Every project has it's own set of objects; different deliverables, schedules, and deadlines. Often, there are many unknowns in regards to all of these items upon starting a project. An important aspect of doing great work is hitting deadlines consistently, and with quality solutions. To do this, we manage our time by focusing on priorities, and consistently review the status of all our projects.
At any giving time we will have multiple projects on the table. Some projects in the heat of development, a few on hold, and others that may be less of a priority or have longer deadlines. Before kicking-off each of these projects, we define a schedule based on the tentative layout of project deliverables. Regardless of whether these dates are set-in-stone or just rough estimates, we will always create this schedule and see how it fits with our current work load.
Evaluating the best way to allocate our time with a current project list is something we do as a team, and ensures that we all know what's going on at any given point. Sometimes deadlines shift forward suddenly, and priorities change. We are used to this, and handle sudden changes of deadlines quite a bit. Although it doesn't happen much, working late nights or even through the night is something we'll do to make sure we finish on time. Whatever it takes to meet a deadline, we strive to make sure clients are happy and satisfied.
