Summary
This case study outlines Mavendog's involvement in leading a project to relocate a professional services firm's headquarters while modernizing its IT infrastructure. The firm, after 35 years in its previous location, recognized the need to update its technology during the move but lacked project managers on staff. Mavendog provided fractional leadership support, assigning Managing Consultants Tracey Clark and Clint Woods to oversee the project phases. Their roles included managing vendor accountability and ensuring operational focus, which allowed the firm's internal IT team to concentrate on ongoing operations. The project involved addressing challenges such as vendor management, risk mitigation, and maintaining seamless connectivity for over 200 employees during the transition. Mavendog's flexible approach enabled the client to achieve a successful move without downtime, demonstrating the effectiveness of engaging specialized project execution consultants. The results highlighted the importance of having experienced leadership to navigate complex IT updates without increasing headcount.
