Delivery projects typically require the configuration of multiple Equifax products and services, and the integration of those products and services into the customer’s systems and business processes. Client Implementation projects can run for three to 12 months and require the engagement of various parties and teams within Equifax and the customer. The projects can be high-profile engagements and can require a high-level of stakeholder engagement and interpersonal skill.
