Without the effective use of project management techniques, a project can be negatively impacted as deadlines slip, scope encroachment occurs, cost overruns waste precious resources and overall value delivered to the customer is diminished. In short, a solid project management strategy is one of the key factors that, time and again, distinguishes USi as a reliable, consistent partner to work with among all of our customers.
