Introducing the Skynamo Project Office.

Skynamo has grown significantly in recent years and most of the company orientates their thinking and activity outward, to meet our customers’ needs.

However, this puts pressure on internal processes, structures, and technologies which must evolve to keep up with the growing demand. Rather than asking customer-centric teams to do this, Skynamo has created a Project Office to dedicate itself to improving and strengthening our internal tools and processes.

The Project Office pays attention to significant internal challenges such as internal data integration, data management, and information sharing. Additional functions include comprehensive data analytics, data models, and reporting using tools such as Sales Force, Power BI and of course, Excel. We work closely with other departments within the business such as Finance, Sales, IT and R&D if needed. The Project Office forms part of Skynamo’s Operations structure and reports to the COO.
