Meeting Expectations - On-time & On-budget

alt

GEN5 delivers projects that meet outcome expectations - on time, on budget - every time. That's IT project management the GEN5 way - the right way.  

Many consultancies claim project management as their core competency while staffing entry-level consultants at outrageous prices to try and get your job done. Every GEN5 consultant brings a minimum of ten years of project management expertise with large, high-risk enterprise IT projects. We’re accustomed to taking on the tough projects up front and we’re experts at rescuing the projects that those other guys have run aground.

Management

GEN5 believes that any company's strategy should define the projects they undertake. By definition then, we believe that the projects a company has in process will define their strategy - whether intentionally or not. Through our unique proprietary project methodology and management approach, we ensure that project outcomes are intentionally aligned with corporate strategic requirements before the project ever gets off the ground. We carefully examine and improve business processes to ensure that the IT projects we manage drive broad and enduring strategic value for our clients.  

Complex, high-risk enterprise projects are our specialty. Every GEN5 consultant is also an experienced project manager - not just because of their training and use of our methodology, but because we treat every engagement for every client as a project and we manage accordingly. Call today to see the difference - the GEN5 difference.

 

Rescue

It is well known that many large projects fail. One widely accepted study found that fewer than 40% are actually successful. At best, they don't accomplish expected outcomes, or run behind schedule and over budget - at worst, they fail completely resulting in wasted resources, heightened risk, and sometimes even corporate disasters.

Making these sobering facts even more alarming is the fact that over 90% of companies studied by the Working Council of CFO’s fail to execute their strategies. Based on these studies and others like them we know that:

  • Most companies are doing the wrong things far too often (the wrong projects)
  • Most companies don’t execute on the “right things” often enough (incomplete, failed projects or missed opportunities)
  • Most companies focus their projects on the wrong outcomes (improper project deliverables & poorly defined or unclear business benefits)
This means that around 60% of all projects fall short of expectations or fail completely. When it comes to IT projects, companies, and the consutants they hire to manage them, fail more often than they succeed. It is the mission of our Enterprise Projects practice to change this.
 
We know the tell-tale signs that warn of project trouble ahead. GEN5 turns project failure into project success and gets your large project or program back on track quickly. Our proprietary methodology provides the tools to rapidly diagnose the problems and provide proven solutions that get results.

“We still regularly refer to the strategic plan and go-forward planning documents you developed for us – in fact, we call them ‘The [GEN5} Plan’”.  - CFO, Benaroya Research Institute
