Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

From my experience with Grinteq's resources, they were always very responsive and able to articulate the progress being made or what issues were that really helped our team to be able to understand where things were and how progress needed to be made. Also, while I cannot qualify the quality of the work they did from a technical standpoint I can say that he was always very efficient with his work and seemed like he was able to turn things around quickly without sacrificing quality.

I do think that there were some issues with the solution on the B2B Commerce side but as I understand it, that was more so due to a lack of an articulation of requirements properly from vendors and that once we had new leadership, was able to provide guidance for the resource that helped get things sorted. Not sure if this helps.
