Program Management

Program Leadership

Everyone wants a roadmap for success. One that is battle tested, robust, and agile enough to meet with success even as change inevitably occurs. But not every organization has the resources to create one.

Our experienced team of program managers implement such a roadmap with our proven G1-framework. Excelling in complex program management for IT enterprise solutions, ERP platforms and EDI systems, we lead from the front with stakeholder collaboration and buy-in. We direct all applicable work streams and provide outside vendor management. Our clients appreciate our partnership in leadership, strategy, methodology and driving teams to be successful in any program.

Integrations

We partner with leaders from many industries to design, manage, and deliver seamless post-merger and acquisition integrations. Adept at aligning operations and implementing new processes throughout all business segments, our team executes projects with precision. We identify post-merger market opportunities and uncover operational redundancy. Whether implementing IT enterprise systems, overseeing day-to-day ERP operations, or managing internal teams, our team delivers on time, on budget, with minimal disruption.

Change Management

Organizational change is disruptive and often uncomfortable by definition. However, those organizations that stand as perennial industry leaders have deliberately embedded a tolerance for change into their DNA. The ability to effectively encourage and rapidly adapt to change is what defines successful organizations.

Our change management practice helps business leaders navigate tectonic shifts within their respective markets, proactively identify and capitalize on burgeoning growth opportunities, and develop strategies required for successful transformations. A key success factor is earning employee buy-in through visibility and education – without stated upfront goals, clear reasoning, and articulation of change benefits, any transformation effort will falter.

Our critical success framework equips our clients with the requisite tools and strategy to succeed. We are experienced in supporting clients’ transformational efforts, delivering sustainable change across a myriad of programs from Agile to Lean and Six Sigma.

Enterprise Application Implementation

We provide end-to-end, day-to-day operations, updates, enhancements and upgrades on a multitude of enterprise implementation platforms. This program of planning and execution has been proven to work on any enterprise platform.

Many of our clients utilize our program execution for Salesforce, NetSuite, SAP and Oracle Cloud, as well as complex, large scale EDI projects, among others. Our years of experience means we are equally as capable in waterfall, agile and scrum. As part of our portfolio of services we expertly manage international development teams and functional resources.

The Power of Consultants in Analytics-Driven Business Success

As companies strive for operational excellence and competitive advantage, leveraging analytics has become a necessity. But what can you do when there isn’t enough bandwidth within the organization to drive improvements highlighted in those analytics? How do you combat internal biases? A consulting firm might be the answer.

The Four P's of Operational Excellence

Lean/Six Sigma/DMAIC are great for solving operational problems. But when you simply have too many high priority problems to fix, and not enough resources, how do you turn a failing operation into a successful one? How do you stop losing money, retain good people and happy customers?

Fixing ERP system erosion to unlock business value

While the benefits of an effective ERP system can outweigh the high cost of implementation, challenges invariably arise when companies grow. In order to undo “system erosion” of poorly executed integration projects, companies must adopt an approach built on LEAN and Continuous Improvement principles that consider both process requirements and installed ERP system capabilities.

Trust as a Leadership Attribute

Operate more effectively and liberate the collective talent of your teams by fostering trust within your organization.

The 4C’s of Successful Continuous Improvement Initiatives

Clear strategic direction, communication across the organization, collaboration between functional teams, and consistency in operational practices are the four essential components of successful CI initiatives.

Faster System Implementations Mean Faster Benefits

The project planning and preparation phase of system implementation projects is crucial in getting a rapid deployment project executed correctly. Selecting the right partner for these types of implementations is critical to driving success.
