Remove the Risk from Project and Programme Management
Making an investment in the right technology is only one of the critical components of a successful project. All too often, ensuring that the technology is implemented efficiently and on-time represents the major hurdle that causes you the greatest headache.
With the fragile economy it’s now more important than ever that the highest standards are applied to project and programme management in your organisation. That’s why it makes business sense to engage with Dimension Data. Find out how we can help.
Take the Pain out of Deploying International Projects
Did you know that international deployments impose two to three times the management load of national ones? Why? Because they introduce a new level of complexity and risk. The challenges are many and include logistical, cultural, commercial, communication and governance issues. You – like many organisations – may feel less than ideally-equipped to deal with these unforeseen yet predictable challenges and be thin on the ground in terms of resources to manage them.
Dimension Data’s International Programme Office (IPO) is a knowledge centre that operates an international team to address these challenges, mitigate risk and deliver projects to a consistently high standard across the globe. The mantra of the IPO is simple: Seamlessly integrate international projects from pre-sales to implementation, all the while focusing on client satisfaction.
Today, our IPO operates across 47 countries and draws on our long-standing technology partnerships with over 100 Preferred Partners. Can you run the risk of your international projects going south? If not, contact us to find out more about how Dimension Data’s IPO can assist.
