It is our belief that when solid processes are established, we will allow our UCM teams to be more effective because they will not be bogged down by operational issues.\u00a0 Since the team&#8217;s formation, there have been a number of changes in the structure of our team. Below is an overview of each team and their responsibilities.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Operations<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Operations specializes in budgeting, procurement, human resources, and general operations for our UCM team.

Recently, our project management team led the transition of UCM from Wrike to Asana, our new project management tool.
