In enterprises and businesses, it is common to have more than one tech team working in sequence to make big things happen.
In one sense, if we are talking about an electric car company, you’ll find a team of engineers working on the sensors, a team working on the self driving mechanisms and a team working on the road modulation.
Road modulation won’t work without sensors, sensors will not be efficient if there are no self driving mechanisms in hand, and the latter wouldn’t work without integrating the road modulations.
Each one of those teams is led by a tech project manager and each team follows a tight deadline as the other teams rely on each other to make it work.
In a situation such as this, tech project managers in big businesses (or startups) are usually under a lot of pressure, trust us, we at PieceX have a pretty good understanding of that.
Which is why our team at PieceX is happy to give us some important tips on how to make your team more efficient as a tech project manager.
Provide Your Team With The Necessary Tools
One of the major problems a tech project manager faces is that their team is constantly in need of different tools for the project. It is quite common that a segment of the team or a group working a specific task would ask for a specific tool.
A tech project manager would find themself constantly going through hoops with the company’s different departments to provide their team with the necessary tools to efficiently finalize their development or testing in the most efficient way.
In that case, it is essential for a tech project manager to provide their team with the necessary tools from the get-go.
If the project is dynamic and diverse, making something like this difficult as the team isn’t 100% sure what to expect, a tech project manager could provide the team with the ability to acquire the tools they need.
In cases where the team is focused on software development, PieceX has made it possible to provide enterprises with prepaid solutions, allowing tech teams to be completely in control of their source code and software component acquisition strategy.
This prepaid solution is called the PieceX Wallet and is easily accessible through here! This would make it much easier for tech project managers to provide their team with the power to acquire the tools they need.
Create a Worry-Free Environment
A team is as efficient as their ability to express themselves in their work. A good tech project manager creates an environment by which a team would be able to completely take lead in their own tasks and run new ideas that they see to be efficient.
At PieceX, for example, we have a very open-door policy when it comes to ideas! Everyone on the team is always encouraged to give new ideas and take lead in their own tasks in the way they see most efficient.
At the end of the day, an individual’s success is a tech project manager’s success and is inevitably also the company’s success.
As long as the tech project manager oversees everything and makes sure everything is going in the right track (as is the case at PieceX), it is very efficient to build a trust-centric worry-free environment for the team.
Measure Your Success
As a tech project manager working out the ins and outs of your project, it is very important to keep track of your project’s success.
In other words, you should be able to quantify the current status of your project in terms of your project’s task delivery, stakeholder’s expectations, or company testing.
If you are not aware of how to determine the level of your success, it will not be possible to ascertain whether or not your project is headed towards the expected goal.
For example, if your project is mainly focused on the sale of software that you develop, your metrics for success will be heavily reliant on the quality of the software your team developed, the solutions it actually provides for the industry it is meant for, and finally the number of sales it will be able to drive.
If you are selling your software on PieceX, you can very effectively measure the quality of your project through our very intricate QA inspection, which you could receive feedback for afterwards if your project doesn’t meet the requirements for the category/industry.
You can also measure the amount of sales you have made through the PieceX dashboard and start working out how you can improve your upcoming listings.
Conclusion
Being a tech project manager is not an easy vocation, but it is one of the most rewarding when you finally pave the way for your team to work as perfectly as a well-oiled machine, creating an environment where efficiency beats all.
