Abington Memorial Hospital (AMH) in Abington, PA recently announced the launch of their new Web site (www.abingtonhealth.org). As the Project Manager for the Internet project, I’m pleased with the result and proud that we met our goal and delivered the site in 4.5 months! It was a truly a team effort that could not have been completed without the focus of our development and design staff and the determination of the folks at AMH, Josh Snow and Tom Whitcraft. I don’t think I’ve worked with anyone that could get a response so quickly when they were part of such a large organization. The site looks great, has many new robust features, and lays the groundwork for incorporating even greater functionality in the future.
AMH distributed a special edition of their employee eNewsletter, “Abington Trends,” focused solely on the new Web site. I thought the picture of their ‘team’ was great so I included it here. In addition, they plan to do an online scavenger hunt to increase awareness of the site and add some interactivity, all fun things that help the AMH family create a little buzz about their newest creation!
4.5 months! This can easily be a 1 (if not 2) year project.
The site looks very impressive. Are there any Project Management lessons you would like to share? How did you manage to finish the project that fast?
