4 people from OTS worked with us. Resource manager, project manager, development and Architecture.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

While the project went longer than planned that was because we had to extend the requirements and deliverables. OTS stepped up and worked very hard to make all the necessary changes.

The PM's report progress and status in a timely fashion. The PM also follows thru with requests for status and helps me feel comfort in the progress.

The architect's knowledge has been very impressive and wide ranging. In addition, the management performed periodic check-ins with us and resolved problems in a timely fashion.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

The one area of the project that needed improvement was in the project management area. However, OTS realized this, performed an internal review and assigned another PM to the project. The new PM has been so much better. Communication has improved dramatically.
