Project management
A single project led end to end: a scope people agree on, a plan they believe, risks managed rather than listed, suppliers who deliver, and reporting that tells sponsors what they need before they ask.
Ask about a projectConsulting and contracting
Project, programme and portfolio management.
Delivery leadership for organisations in engineering, manufacturing, IT and technology, logistics and supply chain, defence and retail. On site, hybrid or remote. Agile, waterfall, lean or hybrid, as the work demands.
What we do
Four services. Each led personally.
Programme management
Related projects shaped into one programme with outcomes the organisation actually needs, tranches and gates with clear decision points, and benefits tracked through delivery and after it.
Ask about a programmePortfolio management and PMO
Setting up or running the project office: prioritisation leaders trust, stage gates and standards that fit the organisation, and dashboards built from the registers rather than from opinion.
Ask about a PMODelivery assurance and recovery
An independent health check of a project in trouble, a clear view of what is really happening, and the plan to get it back on track, led if you want it led.
Ask about a health checkDelivery approaches
The right method for the work.
The approach is chosen for the work and written down at the start, so everyone knows how decisions get made.
Agile
Short iterations, a prioritised backlog, a working increment every few weeks, and an owner who can decide.
Waterfall
Defined stages with a gate between each, for work where a wrong turn is expensive and the scope is known.
Hybrid
Gated governance for the sponsor and the money, agile delivery inside the gates for the teams.
Lean and Lean Six Sigma
Waste out, variation down, value flowing: measured improvement that holds after the project leaves.
Transformation programmes
Operating model, process and systems changing together, in tranches, with benefits owned by named people.
Pilots before rollout
Prove it small with agreed success criteria, measure the result, then scale, adapt or stop.
Engagement models
Three ways to work with us.
A health check
A short, fixed-scope review of a project or programme, with a written report, options and a recommendation.
Interim delivery
We lead your project, programme or portfolio, on site, hybrid or remote, for as long as the work needs.
A retained project office
We set up and run your PMO on a retained basis, so the governance keeps working after the first project ends.
How it starts: you get in touch, we reply, and we agree a short written approach before any commitment.
Questions
Asked before most engagements.
Do you only work in your six sectors?
No. Those are the sectors where our delivery experience lies. Delivery discipline travels; if you have something to deliver, ask.
Who will I actually work with?
The senior lead you meet at the start stays with the work to the end. There is no hand-over to someone you have not met.
Do you work on site?
Yes. On site, hybrid or remote, whichever the work needs.
Agile or waterfall?
Whichever the work needs, and usually both: gated governance for the sponsor and the money, agile delivery inside the gates. See the delivery approaches above.
How does an engagement start?
You get in touch, we reply within two working days, and we agree a short written approach before any commitment is made.
Next step
Tell us what you need to deliver.
A short conversation is usually enough to say whether we can help and how we would approach it.
