Depending upon the client initiative, implementations can be both big (10+ people in the project team) or small (part-time project team). At any point, they are running between 20 and 25 of these projects.
For their clients, success is quicker, more reliable, less costly implementations; easier business change, and happy users; together with quicker realisation of business benefits. For my client success looks much the same with the addition of ensuring the professional services function delivers consistent profitability to the overall business.

Working within the Service Delivery customer engagement process and driving continuous improvement
