Merge Agency

Interim Project Management Support

The agency experienced a growth spurt in early 2007, and needed interim project management support until it could hire additional permanent employees.

Merge engaged Silver Link to manage communication, budget and scheduling for a research project. Specific tasks completed included:

• Coordinating the efforts of creative employees and research contractors
• Providing weekly status reports to Merge’s client and to Merge managers
• Tracking activity against established milestones and deadlines
• Managing billable hours to ensure that the project remained within budget, and communicating any potential cost overrun situations
• Compiling research data, writing and editing a significant portion of the 100-page final report
