PROJECT MANAGEMENT When acting as a project manager, Vertex approaches every project
with the same proven process. These project management process
groups include:
Initiating: With over 20 years experience
in the telecommunications and construction industries, we bring
insight to developing and estimating the resources necessary
to get any project off the ground. An authorized, defined scope
of work at the outset helps keep project budgets and timelines
attainable during the project lifecycle.
Planning: To ensure success on every project—whether
it is construction, equipment, power, new technology or government
compliance—we feel it is important that a project plan
has clear, defined objectives and corresponding strategies to
achieve those objectives. We share this plan with the team so
that ultimately, the project will meet its ROI objectives.
Execution:. Vertex has developed relationships
with many quality vendors, including industry-specific consultants,
engineers, architects, equipment suppliers, general contractors
and telecom specialty contractors. We are able to coordinate
people and resources and integrate all project activities in
accordance with the project plan. This is instrumental in our
ability to make a project successful.
Monitoring: With state-of-the-art software
management tools and a hands-on approach, we continually track
each project to identify strengths and weaknesses in the overall
project plan and take corrective action when necessary. Vertex's
collaborative approach and excellent communication means that
both clients and vendors will be kept informed at every step
of the project. Whenever possible, we deliver information in "real
time" through
e-mail as well as online and video technology, allowing project
stakeholders to view their project's progress and make decisions,
take corrective action if necessary and keep the project on track.
Closing: Vertex completes every project with
a formal close-out, where we address all aspects of the project
including project costs, issues and delays, and areas for improvement.
Ultimately, we use this process to gain client acceptance of
the project. Our goal is to help our clients learn and objectively
develop best practice techniques for future projects.
When you hire Vertex, you receive hands-on
project management, problem resolution and collaboration between
your internal employees, contractors, vendors and any other members
of a project team. Vertex is committed to seeing every project
through to completion and ensuring that our clients are 100% satisfied.
