For Projects without order (T&M), the Relationship Manager performs the Project Manager tasks.

Depending on the client and the project, the Project Managers contact person is the relationship-manager or the Client Project Manager.

  • reports status and calls status meetings with the counterpart
  • raises risks (like overspend or delays) counterpart
