Project Management

The Problem

Experience has shown us that projects are inherently at risk – through overrunning on time and cost and/or failing to deliver the benefits anticipated when commissioning the project. Such failures are almost invariably caused by:

• poor project definition by the project’s owner, perhaps because of insufficient consultation with stakeholders or their failure to be specific about requirements and desired outcomes
• lack of ownership and personal accountability by senior management
• inadequately skilled and experienced project personnel
• inadequate reporting arrangements and decision-making
• inconsistent understanding of required project activities, roles and responsibilities

The Solution

Project management helps to reduce and manage risk. It puts in place an organisation where lines of accountability are short and the responsibilities of individuals are clearly defined. Its processes are clearly documented and repeatable, so that those involved in the project can learn from the experiences of others.

The principles of project management are equally valuable for large complex projects or smaller less complex projects. The nature of your project will determine the project management approach you need, which should be adapted as required.
