Advent’s philosophy is to be an active team member; therein fostering an open
and collaborative approach as fundamental to the overall success of the
project.
Delivery of project services will require a high level of client engagement and
the application of sound project management skills. Advent’s core skill is the
ability to cultivate strong inter-team partnerships while motivating high
technical capability and capacity. This integration of teamwork and technical
skills will ensure a successful delivery of the project.
We facilitate communications externally and internally though meetings,
workshops and email correspondence. Open lines of communication help us
develop and deliver high quality deliverables by being pre-emptive in
determining project constraints during the early stages of design. We
