But what if the organization is small or maybe just freelancers like us? We have just finished our four sites by one after one, their lot of the things we learned about managing the projects, sometimes situations were positive or vise-versa but the main thing is now we have our lesson learned to improve further. We got used to our unpredictable schedule days such as we started our day with one project site visit, then somewhere selection of the materials, then afternoon spend on another site visit & after that day ended with unexpected or unplanned meetings of another project.

IKEA aspires to improve the quality of life for the many people who have big dreams but small budgets.
