Regardless of the type of project, project management is an essential component of project success.
MCS Project Managers assist clients in any situation where an experienced, flexible and senior person is
needed to help meet short-term or medium-term requirements. An MCS Project Manager will either
manage a team of MCS staff to ensure that the client’s project is completed successfully; or will work with
the client team and run the project as though they were a member of your company.
Where the MCS Project Manager directs a team of MCS staff, they will act as the main point of contact
between the client and the MCS team. The Project Manager will ensure that the client’s business
requirements are met and that the project runs smoothly and is delivered successfully.
A good example of how the MCS Project Manager works directly for the client is in the installation of a new
system. The Project Manager will manage a mixed team of employees, (comprising the client’s IT and
business staff), and will also co-ordinate the activities of the vendor's staff, and any other third parties
involved.
Other examples include:
• Supply of IT Managed Services
• Logistics Management
• Review of internal processes and recommendations for improvement
• Discrete projects
Over the last 5 years, MCS PMs have had hands on in-depth experience of projects covering a whole range
of activities. Typical examples of projects that we have managed successfully include:
• Systems Development
• Outsourcing and Facilities Management
• Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity Planning
• Software Rollouts
