Project Management

Your Single Contact for All Data Center Project Management Requirements

The size and complexity of data centers have increased dramatically over the past decade because of new technologies, the explosion of data, and heightened security concerns. However, as today’s data centers grow in size and complexity, so do the challenges of project management. A successful data center project management solution should: 1) Coordinate relationships among IT, facilities and the business, 2) Improve project success rates, and 3) Decrease risk, schedule delays and budget overruns.

With today’s resource limitations, IT professionals often lack the resources to fully manage complex projects involving multiple vendors, departments and disciplines. A program/change management solution is needed to provide an effective, consistent management solution for all project issues and areas.

Flexible Yet Standardized Solutions

When Business Continuity Resources (BCR) takes responsibility for part or all of your data center projects, a full-time and dedicated Project Manager (PM) and team if need be, is put into operation. At the outset of each project, the PM assembles a multi-disciplined team of partners and advisors to collaborate on every aspect of project management, from initial requirements to post-implementation audits. The BCR Project Manager will provide you with a single, constant, anchored point of contact for all issues and areas, including work by subcontractors. BCR provides a variety of Project Management solutions to manage data center projects, regardless of size or complexity. We can augment in-house management staff and even help you set up your own Project Management Team. In addition, the approach is based on Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) and provides organizations the structure they need to both standardize project management practices and facilitate the marriage among IT, facilities, and the business.

Our Project Management approach has been repeatedly proven to improve project success rates, decrease risk, reduce schedule delays and limit budget overruns. In addition, BCR continuously iterates best practices, methodologies, and technologies at hundreds of customers to constantly improve our PMO offerings. With the establishment of a Project Management Approach, IT professionals can concentrate on what they do best — relationship management, maintenance, and long-term resource issues — while the Project Manager oversees the cross-functional activities taking place among various vendors and departments.
