Project Doctor

No organisation wants a project to fail. But sometimes, despite best endeavours, projects do not proceed as planned and don’t achieve the sustained benefits originally sought. Having delivered and recovered challenging projects for over 20 years, we have found that most project delays are due to the absence of an achievable and approved project plan, a formal benefits management process and ongoing changes to scope resulting in missed milestones and associated budget blowouts.

‘Project Doctor’ is a project recovery service delivered by a highly experienced team of senior consultants, each with an average track record of 20 years in project recovery. ‘Project Doctor’ provides a cross-industry capability, with bespoke approaches for information technology project recovery in particular.

The Project Doctor team will perform, as the initial step, a ‘Health Check’ to identify the issues causing the delays then construct a plan of rectification. This plan will enact the ‘Surgery’ to re-scope, re-plan and re-focus the program of work into clearly defined and achievable milestones - agreed by project sponsors and the project team. The final offering is the ‘After Care’, including a post-implementation review with a business benefits realisation review. These reviews coupled with their recommended actions put projects back on track and ensure subsequent business and IT projects have a greater chance of success. We provide our clients with one of the most experienced, hands-on teams in Australia and, as a result, are able to boast a 100% success rate in project completion.

Our Project Doctor team is happy to perform a thorough health assessment, providing practical and independent advice. Contact us to find out more.
