Providing Effective Project Management Services

Achieving Success with the Right People and Process

What gives us an edge over other providers is our powerful combination of process and people. We believe that these two elements help prevent your project from encountering unanticipated costs, frustrating redirects, and unnecessary delays.

The Right People

We have project management professionals who are Certified Security Project Managers (CSPM), a designation by the Security Industry Association (SIA). Our CSPM team demonstrates mastery of security solutions. They excel in managing technical and complex security projects. Their effective communication skills allow them to complete each stage of your project as efficiently as possible.

Once you engage in our project discovery stage and accept the proposed solution, we move you to the delivery phase where we scale your project as needed by complexity, scope, and size. We also assign you to our CSPM trained team to oversea your project from start to finish.

IT projects are challenging, both logistically and technically.Having your project handled by a project manager, therefore,is crucial in maintaining ongoing and open communication, coordination, and documentation among the various concurrent deployment teams, technologies, and initiatives. You can expect our security project manager to do the following:

Understand the goals and needs of your organization
Come up with an appropriate project management plan that meets your requirements
Keep up with the progress of the project team, which can include system designers, system engineers, and computer programmers
Monitor schedules and costs while maintaining quality in the development and installation of a security system
Facilitate efficient communication across all project levels to stay on track in reaching the goal of the project and help recognize any potential complications, risks, or opportunities.
Stay up to date with any changes or advances in project methodology, technology, and equipment

The Right Process

When it comes to the delivery of your project, we adhere to the Project Management Lifecycle Methodology as our standard. We have selected this methodology, as it works well with the Project Management Institute’s (PMI) best practices.

Additionally, we follow the strategy of define, deliver, and review over the course of our project management practice. This enables us to maintain a methodology that meets industry standards.

Here’s what we do for each strategy:

Define –Our project managers outline the tools, processes, and standards that they will use during technology deployments and coordinates the delivery of project services.
Deliver – Our project managers plan and deliver projects following our processes and standards. Additionally, they leverage a structured methodology that is repeatable, measurable, qualified, and consistent, as well as structure the project in four stages: Initiation, Planning, Execution, and Closeout.
Review – We maintain a project model overseen by experienced leaders. These leaders continually evaluate and review the standards and processes, as well as project delivery. This particular strategy allows us to drive constant improvement into our methodology and execute a successful project

Why Project Planning and Management Matters

Proper project management and planning comes with a range of benefits. Project management is vital for the following reasons:

Defining the Components of the Project Clearly before It Starts –A project tends to be more chaotic when it has complex components. Effective project management tames this chaos by mapping out a clear and well-defined plan from beginning to end.
Creates an Agreed Plan and Schedule – Proper management and planning help eliminate schedule overruns and delays, as well as provides a plan for the people involved in the project.
Maximizes Resources –Project tracking and management enables teams to use available resources efficiently.
Helps to Manage Integration –Integration creates the value aspect of projects. Project managers ensure smooth integration between new and existing systems.
Helps Regulate Costs –Project management significantly minimizes the likelihood of budget overruns by ensuring the project remains within scope and on time.
Manages Quality Continuously –Project management helps to define, manage, and control quality.
Increases Knowledge – A business acquires more knowledge over time as it takes on more projects. Project management helps collect and retain this knowledge.
