Team & Project Management

What is management? Some see management as something you do to people. A manager provides management to their subordinates. However, efficient management occurs when a leader coordinates the task and events of a project with the team in order to make the project a success. This is the outlook Surround has taken in our development of the Team and Project Management application.

Personnel Management or Project Management?

Although personnel and projects are two entirely different entities, we have combined their management in regards to projects. Because personnel are interdependent with a project, it is only natural to manage personnel and their tasks for each project together. A well versed management professional knows that if personnel are not effectively coordinated, the project will suffer – regardless of intent. If the project suffers, the personnel suffer - regardless of capabilities. This paradox can be avoided simply by using our Team and Project Management software to make your projects into your successes.

Now vs. The Future

The current tools available for project management assume that each project has one set team and that each team member completes one task before moving to the next one. Reality has shown us that this is never the case. Capable team members multitask and finish tasks for a project at different times. The makeup of teams assigned to these projects often changes throughout the project’s timeline. With multiple members, priorities, and deadlines – Surround understands this concept. We have brought the future of Project Management Tools to you by concentrating on the coordination and communication of multiple projects, priorities, and deadlines for all parties involved.

Defining "Proper Management"

Proper Management occurs when a project is completed on time and within budget through the application of knowledge, skills, tools and techniques of the team involved. Let Surround help you achieve proper management.
