 million in spare airplane parts over the Web each day and is one of the largest B2B sales sites worldwide. The BPN is a secure web site that provides a single company image to Boeing's partners, customers and suppliers using web technology. This service is provided as a shared resource to all Boeing organizations and will soon be 5 years old. As one of the earliest manifestations of what has became to be known as a 'Portal', BPN is moving into a fourth generation of user interface/feature changes and the development team is now evaluating their third portal "engine" since BPN was started. Currently 340 Boeing applications are accessible through BPN including the highly successful 'MyBoeingFleet' portal for airline customers. With over 3,700 companies logging in to this service, BPN is a unique and invaluable source of 'lessons learned' for companies that are contemplating or developing their own portal. Please join us as Bill Barker discusses 'lessons learned' from his cutting-edge experiences over the last five years of early 'portalhood' and his thoughts for the future of BPN. 2:15 - 2:30 Break 2:30 - 3:15 TBD 3:15-3:30 Q&A NEW; Directions and NEW map to Boeing @ Bellevue >From eastbound I- 90, take Exit 11A (SE 37th) through tunnel, left on SE Eastgate Way, right on 160th Ave. SE at the I- 90 Bellevue Business Park. >From westbound I- 90, take Exit 11 (161st Ave. SE), left on SE Eastgate Way, right on 160th Ave. SE at the I- 90 Bellevue Business Park. ======================================================================= To contact the list owner: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives at http://www.mail-archive.com/edi-l%40listserv.ucop.edu/
