How projects usually start

Email first for project requests. Call first for urgent issues.

Project emails create a clear written trail. Calls are best for urgent outages, follow-ups, or quick clarification when timing matters.

What to include when you reach out
  1. Send the basics.Email what you need, what system is involved, your location, urgency, and any vendors already involved.
  2. Clarify the request.Craig Technology Services reviews the details and follows up with practical questions if needed.
  3. Review the setup.For project work, the next step is understanding current systems, users, equipment, vendors, and known pain points.
  4. Scope the next step.Project work should move into a written scope or quote before changes are made.
