What’s at stake

The implementation of GIS is no exception to the evolution of IT projects: more technicality and agility. In a rapidly evolving field, project management must bring technological innovation to the project owner. It must adapt to shorter cycles and contribute to the alignment of the GIS with the evolution of the users’ jobs.

In this context, the mission of the Assistant Project Manager secures GIS projects. Arx iT makes the most of its skills in project management assistance and GIS project implementation to ensure assistance missions for project management. This double skill allows to take into account the needs and stakes of the project owner, and to understand the technical issues of the project owner.
