PROJECT MANAGER
 
Project Management is the art of managing all aspects of a project from project inception to project closure using a processed and structured methodology.  The project management team is defined as a department that centralizes and fully owns the management of projects. Successful project management requires that Project Managers develop a strong working relationship with the client and key internal customers and organize and direct effective project teams for each study. Project managers work closely with survey programmers (SP), data processers (DP), Client Delivery Consultants (CDC’s) and clients throughout the project lifecycle (pre-planning, production, quality checking, fielding and deliverable stages).  Upon doing so, the project manager’s role is to ensure that all objectives are understood by the team and are responsible for taking the lead in driving the project support team towards the common goal of: efficient production, seamless support, processes adherence and flawless delivery of data files within the agreed amount of time.
