All integration projects have the same key objective:
to complete the defined scope on time and on budget.

It sounds straightforward, but how many times have you heard “Sure it can be done, with additional money and time.”

At Hartness International Integration, it is the project manager’s job to ensure your specific goals are achieved. Our seasoned project managers run the day to day activities of your project and act as the single point of contact for questions and information. Starting at inception and continuing through equipment turnover, they are responsible for running the project so that the project doesn’t over run you.

To ensure the project gets off to a good start, your project manager will hold a kickoff meeting and define the project scope and overall

expectations. By identifying these objectives early in the process, he minimizes the risk of misunderstandings later on.

With scope and expectations clearly established, a master project schedule is developed and maintained. All engineering, procurement, installation and checkout activities are detailed, including those activities being executed by the customer or other outside party. Providing this level of detail to the master schedule allows the project manager to plan and coordinate all integration activities in and around the plant’s production needs.

Depending on customer requirements, the Hartness Integration project manager will determine the frequency by which to schedule communications. Some customers want updates every week. Others prefer to limit contact to critical changes and concerns. Whichever approach best fits your needs, you can be sure your project will be managed with professionalism and candor and that you will always be promptly notified of important issues and events.

On a monthly basis the project manager will issue a status report summarizing technical, financial, and scheduling updates as well as any open items that are owed to each party. By providing this synopsis on a regular basis, the Hartness project manager ensures that critical information is dispersed and that minor concerns get mitigated before turning into major problems.

While all integration projects have the same underlying goals, the Hartness Integration team adds one more of its own: complete customer satisfaction.

We will go “above and beyond” to deliver a solution that fulfills your expectations and benefits your bottom line.
