Every team warned us but it still happened. Third week panic. The week where you finally know what you're doing and realize there is no way you can get it all done. Especially when DOT sends you the final week calendar and asks for all final deliverables to be submitted by MONDAY so they have time for translation before we leave. And a publicity / photo-op meeting with local governement and IBM execs on Tuesday. And final presentations to all 4 clients on Thursday. And flying back to Istanbul on Friday.
So of course the first task was re-negotiating due dates! Does the client really need translation? They all speak great English, we argued. Success! Final deliverables now due on Wednesday by noon. But we still need a nearly-final draft ready to review with our clients on Monday so we can tweak it a little and submit the final version by Wednesday. Needless to say, most of us worked at least part of this weekend.
Here's a bit of our final presentation:
