projectmanagement & consulting

Our philosophy -

Your benefits

Our philosophy on delivering projects is simple: Nothing can be achieved without focus.

 

No matter how great or small a project is, for it to be successful, it needs to be approached for what it is: “A temporary group activity designed to produce a unique product, service or result”.

 

This requires a different approach and management than is required for the already demanding operational activities of your business. Often your organisation may not have the bandwidth or the expertise to manage such projects – we can therefore offer you the flexible and temporary support that you need.

And no matter how great or small, any project that you are considering must be important to you so it is just as important to us.

 

Managing a project can be viewed as similar to preparing for and running a Marathon. One can draw parallels between delivering a project and the achievement of finishing a Marathon by referring to the Project Management Institute’s (PMI) 5-step project groups:

 

Marathon PMC’s approach is based on proven standards and methodologies, such as PMI’s PMBOK and PRINCE2, but because no company or situation is the same, our approach is also pragmatic and flexible.

Together we can tailor a project management approach to meet your company’s specific needs, culture and business environment.
