When Banit sought a robust solution for their card payment verification process, they turned to LinkSoft. Jan Hron, who was then working at LinkSoft as a project manager, implemented the necessary steps and meticulously steered the project to its completion.
"Upon my arrival at Banit, I observed a noticeable gap in task leadership and management. My dedication to the role made a significant difference. Our primary objective was to instill a coherent approach to the project. This involved defining its essence, establishing deliverables, charting out a plan, and onboarding individuals pivotal for the execution of every stage. Our relentless commitment and the rhythm set by our regular steering and status meetings ensured we met our goals head-on."
Jan Hron, Business Director, LinkSoft
The initial requirements for the new core, encompassing several thousand man-days, were succinctly captured in a detailed document. The cornerstone was the project charter, an instrumental document outlining the project's primary objectives, scope, anticipated timeline, inherent risks, and involved stakeholders.
This plan was the project's backbone, detailing activities, their interdependencies, and monitoring the project's trajectory. Its inception ensured absolute clarity among team members regarding their roles and responsibilities. An accompanying schedule mapped out activities and deadlines. However, it's worth noting that such documents undergo periodic refinements to stay relevant.
Recognizing and defining pivotal roles in project management is instrumental. It not only delineates responsibilities but also ensures that skilled personnel occupy these roles. When these roles are rightly defined and occupied, it equips the team with the tools needed for success.
Periodic status meetings are crucial checkpoints, reflecting on the project's progress and emerging challenges. Meanwhile, the steering meetings, acting as the project's directive committee, keep vital stakeholders in the loop about the ongoing project dynamics. It's a given – no project adheres strictly to its blueprint. Hence, consistent communication becomes the linchpin.
Every accomplished project manager knows the essence of seamless communication. It's about establishing a two-way information channel, ensuring all stakeholders remain well-informed. A defined cadence, perhaps via regular status and steering meetings, is indispensable to the project's success.
