Management

 

Benefit from Gallery Systems' years of museum experience by asking us to gather and document your functional and organisational requirements.  This will ensure your project gets off to the best possible start, with clear direction and momentum.

 

Our staff is best placed to assess an organisations' requirements within the context of collection management and particularly Gallery Systems' products, identifying specific configuration points and utilizing knowledge learned from similar projects.

 

 

Professional project management is key to the success of any project.  At Gallery Systems, we have a team of Project Managers skilled in delivering projects on time, on budget and to specification, whilst also having years of museum experience.  Your Project Manager will spend time building the right team to deliver your project, as well as preparing a schedule of work with tasks, key milestones and dependencies.  A suitable communication schedule will also be agreed upon, with regular status reports made available to everyone involved.  

Gallery Systems' Project Managers can be hired to manage any project you may have, it does not need to be related to our products.  Please contact us to discuss an upcoming project or one that is in progress and may need some help.

Policies and procedures are vital to the success of a collection management system and the museum as an organization.  The correct blend of policies and procedures ensures the smooth running and operational efficiency and effectiveness of any system, but that blend can be very difficult to achieve.  

Discussions and workshops to define your policies and procedures can become surprisingly fractious and emotive and it is often helpful to have a third-party facilitate this process.  Gallery Systems has performed this role for countless museums so do contact us if we can help. 

 

Any change can be disruptive to an organization but a software advancements always prove to be particularly emotive and challenging.  With over 25 years experience managing software-related changes in museums, we've learned techniques that minimize disruption and anxiety, meaning that projects can be delivered on time, with happy users and benefits realized sooner.
