Foundations

70% of major transition programmes fail.  
By building strong foundations, we help place your programmes in the 30% which succeed.  

 

 
 

A programme can only succeed if the right foundations are in place.  

Complex transitions need good planning and alignment. Adopting strong working practices creates islands of stability early, ensuring your delivery organisation & plans start out on the right path.  

 
 

The chances of a programme’s success are significantly enhanced if all ambitions and expectations are out in the open before starting. So it makes sense to begin by engaging with all stakeholder groups to establish what you’re trying to do & what you have got to do it with.  

Working with your leadership teams to establish core delivery strategies, we help you create a robust delivery mechanism to allow effective and efficient progress. Early alignment is vital to a programme’s ongoing cohesion. 

Additional elements of ensuring the foundations are firm on your major programme include:  

  • Introducing the necessary mechanics (the programme engine room) to ensure successful governance and control. 

  • Ensuring programmes and projects are shaped and resourced correctly with appropriate definition and control 

  • Designing and implementing progress tracking and control mechanisms (Risks, Assumptions, Issues, Defects, Change Control, Dependencies, Decisions, and so on)

  • Clear and consistent communication across all stakeholders to provide awareness, confidence and accelerate momentum. 

Ongoing alignment across all delivery teams and partners not only propels you towards successful change, it also builds self-sufficiency within the organisation.
