I picked up a couple of piece of work yesterday and spent this morning clarifying the requirements and getting them off the starting blocks.
Both appeared to be relatively straightforward opportunities that could be turned around with little effort in short timeframes.
I discussed the first with the Sales Guy, clarified a minor discrepancy and within 40 minutes I had the correct teams engaged to develop the solution and quotes.
The second was somewhat different. For starters the Sales Lead didn't bother turning up to the kick off call and neither did the Project Manager. Our Architect did appear and, in his genial manner, dismissed the Approach being undertaken by the Designers and told them to go and do something much simpler and more appropriate.
After ten minutes it appeared that there was nothing for me to do, other than issue a short call summary and then close out the work request.
However this is now looking a little premature and I may actually need to get my hands dirty.
