We provide a technical Project Manager to lead the design as well as an implementation team of experienced Architects and Senior Engineers to implement, test and transition to the Atlas Cloud. There would then be a handover to the Atlas Cloud support team which is staffed by experienced Engineers at 1st, 2nd and 3rd line levels of support. The entire process would be overseen by the CTO of Atlas Cloud from the very beginning, throughout the delivery and ongoing support thereafter. Atlas Cloud uses the IT Service Delivery Management framework, ITIL, and all of the support processes are designed around this.
