Professional
Experience – Managing Global
Project______________________________________________
Let me start by defining Global Deliveries from my own
positioning and learning:-
“Breakdown of work components into more manageable
chunks and assigning it to strategically located workforce
from where you know what to get the best in terms of adaptability,
scalability and delivery.”
From my own experience, I find the Global Delivery Model
turning out to be the most sought out business model these
days with every corporate in the city collaborating to
make best use of the limitless expertise spread and scattered
across the geography thus shrinking the globe. India for
instance, is sought as an ideal vantage point closely
followed by the Chinese who are fast catching up in the
areas of software development and back office business
processes.
My endeavor in Managing Global Deliveries was largely
focused towards helping the organizations meet the promised
process of delivering high-quality global IT solutions
with minimal risk at the most competitive price by employing
a judicious mix of resources in offering the best value
for the engagement.
Cutting out the Business rhetoric, let’s shift our
focus on the challenges faced in Global Delivery and how
successfully the odds are overcome. When in war, injuries
are inevitable and if you can come out alive, you can
be lucky. Business is no different, but the line that
differentiates is not luck but consistency (in delivery).
Resource Management always proves to be the major break
through. It is harnessing the right person for the right
task – and there lies the challenge in spotting
talent and grooming further. In a place where there is
a rich resource-pool, we identify the prospect with our
best practices in place ably complimented by our state-of-the
art infrastructure with proven process to train and deploy
in the project to DELIVER.
Project management is another arena that probes the preparations,
pushing us beyond the possible. Through proper project
tracking, status reporting and transparent corporate communication,
the progress was monitored to avoid overlapping or run-in,
thus sticking to the timeline to deliver on target.
To sum up, the bottom line continues to be the deliverables!
