Administrative Services

The U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics periodically reports on the evolving role of office professionals. The report asserts that "office automation and organizational restructuring have led secretaries and administrative assistants to o assume a wider range of new responsibilities once reserved for managerial and professional staff."

By sheer customer demand, DSCI developed a base of expertise to perform the administrative and clerical duties necessary to support an organization efficiently. Members of our administrative staff serve on technical project teams and provide critical services such as:

● scheduling meetings and appointments

● tracking and managing team schedules

● assisting with presentations (preparation)

● preparing correspondence, memos, charts, tables, graphs, etc.

● making travel arrangements

● coordinating team activities

The presence of administrative assistants minimizes project cost by removing certain responsibilities from engineers and other technical staff. You can fully appreciate this point if you have ever run into a travel planning snafu that took the better part of a day to resolve!

Our administrative assistants are energetic, have excellent communication skills, and are comfortable in an automated office environment.

We not only encourage our customers to budget administrators as part of larger teams, but we offer the support "à la carte" for customers who want to outsource for longer-term onsite service.
