CLIENT PROBLEM
A tier 1 global bank required a deep investigation into all active programmes at a portfolio level to make strategic decisions. The ultimate goal was to achieve a reduction in the number of vendors providing services and internalise key delivery functions and intellectual property (120 disparate applications were currently used in the reporting process).
The client was unable to acquire reliable metrics and key performance indicators due to inadequate governance systems in place and poor data quality. Additionally, projects were not recorded in their Clarity system appropriately and therefore reporting was inconsistent across programmes.
MHC APPROACH
MHC provided highly capable PMO team. A Senior Project Manager and Project Management Analyst were engaged at the client’s site to conduct a deep investigation into all programmes in the portfolio and implemented the adequate governance tools. Our team of consultants implemented processes and tools in the following areas:
Result
Reporting and governance processes were substantially improved. The executive team is now able to measure programmes progress accurately. Consequently, they are able to assess the status of on-going strategies and possess richer information for decision making.
Due to the success of this project the client asked our team of consultants to roll this project out across an additional 145 projects.
