Project Management
Project Management
We are passionate about health and social care in the NHS and pride ourselves in being able to meet even the most specific needs of our customers – from strategic delivery and analytics to clinical service re-design and cost improvement.
Our expertise
Project management is crucial for the NHS to ensure the efficient and effective delivery of patient care. Optimised resource allocation, controlled costs, and managed risks all contribute to sound project management. These are essential to helping organisations across the NHS achieve better results that ultimately lead to improved patient outcomes and operational efficiency.
We understand there isn’t a one-size-fits-all approach to project management. That’s why we have created a comprehensive framework and tool kit for delivering effective project management that is flexible and adaptable to organisational needs. Our approach to project management utilises our collective experience, learning, and tools and techniques, meaning we can work closely with you to review and improve your existing arrangements and/or provide dedicated support to deliver your activities.
We have a strong track record of helping organisations to improve their PMO capabilities. Our understanding of the NHS allows us to undertake comprehensive reviews, and provide dedicated delivery support that has led to significant improvements in governance arrangements, PMO team capacities and capabilities, and successfully delivering complex programmes time after time.
Conducting maturity assessments
We assess the strengths and weaknesses of current PMO arrangements using our PMO Maturity Assessment tool, looking at domains such as governance, risk management and outcomes management. Our diagnostic report can summarise findings and set out opportunities for development.
Designing bespoke governance and operating models
We work with you to design a PMO operating model, drawing on our tried and tested toolkit, tailored to your organisational structure, objectives and culture. We will ensure this addresses all essential internal and external requirements and supports delivery.
Building new operating models and training staff
We implement, communicate and embed new PMO models and methodologies. We focus on behaviours and culture as well as processes, working with staff at all levels to transfer knowledge, build confidence and ensure sustainability.
Running embedded PMO support (organisation or programme)
We run PMO functions as a standalone offer or work alongside your team to provide additional capacity and capability. This is sometimes a time-limited offer to deliver a specified programme of work, or provided on an ongoing basis.
