Has anyone worked on a project with two project managers?

We are starting a project where an outside vendor is involved. That vendor will be installing the "system." As such, they are going to be providing a schedule, etc... for the project. It was agreed to, that our organization will also be providing a project manager that will work closely with that project manager, and coordinate the efforts of the organization to ensure everything is being done to make the implementation a success. I am going to be that person.

Has anyone dealt with a situation like this before?

Any thoughts?

Sounds like you are on the buyer end which then makes you the boss in this instance. This is a very easy process to deal with given that you are the boss and the seller PM will be reporting to you. As the buyer PM, you need to follow all the contractual guidelines and if none exist, create them and hold the seller PM accountable.
