At the start of the project, we build a joint project plan with both our resources.  Kept in Microsoft Project Server on a dedicated website, it can be updated by both project managers, and used for status reporting and viewing by team members.

We use a variety of tools and methods for communication and visibility:

• Shared Project Plans 
• Dedicated Website for Project Team Members
• Bi-Weekly Status Reports
• Web-based Issue Tracking System
• Email, Phone, and Instant Messenger
• Access to converted applications on MT's server.
• Secure VPN connections tunnels.
• Quarterly Project Reviews
