VISTA approaches each assignment responsibly with
focused attention
on the schedule and the quality of deliverables. We
bring more than the
right resources to the table. We bring our years of experience which
means that we prepare for the
unexpected, anticipate inevitable
change,
keep management informed of issues where their decisions are needed,
and
build team commitments to keep things on track.

Process Analysis
The day-to-day management of any organization today requires a deft
balance
of process, people and technology. Most of our client's
requirements in
these three areas are dictated by the specific industry
best practices.
VISTA has taken advantage of the cumulative experience
of its senior team
members to create a comprehensive "Process Review"
report that
logically analyzes a business environment and identifies:
 | Process efficiency and streamlining opportunities |
| Gaps in control with recommended corrective solutions |
| Repetitive and high volume tasks which are candidates for
automation |
The VISTA "Process Review" creates a benchmark from the project
and/or
organizational goals against which all processes may be
measured. The resulting
report provides a road map that inventories the
business and aids
in the development of tactical and strategic solutions.

Project Management
Project Management involves the strategic coordination of tasks and
resources
to achieve the desired objectives. VISTA believes the application
of
traditional project management methods alone (SDLC, Gantt charts,
milestones,
tracking dependencies, etc.) is insufficient to ensure an effective
outcome. Our experience as both project and line managers also provides us
an opportunity to:
| Assess possible alternative approaches |
| Avoid common stumbling blocks |
| Anticipate the downstream impact of a given action |
Throughout the project VISTA resources provide information that is useful,
but not
overwhelming, in order to:
| Describe and summarize the critical and pertinent issues |
| Offer a range of solutions, when and if possible |
| Support changing requirements, as needed |
| Manage the project to a sensible time-frame |

Documentation |
Drawing on our line experience, VISTA provides process documentation work
with an
eye toward what the line manager needs to be aware of, in addition to a
clear, well-organized presentation of the process itself.
Experience allows VISTA to discern the depth and extent of an issue and limit
the solution to that which is sufficient to resolve it. Often a full
project is
unnecessary, resulting in a significant savings in time and
resources.

Professional Services
An alternative approach in the use of consulting services is the temporary
replacement
of line personnel by experienced consulting practitioners. This can
be cost-effective in
those instances where the line personnel are the
most
effective resources to undertake a project. VISTA's experienced practitioners:
| Enable you to reallocate your line resources to a project |
| Fulfill the temporary needs of an organization in transition |
VISTA resources transition in to your organization without risking any loss
of
control in your daily process environment. We supply the type of
resource that
we would hire to perform that line function on a full-time basis.
