Project Services Consulcad has experience working with clients at every stage of the project life cycle - from a new idea through development, stand up and implementation to the eventual hand over to business operations. As trusted advisors to both public and private sector organisations, our expertise is backed by 25 years of successful outcomes and long term client relationships. We deliver individually tailored services to fit the specific needs of clients, and our services can be categorised into the following areas:
Project Portfolio Management (PPM) Our team regularly helps and advises clients on implementation methodologies and controls to ensure alignment of resources, costs and objectives across full portfolios of projects and programmes. Recent PPM projects have included working with large government departments as well as private sector organisations to help decision makers gain control and understanding of exactly how their projects and programmes fit together and are performing. Program and Project Management Office (PMO) Setting up and managing a PMO can be a challenging activity for any organisation. Consulcad can offer advice, guidance, and resources that may be required to facilitate the establishment, growth and ongoing management of new and existing PMOs. As part of our activities, we assist with developing new processes, templates and documentation, ensuring a smooth transition from the initial conversation right through to the transition to business as usual. Project Management Consulcad's background in Project Management within the engineering and construction industries has led to the development of a set of processes and tools that are arranged around a tried and tested delivery driven approach. Applying this approach across a variety of different industries and business functions allows our clients to achieve the project outcomes they seek in a tightly controlled and value focussed way. Project Start-Up One of the paradoxes of project management is that all projects are unique. However, our expertise in leading projects using the leading project management methodologies will help you choose the right one for your specific project requirements. Other key activities include: project governance; establishment of project goals; confirmation of scope, budget and project organisation; identification of key stakeholders; establishment of methodology and milestones; change management and cost controls. Project Delivery and Controls Consulcad uses a full range of project delivery tools, tailored to suit the clients' needs. Project controls are a consistent theme and respond to the need to control deliverables, cost, quality and risk. We often work for the project owner and represent their interests during planning, award, execution and handover. Our delivery services range from managing the entire project to providing specific advice or tools. Procurement and Tender Management Key to the success of managing the procurement and tender process is accurately defining the scope of work and key business drivers, and developing and managing the selection process to best suit your organisation with the products and services you are looking for. Having helped numerous clients to find the right solutions for their business, Consulcad is well placed to help you create and manage a rigorous process to ensure the best selections for your organisation. Independent Project Review Independent project reviews give you the reassurance and peace of mind to know that projects are on track and on budget. As well as being part of numerous government gateway review panels, Consulcad offers project review services in the form of gateway reviews, pre-flight reviews and in-flight reviews as part of our services portfolio. Project Recovery Sometimes things go wrong, and when they do you need to ensure that problems are fixed and that the project gets back on track as soon as possible. Consulcad has been called on to help a number of organisations rescue projects that have run into difficulties at critical milestones, and has been instrumental in the recovery of many large scale projects ensuring their eventual success. |
