I make good use of IT consultants, IT staff augmentation and technical partners. Experts are the most cost-effective and skilled people to do the work.

(E) Experience – Great skills and knowledge, with numerous frameworks, languages, domains and tools.
(PSF) Product/Service Focus – Well-tested business processes, systems and models. A track record of achieving schedules and budgets.
