Situation

Global Business Transformation: Assuring delivery and reducing risk

The global transformation programme at one of the

world’s largest private companies was struggling to

see an integrated view of plans and risks, leading to

significant programme delays and unwelcome delivery

surprises

Solution

We built a bespoke control mechanism that provided:

One Consolidated transformation

plan

A global programme risk management

system

Dashboard reporting at enterprise,

programme and project level

Outcome

This led to a standardised toolset which is responsible for the largest current IT project in the

world. We provided:

Situational awareness based on validated facts

and data for Programme and

Project Managers enabling decisions based on real time
