Pathway IT Consultants provides expert project management in addition to training.

Delivering IT projects is extremely difficult, and this is proven by the high failure rate. At least 65 per cent of projects are stopped before cutover, go over budget or don’t deliver the expected benefits. This is an astonishing failure rate, and it has been consistent for over two decades.

Our practical project management consultancy is based on lessons learnt delivering critical projects and transformation programmes across a number of industry sectors. (Including charity, transport, finance, hotels, automotive and education.) We have specialist knowledge in the following areas: 

• Dress rehearsals. (The most effective risk management and cutover preparation activity a project can complete.) 
• Practical risk management. 
• Project initiation. (Poor project initiation is a major factor in 80 per cent of IT project failures.)
• Contingency planning.
• Budget management. 
• Proof of concept activities.
• Aligning the master data management strategy to the project. 
• Selecting methodologies and Agile frameworks.
• Use of hybrid methodology.
• Dependency management across teams.
• Coordinating infrastructure builds in an Agile environment.
• Cutover management.
• Runbook preparation.
• Managing Go/No Go meetings.
• Post go-live support.

Pathway project management can be tailored to your specific requirements, whether it’s advice on a specific project issue, methodology, mentoring, project management, project health checks or project rescue.
