Project Team Facilitation
Project Team Facilitation
With experience facilitating over 1,000 project-related workshops, we apply proven frameworks to align teams, refine execution plans, and manage risk. Our pre-authorization workshops focus on strategic alignment, business case development, and project execution planning, while post-authorization workshops help teams stay on track through short-term execution planning and lessons learned sessions. By structuring workshops around key project phases, we drive clarity, accountability, and successful outcomes.
Project Health checks
Project Health checks
We conduct independent project reviews (IPRs) to assess planning and execution, providing candid insights through one-on-one interviews and actionable recommendations for project managers and executives. Our approach integrates Cost Risk Analysis (CRA) and Schedule Risk Analysis (SRA), using our proprietary Project Readiness Inspection Scoring Model (PRISM) for precise risk mitigation. By combining IPRs with workshops and SRAs, we help teams strengthen project readiness, improve decision-making, and maintain control over costs and schedules through the entire project lifecycle.
Helping our clients improve their capital decision-making processes
What our clients say
The project delivery process and website that John put together for us has been instrumental in improving our project performance. I highly recommend John to anyone needing his expert services.
John is an excellent facilitator. He has worked with our company for several years and is the "Facilitator" of choice for strategic and tactical discussions in outlining major capital project implementation. He has an excellent understanding of our business and relates well with our company teams across the globe.
John has a brilliant ability to digest complexity from technical to organizational and subtly highlight issues and get the required commitment to resolve (those issues). I recommend John highly.
