Project: A medium sized company retained Logos to oversee the implementation of a major new technology project. This was a multi year effort that required a significant effort on the part of the entire company management. Logos developed communications tracks, secured the agreement of the process owners and worked with the Human Resources department to develop conversion force, training and transition teams. An in-house project team was selected and trained prior to the end of the Logos contract. A project tracking methodology was established. The Logos Delta Group was then retained to provide periodic review on project progress. The project was successful. Company management gave the Logos Group much credit for the early establishment of a highly effective project management structure and for helping to ensure the total involvement of key personnel.
