May 21, 2004 - The San Diego Regional Chamber of Commerce announced today the finalists of the 2004 Small Business Awards.

Several quality applicants with fine individual work and collective contribution were recognized for their regional business excellence.

Specifically, Silicon Space Inc. was named finalist for the “Most Innovative Product” Award; distinguishing SSI’s product, PMToolbox.

PMToolbox is an innovative application of advanced web-based document management technology enabling net-centric automation of core US Federal Government Program Management business process throughout the Acquisition Process Lifecycle.

PMToolbox improves processes and gains efficiencies, increases speed to capability via actionable information, enhances performance visibility with metrics measurement and roll-up reporting, centralizes program data in a secure online environment for anytime / anywhere access, and shifts administrative burdens to PMToolbox through automated workflows and approvals.

PMToolbox’s ROI is impressive, including improved efficiency of deliverable cycle / turn around time by 30% -50%, estimating savings of up to 4 man years within 1st year, and reduced contracting officer processing time from 1 hour to 3 minutes.

“The ability to see the status of the program and deliverables online and at any point in the process is invaluable,” said one client, “The team’s effort is definitely paying off and the PMToolbox (specifically CDRL Manager) is a big success. Efforts to date have greatly exceeded my expectation.”
