If anyone refers to your order as a project, you’re in trouble. The word is an omen that signifies delays and complexities.
Tip If you are ordering five dedicated circuits and your carrier tells you that it is being handled as a project, you should just tack on another 5 to 15 days to your timeline without blinking. Adopting a Zen-like sense of peace and acceptance is a good move at this point.
There are generally signs that identify when an order is treated as a project, like the quantity of circuits ordered. Trying to break an order of five circuits down into an order of three circuits and another order of two circuits won’t help you out. If all the circuits are going to the same building, the carrier will aggregate them and still treat the order as a (dreaded) project.
