Exisiting Methodologies - Project industrial standards such as PMP do address these issues and challenges; however there standard application can often be too time consuming, detailed and bureaucratic, and still not address the above issues effectively.
- In deciding to implement any project methodology, some organisations have had to employ consultants and contractors for 3 months or longer, incurring significant additional cost for the organisation.
- Proposed Solution
- A tailored Programme Office run by internal staff,
- designed using industrial standards such as PMP-PMI.
- Clear solution that can be easily managed by internal staff.
- The service proposes a consultancy service to
- Analyse existing PM practices
- review and document recommendations for improvement
- if appropriate, set-up a Programme Management Office (PMO) structure.
Option One - The Consultant will carry out the following:
- Review the current status of how projects are run in your organisation,
- Propose a structured approach to implementing and managing a Project/Programme Office in accordance with the scale of your organisation,
- Provide recommendation which can be implemented by permanent staff.
- Deliverables
- The recommendation will be documented by the consultant and a review meeting held with an appropriate officer within your organisation to ensure the recommendations are fully understood.
- Your organisation can then implement this recommendation without further external assistance.
Advantage - The advantage of this option is that you receive clear expert direction on what is required to implement a PMO, specifically produced to address the requirements of your organisation, at minimal cost.
Option TwoThe Consultant will carry out the following: - Review the current status
- Provide recommendations for improved methods as outlined in Option 1.
- Implement the new methods and train the permanent staff on using these.
Advantage - The PMO office is set up for the client and the client staffs are trained to use it.
- This approach reduces the risk of delays in implementing an effective PMO, as the Consultant will manage the actual implementation of the PMO.
Option Three - The Consultant will carry out the following:
- Additional follow-up reviews based on either option 1 or 2.
- Following implementation of the PMO, the consultant would
- undertake structured reviews on how the staff have adapted to working with the new structure
- suggest further improvement as required.
- The ideal time for the initial review session would be about 6 weeks after the staffs have started working with the new structure, followed by a further review in eight weeks time.
