Banking Project Management

This was quite a large one. We were in charge of 7+ Mio CHF over 2.5 years. This means 3 releases of a critical Bank application. Up to 13 persons under our direct responsibility. Accountable for scope, budget, relation with stakeholders and suppliers. To be honest, we were quite happy to take a break at the end of the project. Oh, did I mention we finished on time, within budget, all three releases ?
