Creating a benefits driven projects delivery organisation
Delivering effective change: Despite the advent of professional Project Management qualifications, organisation specific project frameworks, and the continued focus on soft skills development - in most organisations - the delivery of change has failed to improve dramatically. Delivery levels are inconsistent and rely on multiple factors, including sponsorship, complexity, resources, project frameworks and tools.
Assessing function capability: We have developed best in class tools to provide a clear framework for understanding, assessing and improving organisational project delivery capability in order to
- help project management functions to understand their current level of maturity
- identify any specific organisational barriers and functional and individual skill gaps preventing optimum performance
- build comprehensive functional and individual action plans to address barriers and gaps and improve overall capability.
This is done via :
- A clear definition of key project roles, the competencies required and the progression between them
- Practical tools for assessing individual competency and skills gaps
The Capability Assessment Framework structure and content is clearly aligned to the Pelicam Project Intelligence™ Method. It is unique in the fact it will identify method and process shortfalls, cultural challenges, organisational issues and common project manager opportunities for improvement. Once identified we work with client teams to orchestrate improvements through customised project intelligent workshops.
What it means for you …client side
- An independent, pragmatic view of the level someone in a project role is operating at (e.g. team member, project manager, programme manager etc) and the degree of competence that person is demonstrating in that role.
- Identification of skills gaps and development of individual training and development plans
- Discussions regarding promotion and career development
- Understanding of key roles and definition of role profiles
- Appraisal of existing staff and effective recruitment of new staff
- Guaranteed visibility of activities within the team and early identification of core issues and remedies
