Problems Businesses Are Solving With Project Managers

 A project manager is someone who takes the business goal (“I want - fill in this blank by something that your company needs”) and is responsible for ensuring it happens. If the “the boss” were to do this, assuming they had the skillset to do so, then they would be taking away time from doing their job of being the boss, hence they get a project manager to do it for them.

Some examples are technology deployment projects. Rolling out new telephony, workstations, and useful applications. Efficiency projects like new ways to speed production. 

Product projects like bringing a new product to market. Customer satisfaction projects to help retain your customer base. Also human resource related projects. For example, surveys or absorption of a workforce via a merger.

The range of potential project management activities you could be involved with are vast. You could work in design – producing drawings and working with manufacturers, suppliers and subcontractors right through to manufacture, installation and decommissioning. Or you could work on analysis and problem solving for existing equipment or systems. Expect plenty of onsite work, implementing designs, finding solutions to installation issues, liaising with designers and office based engineers and coordinating staff or contractors. And project management – liaising with customers and suppliers, planning for successful project implementation and ensuring projects run to budget and program.

A company where people really want to work has one of the most powerful competitive advantages in their market. Having the right project management can lead the companies’ overall corporate style.

Project managers should work with business leaders to spot real problems to tackle, by identifying the data-driven business decisions that could provide the biggest impact or the quickest payback. That could include focusing on a day-to-day operational matter, or a big strategic decision such as whether to enter a new geography. In this case, a business will need to build a team that includes the business skills to choose the right priorities, the IT skills to access the data and identify the required infrastructure, and also the data science and quantitative skills to take the right analytic approach to the data.
