Programme and Project Management is a crucial capability for us, and is essential to the success of the more complex challenges
Do your projects complete on time and to budget, and achieve the benefits defined in the business case? Do you have critical projects which need to be successful? Are you confident in the skills of the project managers in your organisation?
Whilst most professional services and turnaround firms talk about the importance of project management and programme offices, few have the capability to meet the toughest challenges.
Many deploy informal approaches, which often fall short when complexity escalates. We believe that change management programmes and large individual pieces of work require specific skills and expertise in order to maximise the chances of success against your business goals.
Maybe some objective, external project management expertise will add that extra spark to help your organisation get where it needs to be.
At nil plus ultra, we provide our clients with the right people with expert skills and the right tools to help them to overcome their obstacles and achieve their business goals. Our range of solutions can be tailored to meet our clients’ needs exactly. One of our offerings is for companies whose business is to implement software solutions. This requires the expertise of not only the functional and technical teams, but also of an experienced Project Manager to ensure that deliveries are to schedule, on budget and have successful outcomes.
Here’s a selection of some programmes our highly experienced Project Managers have delivered:
- Our project managers built and led the implementation of the largest Payroll solution in the world on Oracle technology delivering £2.1bn in benefits over 10 years for the NHS in England and Wales.
- We drove an initiative for Microsoft to up-skill their Project Managers in Western Europe to enable them to bid successfully and deliver projects which were 10 times their usual size.
- We successfully rolled out a global transformation programme for a $4bn, 20,000 employee cement producer, where performance improvements resulted in a 10% increase in share price over 9 months.
- When the global roll out of HR for a major hardware provider was faltering after the first nine months, they asked us for help. We redefined the project and were able consequently to lead it to a successful conclusion.
- We defined and led an ERP roll-out across Europe for an Industrial Valves manufacturer.
- We delivered Financial and Supply Chain Shared Services roll-outs across three multi-billion Industrial multi-nationals.
- We defined and implemented BPO solutions and transformation programmes for large UK private and public sector customers.
- Our clients have engaged our services to manage an off-shore SI on their behalf, or to work within their teams to drive the Change Management tasks to ensure business readiness.
On all of our projects we have reduced the client’s risk and steered their projects to success.
