Execution is essential to delivering change. Outsourcing is an additional tool used to successfully deliver a service or project. When organizations outsource IT projects, their execution must be overseen.

 

Organizations and IT managers can make the mistake of hiring a company to develop a product without setting up adequate in-house processes to oversee the project. Since technology delivery often involves multiple management approaches, outsourcing such services can add additional layers onto an already complex project.

 

IT managers overseeing outsourced projects are also challenged to balance tight deadlines with project scope, cost and accountability. This becomes especially difficult when the project involves orchestrating the efforts and schedules of a culturally and geographically diverse team of individuals. Such projects often require communication and relationship management in addition to regular project management.

 

Adaptyze understands the challenges inherent in outsourcing management. We will work with your organization to clearly define your project's scope and goals, find a vendor, and develop processes and procedures to ensure your vendor meets or exceeds your expectations. We can perform various services including:

 

• Assisting in defining a project management framework that defines governance, management, technical and communication issues up front. This includes defining roles and responsibilities.

• Setting up project management oversight processes, including benchmarking, to ensure projects remain on track.

• Assisting with issues involving communication and relationship management between your people and the vendors. Outsourced projects often involve the use of virtual teams, which can make communication challenging. We can combine our expertise in outsourcing and virtual team management to help you leverage the best of what your organization and its vendors can offer.
