Transformation Project
Embarking on a journey through POS refresh, VM server setups, and infrastructure projects, our saga of accomplishments revolves around real-world solutions. A standout feat? Migrating Light speed POS to the Azure Microsoft Cloud, a move that reshaped our project landscape. Our approach was grounded in practicality, steering clear of unnecessary complexity. We began by handpicking POS vendors and crafting a straightforward governance structure for smooth project sailing. The grand plan involved refreshing 140 sites across Canada, managing costs with a simple breakdown. Guided by the principles of the Systems Development Life Cycle (SDLC), our status reports kept things on track without delving into unnecessary technical jargon. Steering Committee meetings were focused, installations went according to plan, and progress updates flowed seamlessly to stakeholders.
Beyond projects, we built relationships, smoothing things between suppliers and clients. Enter Microsoft Project, our trusty toolkit, used not for sophisticated strategies but for optimizing resources, breaking down work, and keeping budgets in check. Our financial routine included monthly vendor invoice checks for accuracy and adherence to payment terms. Monthly statement of work reviews were just another part of our commitment to straightforward project management. In a nutshell, our approach was about practical solutions, transparent communication, and keeping things straightforward in the realm of project mastery.
