  • 1.  Centralized Resource Management?

    Posted Jul 25, 2014 06:11 AM

    Hi all,

    I am working with a client and am trying to persuade them to use centralized resourcing.

    I have a few examples of previous clients working this way, but I am hoping to get a few more company names so they see that this is a process that works with Fortune 500s.

    Right now they have it spread so thin that no one is properly trained, no one is properly managed and the data is atrocious.

    I think they just need a little reassurance that I am not leading them to the bleeding edge of management principles.  lol

    Many thanks!

    Well back before HP bought EDS (Electronic Data Systems) they used a central resourcing system (PSA) call Evolve which they used to manage over 100,000 resources centrally.

    At the time EDS was a 21 billion dollar company and a fortune 500 (15 billion in service delivery/outsourcing).

    The service delivery industry would by your best bet for examples.
