A successful project is one that is completed on time, within budget and delivers predefined business benefits to the customer. Core Systems has considerable experience of complex system implementations. Based on our collective experience we have developed a model for system development and implementation, which has proved very successful in practice. It involves closely managed teamwork, involving Core Systems, the customer and third party service providers who have a role in delivering the solution.
The project manager is a key player in the team who has responsibility for co-ordination of people and resources throughout the project life cycle. They act as an interface between customer and service provider ensuring that customer requirements are identified and delivered effectively. Part of their role is to facilitate communication, which is achieved through a series of regular meetings.
Our Project Model involves;
- Defining the scope of the project
- Identification of roles and responsibilities
- Establishing effective communication lines
- Accurate specification of project outcomes and objectives
- Establishing system performance criteria
- Project review meetings
- Involvement of end users in the development and testing phases
- Managing system implementation and user training
- System hand over and sign-off
- Phased payment linked with target milestones
