Author(s): Jonathan L. Moscovici*+
Companies: Quintiles
Keywords: SAS ; Project Management ; Statistical Programming ; Efficient
Abstract:

When projects pile up and deadlines draw near, an effective SAS programmer often needs to become, among other things, an efficient SAS programmer. One point of view is that the adequate juggling of several projects can be broken down into main ideas such as clear and effective communication amongst collaborators, task automation and proper organization. These keys concepts will be outlined and exemplified using real code and techniques, facilitating the quest for high quality deliverables at breakneck speeds.
