Hi Basant,

I am a PM/PS consultant, my core is PM.

This is a rare combination in the consulting field and it has very rare opportunities. You need to hunt companies which are related to Mining, Oil & gas (not all, only specific) etc.

The demand for PM/PS consultant in business area where the company manufactures based on their customer request. They use PS to handle the each customer request has a project and PM will be there for the maintenance.

Unless you get a opportunity, you can not break through.

Also, you need to know part of financial terms and process to handle complete PS.

All the best

Regards

Terence

Thanks Terence,

Yes, I am working on SAP PS and got 2 projects, Since 3 months. First project was for 1 month and worked to some extent. Now I am working for a NGO Company who is basically dealing with R&D in water management. Yes, challenges are there for me as every object in the project structure is WBS. E.g.: all item lines where budget are allocated. Will discuss further for more details. Yes, one more points that there is time sheet integration in this.

Thanks,

Basant
