Who and What are We?

We are a niche project management consulting company. Actually our focus is benefits realisation and project governance: all things business change related. Projects are just a necessary evil in pursuit of opportunity.

We are different and our approach is insightful. We suggest there is plenty of illustrative material on this web-site to allow you to make your own judgement - for example See our thoughts on Common Sense In Projects (we define common sense as "that which is commonly considered right and proper when observed", not "that which anyone and everyone has already thought of" ).

We offer insights into the nature of corporate change via projects. Our passion is to understand issue root-causes and suggest solutions that drive value add.

Our skills are in Corporate Governance and the Management of Change via Projects & Programmes. Our services are all about knowledge transfer. If you have interests in these areas then keep reading....

Projects Are Just The "Change" Step In The Benefits Management Journey

Sustainable business revolves around Governance - the process that provides assurance to an organisation's stakeholders that their interests are being well cared for.  Stakeholders all pursue their own vision of benefit (by the realisation of opportunity and the avoidance of threat).  The heart of achieving new or enhanced benefits is the creation of change: every project's raison d'etre - change is hard, change in general is something people are resistant to.

Change is achieved by projects run within tolerance limits, with defined escalation routes. Projects enable benefits. But benefits themselves are realised in the management of day-to-day operations. Organisations in total operate business-as-usual and change initiatives (IE projects) via procedures, roles and competencies.

Our Services

We consult, mentor and train in the full spectrum of Benefits Management: from Governance (Corporate & IT) to Project Management and Control. We are expert in frameworks such as PRINCE2® (we are accredited to administer the foundation & practitioner exams - formally we are an ATO “PRINCE2® is a trademark of the Office of Government Commerce in the United Kingdom and other countries”)), we are expert in PMBOK, in Six Sigma, in CobITtm, in CMMI et.al.). Our expertise encompasses the associated tools & techniques linked to the frameworks.

We have experienced the erosion of practicality through blame-cultures in many corporate settings and so bring a perspective on restoring to the corporate environment some common sense.  Hence our reference to Common Sense In Projects noted above).

If you know what your needs are you can pick+mix from the topics in Consulting, Mentoring & Training Offerings & pick+mix the delivery style. If you need solutions developed then we will conduct consultancy assignments to determine the required skills transfer then provide hands-on project delivery or mentoring and support and training: your choice.

We can develop the required parts of your internal methods, procedures, competencies, roles and responsibilities for inclusion in your Governance Framework and Quality Management Systems (QMS). We can support your capability development initiatives with training materials that encourage staff to use an appropriate mix of informed situational decision making and adherence to your Quality systems.
