Project Management Services

A Critical Component to Metro’s Success

Metro Sign and Awning provides project management solutions that mitigate risk and lead to successful project completion.

Project management entails much more than tracking deadlines, setting budgets, and establishing key performance indicators (KPI) and other metrics. A sharp project manager takes control of the project from its beginning to the end, strategically aligning initiatives and goals and gaining stakeholder support. Good project managers identify and manage risks, resources, and budgets. They also facilitate clear communication across multiple teams and stakeholders to keep everyone on the same page.

Good project management:

• Provides the glue that holds a project together
• Ensures on-time and on-budget delivery
• Guarantees the achievement of all quality goals and objectives

What is Project Management?

It’s defined by the Project Management Institute (PMI) as the “application of knowledge, skills, tools, and techniques to project activities to meet the project requirements.” The project management lifecycle encompasses initiation, planning, execution, and closure. 

Metro utilizes best-in-class project management principles, which include:

• Realistic project planning
• A clearly defined focus and objectives
• Strategic alignment among all stakeholders
• Proactively managed processes, with milestones, deadlines, and assigned tasks
• Quality control
• A commitment to reduce costs by improving efficiency, mitigating risks, and optimizing resources
