Project Management Services
We help clients achieve project success by supplementing their team with experienced project managers. We have proven project management tools specific to trading technology systems to align scope with realistic and achievable timelines. We help you plan, manage, and mitigate risks with the outcome of improved leadership transparency, more agile decision making and better control over the project outcome.
We know the solutions you are delivering and can provide valuable input into realistic scope within the system’s core capabilities. We will help you identify where business processes may not fit within the technology and work with your team to identify solution alternatives if needed. Starting with a realistic and well-defined scope prevents lack of customer buy-in to the delivered solution and allows for realistic project planning and better definition of risks.
Common outcomes are enhanced collaboration between the project team and business team, requirements definition and traceability, well defined project plans with milestones and risks, and consultation on functional and technical scoping decisions.
