Project Review & Recovery

The consequences of failed projects can be grim. According to findings from the Center for Business Practices (CBP) nearly half of an organization's projects are at risk at any given time, no matter the size of the organization. With so much at stake, early detection and action is key to avoiding the substantial losses associated with troubled projects and project failures.

Common Symptoms of Troubled Projects

  • Critical issues in meeting milestones or completing deliverables
  • High risk of non-delivering anticipated benefits
  • Resources are not fully allocated to the project
  • The project is consistently behind its planned schedule
  • They are critical and/or significantly growing technical issues with the project

PM Solutions' addresses project recovery at both the organizational and individual project levels, depending on your specific needs. We provide three distinct service offerings to help your organization turn troubled projects around quickly.

Troubled Project Identification

For the organization, we help you and your PMO implement a standard Project Review & Recovery Process to monitor your portfolio of programs and projects and identify candidates for review and possible intervention.

Project Recovery & Turnaround

At the project level, our project turnaround experts work with you to develop and implement a Project Recovery Plan, to quickly determine how to best proceed with the project. We can then lead and/or coach your project team throughout the entire recovery process.

Performance Improvement: Institutionalizing Lessons Learned

As a project concludes, valuable lessons learned are only sometimes captured and rarely acted upon. Longer term, these lessons learned could have significant impact on the outcomes of future projects if they are filtered back into the organization's standard processes. PM Solutions helps you establish and maintain the processes for capturing, evaluating, and institutionalizing lessons learned that will improve performance across all projects.
