GUIDING ORGANIZATIONS TO THE ACHIEVEMENT OF TARGETED OUTCOMES

Achieving targets and milestones requires efficient and effective cross-functional resource allocation.

While organizational leaders often have depth and breadth of experience within specific functional areas, few resources have expertise in cross-functional collaboration, resource allocation, and decision making.

Objectives and Roadmaps

To execute organizational strategy and deliver targeted outcomes, targets must first be clearly defined. Every resource in the organization should have a shared focus on specific, measurable outcomes that have a clear execution plan within a targeted timeframe.

Roadmaps translate targets into prioritized, sequenced, action plans that guide resource allocation (budget, focus, human capital) across the enterprise.

 

Project Portfolio Management (PPM)

Project portfolio management incorporates evaluation and selection processes that enable leadership to identify and focus efforts on the best investments.

While project management addresses your organization’s need to do projects ‘right’, project portfolio management addresses your organization’s need to do the ‘right’ projects at the ‘right’ time.

 

Project Management Office (PMO)

Organizations often address new demands and growing requirements by adding more people and/or complexity to existing processes without cross-functional consideration and alignment on fit-for-purpose, efficient, and effective project-evaluation and management processes.

Without effective processes, organizations may rush into projects and investments without a clear understanding of dependencies and requirements. This causes unnecessary stalls and delays while the clock is ticking and contract resources, licenses, etc. require payment.

 

Program and Change Management

When attempting to address challenges, overwhelmed and inexperienced organizations often focus on the capabilities of technology solutions.

A technology-centric focus can result in poor outcomes if the considerations and approach do not include effective program and change management.
