Project Portfolio Management and PMO Setup Services

An increasing number of organizations are using Project Portfolio Management (PPM) technologies as a means of selecting the right projects as well as manage projects. Project management methods are used 'to do projects right' and the methods used in PPM are used 'to do the right projects'. In effect PPM is becoming the method of choice for selection and prioritising resources and inter-related projects in many industries and sectors. Products and services companies rely on efficient and effective management of their supporting operations to be competitive. Company plans are often organized in initiatives or programs. By definition, program management is a process of managing several related projects with the intention of improving an organization's performance. Project management is the discipline of planning, organizing, and managing resources to bring about the successful completion of specific project goals and objectives.

G-ESI Methodology
Our team of experienced management consultants and business analysts work with the client C-Level management and stakeholders to review the business strategy, goals, objectives and the operations performance. Preliminary assessment is done via a web based tool using Q&A and interviews. The environment is assessed via audits and using non-intrusive software tools to gather benchmarking data. Data analyses are performed to determine system operations and performance hot spots. A snapshot of the performance status is compared with company and/or industry metrics to determine strengths and weaknesses. A SWOT analysis report is created and reviewed with the client management team. Based on company priorities and constraints the PMO is designed outlining requirements, processes and technologies. A complete program is created with project plans to implement recommended technology(ies), processes, training and support.
