Vision of project management, development and implementation

Hetnet Project Managers ensure that complex solutions are completed on time and within IT budgets. The Project Manager is responsible for the creation of the project plan, which serves as the blueprint. It is this blueprint that spells out the network design, access design, security definition, reliability requirements, and support requirements. It's the basis for developing the task-oriented Project Statement of Work, which outlines who does what and when. Project Managers who handle every task of the project interface directly with the customer.

The tasks include:

• Writing the Statement of Work, vendor contracts, and letters of agency
• Scheduling what will happen when and who will do it
• Documenting completion and acceptance of the project phases
• Generally ensuring your satisfaction as the project moves toward completion

Project Management deploys all required resources per Statement of Work, utilizing skills selected from a matrix of Hetnet staff capabilities and working with designated customer personnel to get the job done.

Company reliability and stability

Numerous customer references, good financial record and decade of IBM partnership prove Hetnet's reliability and stability.
