IT Project Advisory

 

IT projects are increasingly complex and challenging. The narrative is all too familiar: an organisation decides to undertake a large-scale project or programme, intending to achieve major strategic and operational benefits.  At first enthusiasm for the initiative is high, resources are committed and strategies agreed. 

However, without formal processes, control, continued high-level sponsorship and the correct management skills the project or programme can quickly become compromised. Senior executives may become preoccupied with other competing business priorities and as a result the project or programme loses momentum or direction and may even fail to deliver its objectives.

KPMG’s services help organisations implement appropriate strategy, processes, controls and sponsorship that aim to reduce the risk of project failure or overrun and ultimately increase the likelihood of project success.

Independent project assurance provides objective, independent and practical feedback to senior executives, reporting on current status and communicating openly and honestly with clients.

Where a project is in danger of failing, KPMG can review areas of concern in projects with a view to articulating the current status, strengths, weaknesses and likelihood of delivering benefits.  We make practical recommendations on the actions required to recover the project or bring to an orderly close.

We provide:

  • Project or programme management support with tested processes, supporting tools and experienced resources that aim to deliver business critical programmes and projects for our clients.
  • Assistance in the selection and evaluation of software packages using tested methodologies and supporting tools.
  • Well established and extensive track record of UK specific, pan European and Global projects and programmes.
The UK firm now has over 150 qualified project and programme managers (e.g. Prince2, MSP and PMP professionals). KPMG global network is a member of the Project Management Corporate Council and actively inputs into the Project Management Institute working groups.
