The Challenge:
The Armed Forces Health Longitudinal Technology (AHLTA) application, a
medical records software package, was developed and would need to be
deployed at all domestic and international DoD hospitals and clinics
over a two-year period. The AHLTA application provides electronic
access to military health records from anywhere in the world, including
the battlefield. The developed solution would need to include an
initial site surveys for each site in addition to an ensuing software
deployment, testing and training of personnel. The solution would need
a substantial number of skilled Information Technology resources to
begin simultaneously in order to complete the project within the
planned two-year timeframe. The customer needed a partner company with
the means to recruit, coordinate, and globally deploy a large number of
dependable resources in a short amount of time. The partner company
also had to provide internal project management support for the
Technicians and Trainers.
The Response:
As a national provider of technology staffing and project centric
services, QualTech was able to provide the expertise and quality needed
to support the customer. QualTech quickly on-boarded the technicians
and technical leads needed to meet the demands of the project.
Technician skill levels ranged from desktop technicians with strong
Microsoft and networking backgrounds to network engineers. The network
engineers served as implementation specialists and customer contact
points at each site. QualTech provided project management logistics
support in terms of scheduling, travel, and expense processing for each
site.
The Result:
QualTech helped the client meet contractual obligations for the
software implementation by promptly providing qualified personnel. The
addition of a small Project Management Office (PMO) in QualTech’s
Reston office ensured that the needs of QualTech staff were met as they
traveled worldwide. This PMO also tracked the travel costs and expenses
of the technicians and senior trainers, leaving the client time to
focus on other aspects of this important initiative. QualTech’s
proactive and continuous recruiting efforts for this project ensured
that resources would be quickly replaced if needed. The project was
delivered on time and within budget.
