Internal Client
Approach
Our approach to serving / supporting both
Clients includes
• A consistent approach & closer liaison with each major client
•Systems – Internal growth and consolidation
• Specific Sector solutions
• Addressing ongoing challenges
Approach
Our External Client Project Managers and
their teams require a programme that:
•
•
•
•
•
•
defines the contracted work
conforms to their WBS
allows them to predict and manage their cashflow
aligns with their reporting cycle
demonstrates progress against a baseline of their choosing
defines timing and relationship with both their and third party
activities
• summarises build sequences and complex relationships
• accommodates change
• supports EVA techniques
Approach
Our Internal Project teams and Management
require a programme that:
• defines our contracted work
• demonstrates build sequences and complex relationships
• defines timing and relationship with both client and third
party activities
• provides output for specific customers
• captures complete and demonstrates current and future
activities
• allows us to predict and manage our cashflow
• provides output to meet internal reporting cycles
• demonstrates the impact of change
• supports Earned Budget techniques

Systems
Updated Strategic Plan 2009

My role is to understand and share the key structural
programme requirements which generally centre around
the WBS, Cost Loading and Coding
 All have Planning and Project Controls standards
 The standards are accessible
Sector Solutions
Outsourcing - External Hosting
LoadSpring delivers Web-based
application hosting
Customer provides Internet access &
Software licenses
 SpringBoard Control Console™ interface
 Robust security with strong passwords
 24/7 access with UK and US support
 Scalable, efficient, collaborative working
 Removes company firewall issues
 New instance available within days
 Dilutes in house IT resource demand
Practical Programme Challenges
• Do you see what I see?
– Matching system settings
– Sharing layouts & filters
• Retrofitting of coding structures
– WBS
– Activity Codes
