Results• Defined and agreed PM methodology

• Course defined and versioned

• 600 engineers trained in six months

• 50 projects coached in one year

• Centre of Excellence established for renewing course and coaching

• Client took over course scheduling and renewal continued for all 3000 engineers




Management results

• First successful x functional program

• Client still using and developing PMMI

• Alignment methodology has created a better x functional development and marketing of products




Lessons Learnt• Without a well negotiated scope with the client, you

apply the wrong resources and the wrong governance

• You must have the dominate group onside to make any project successful

• Not everybody wants everything in PMBOK

• Continuous review, appraisal and negotiation to broker between client, contractors and provider is a must. Chartering work groups is a good tool

• Establishing CoE means sustaining continuous learning




Questions

• ALIGNMENT IS ESSENTIAL ON ALL PROJECTS and PROGRAMS
