Program Management

Leveraging the Power of Effective Program Management

Often, the implementation of a Supply Chain Execution (SCE) system is called a “project.” In reality, it should be considered a program and managed accordingly. This is because an implementation requires a set of tools and skills that go far beyond project management.

An SCE system implementation requires the efforts of many different subordinate project teams, each with their own requirements, deliverables, and budgets. These groups often include systems development, integration, EDI, testing (multiple levels), IT infrastructure, physical infrastructure, training, documentation, and support teams.

4SIGHT’s experienced program managers use a proven, proprietary toolset and methodology to manage complicated programs and ensure you are meeting the maximum strategic value for your company.
