Increased Value Through Engagement Management
Neudesic Engagement Managers achieve objectives through:
● Providing working software every 30-45 days
● Elimination of more than 40% of low-value project activities
● A managed “value stream” that reduces costs and magnifies results
● A pragmatic approach to both rigor and agility
● Balancing stakeholder collaboration with project control
● Process tuning by trained project management professionals
● Frequent success measurement intervals
Most projects begin with clearly defined business objectives that consider the fundamental needs of the organization. However, all too often, participants (stakeholders, users and developers) in projects fail to remain focused on the key business objectives that provide the original motivation to initiate the project. Without clear and consistent alignment along strategic lines, a project will fail to meet those objectives.
Neudesic Engagement Managers provide well-established project guidelines to ensure the successful fulfillment of customer business objectives. They start every project with an alignment to stated objectives. Objectives are examined, questioned and understood before project planning or development activities begin, ensuring that the project begins on the correct course.
When starting a managed project, Neudesic Engagement Managers work with customer and consultant team members to:
● Develop a solution road map and project plan
● Customize a constraint profile for budget, schedule and scope control
● Indentify, mitigate and manage project risk
● Provide team direction and leadership
Neudesic Engagement Managers focus on the key project management activities that yield the highest value to meet project objectives. Recognizing that each customer is different, and each project has different needs, Neudesic emphasizes process tuning rather than a “one size fits all” software development methodology.
Leveraging decades of experience with processes from PMBOK, MSF, RUP(UP), Scrum and Lean, our Engagement Managers are equipped to use industry standard methodologies with an eye towards process tuning and right-sized processes for the project at hand.
