WHY CHOOSE SMART SERVICES?

Quality Assurance Program

QA/QC starts with the proposal stage and is carried out through project completion. At the proposal stage, we talk with the Client and develop a clear scope of services. This allows for accurate understanding of the deliverable, knowing that it meets the Client’s expectations.

Frequent & Clear Communication

between us and the Client assures everyone is on the same page from proposal stage to completion of your project.

Cost-Containment

Our staff is qualified to do the job and we constantly communicate to prevent cost overruns. Overruns typically occur when staff is not properly trained, there is a lack of communication, or the scope of work is not clearly defined.
