Customer Quotes
MDS senior management decided that EssUP is the way for better quality, higher productivity and lower cost. This approach has helped the project team provide instant visibility about the project, but also helps the project team to decide what could be the best corrective actions. In practice, this has been proven to be highly valuable for both the project team and senior management.
Practices are a kind of competence that will be vital for MDS to serve its international clients on sourcing development.

"I would like to share some of the tips and tricks that I have experience implementing EssUP with our customers”
1. Every team and project has a different way of working
2. There is no single practice suitable for every team or project
3. Apply only the practices needed - nothing more - nothing less.
4. Introduce practices one at a time - starting with the one with most benefits.
5. Adapt your way of working through simple adjustments to the practices
