Planning and managing successful programs is a longstanding challenge for many organizations. As the complexity, risk and criticality of IT-based initiatives increases, so does their potential for exceeding the budget, falling behind schedule or failing to be delivered at all.
Collaborative believes that effective program management is the most successful way to address complex project issues and ensure that programs do not spiral out of control. As such, we have developed an innovative Program Management Framework, which incorporates and extends classic program and project management processes. Our Program Management Framework solution focuses on five interlocking elements, which we blend seamlessly to provide superior program and project management. Specifically, these steps include:
- Ensure portfolio of programs/projects is business-value-driven.
- Establish an effective governance model that focuses on flexibility.
- Apply rigorous project management methods throughout the life cycle.
- Facilitate planned communication throughout the organization.
- Help secure continuous, effective executive management involvement.
The Collaborative Program Management Framework can be applied to any industry. Combined with our skilled, experienced professionals, we can help any business assess and improve its program capabilities, effectively prioritize programs, optimize and supplement staffing needs, and establish and/or run a Program Office. As a result, clients receive a substantial improvement in their ability to enhance visibility and control; deliver on stakeholders’ expectations; reduce the risk of project failure; and improve return on program/project investments.
