Project Management

Premier's mission is to provide cost effective IT solutions through a talented and motivated workforce. With this motive Premier has adopted the model of Project Management, successfully executing projects over the last few years. Our model is essentially an evolving set of processes and tools that emphasize on addressing risks associated with delivery models and achieving client satisfaction through prevention of problems.

Our model consists of procedures, checklists and forms built around a series of activities, carried out in phases and each phase concludes with a checkpoint review to proceed to the next phase. We cover lifecycle methodologies such as Waterfall, Spiral, Incremental, RAD, JAD etc. and provide guidance on the applicability of a model for a particular project based on the best practices ensuring extensive usage of tools and techniques during an entire project lifecycle. We are flexible in its approach to business keeping clients' business priorities in mind. Our projects are usually executed on a Fixed Price basis (FP) or Time and Materials (T&M) basis or a combination of both.

Premier can suggest the best suitable model depending on customer requirements and in cases where customers are new to outsourcing, a PILOT project may be suggested to help understand and familiarize with Premier's Delivery model. Premier's Project Management provides a consistent set of steps for the Startup, Planning, Execution, and Completion of any project. Our Project Management methodology is designed to easily embrace any life cycle, so work is consistently performed the way you want. Our Project Management and System Life Cycles add consistency, control, and quality to any project. Our Project Management supports the use of any systems life cycle. We adopted this methodology / approach so that organizations can Lower the cost of owning technology, Create a scalable & reliable technology foundation, Speed up development process, Manage project risks and Improve core IT competencies. Our Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC) models define an easily understood, readily applied, systematic approach to software development. Whether we opt for our traditional approach or your model, we take into consideration the project dynamics as well as the nature of your business model. The phases that evolve over a lifecycle are: Scoping, Definition/Assessment, Design, Development & Testing, Deployment, Support and Maintenance.
