Why we are different

Our service mission is to provide technical and support solutions to address the specific requirements and goals of our clients. Our services span the entire lifecycle of an IT and/or Telecommunications project: planning, requirements analysis, design, procurement, installation, training, and maintenance.

We provide professional management and technical guidance, hands-on expertise, and a systematic approach to managing and supporting projects and assignments. We apply state-of-the-art technology to help our clients achieve their program and project goals. Our management and technical talent give us the flexibility to respond to the needs of small as well as large diverse clients. Our commitment to excellence is steadfast to ensure that we meet and/ or exceed our clients' expectations.

In addition to assessing the technical needs of a client and determining the resources necessary to meet those needs, Synergistic’s Project Managers are adept at locating the sources of supply required to meet the material needs of a client. Ever present is the goal of providing customers with the best value for their contract dollars. Not only will the Project Managers negotiate the best pricing possible from vendors, they will also direct and control the purchasing process from preparation of purchase orders to determining the most expeditious and cost-effective way of delivering products to the client.

In many respects, the Project Manager becomes an extension of the client's staff. Because our goal is client satisfaction, the interests of the client are the interests of the Project Manager. They are available to assist the client in planning as well as implementation. The Project Manager can provide the client with data necessary in the decision-making process and can be an invaluable tool in alternatives assessments (i.e., "WHAT IF" scenarios).
