Successful high-impact initiatives need the right leadership, planning, risk mitigation, communication, and coordination.
Our Services
Depending on the culture and maturity of your organization, we can apply an appropriate project management methodology to your initiative with our standard options being agile, iterative, or waterfall.
Agile
We support Kanban and SAFe (Scaled Agile Framework) initiatives. This methodology is usually focused on 2 week sprints and is appropriate for organizations with a collaborative culture, empowered teams, and flexible management.
Iterative
Between Agile and Waterfall, we support what is sometimes called Iterative or mini-Waterfall. This methodology is usually implemented as Waterfall iterations which are longer than Agile sprints and shorter than a Waterfall project and is good for organizations that prefer to complete larger iterations with each delivery, significant analysis for each iteration, and a more traditional management style.
Waterfall
Waterfall with its focus on detailed project plans can be supported. This methodology is usually focused on completing one phase of a project before proceeding to the next and success with this methodology requires stable scope and requirements, quality upfront analysis, realistic estimates for the work, and an adequate staffing profile.
