Project Calls is making it easier to find consulting, contracting and service projects in the Caribbean.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n


\nAs organisations today continue to streamline their operations in order to manage costs and improve efficiency, increasingly they are divesting themselves of non-essential functions and material until they are absolutely needed. Thanks to such practices, the Caribbean now has a multitude of independent contractors, consultants and service providers, who are ready, willing and able to provide the required goods and services <\/span><\/p>\n

However, similar to most other areas in Caribbean business, a major stumbling block exists: the absence of information. Frequently, those looking for short-term projects are not aware of the opportunities that exist – unless they see them being advertised in the local newspapers, or are otherwise alerted to them, such as by a friend or associate. <\/span><\/p>\n

For those who are prepared to search for them, it can be time consuming, and it is an activity that might need to be done several times a week. Writing a good proposal or quotation takes time, and frequently a short time frame (less than week) is given to respond. Furthermore, for individuals or firms that are open to working across the region, the challenge of searching for project opportunities is multiplied. Ultimately, many hours can be spent searching for requests for proposals, requests for expressions of interest, etc., instead of more productive (and hopefully paying) work.<\/span><\/p>\n

Introducing Project Calls<\/span><\/h3>\n

To address this problem, the parent company of ICT Pulse, ICT Pulse Consulting Limited, has launched <\/span>Project Calls<\/span><\/a>. At its core, Project Calls, provides a comprehensive listing of short-term project opportunities in the Caribbean for the independent consultant, contractor and service provider. Articles providing useful information and insights, along with new features and capabilities, will come on stream in the weeks and months ahead.<\/span><\/p>\n
