Kick Start Your Project

Project planning can be a challenge. Imposed deadlines create pressure to get started on "real work." The nature and scope of the work is often unclear. Deliverables may be hard to identify or describe. Team members are not yet familiar with each other. Stakeholder needs and expectations may be in conflict. Project Management Partners can help you solve these problems. PM Kick Start™ is a defined, proven process that applies generally accepted project management practices as described in current, internationally recognized project management standards. PM Kick Start™ can be used to develop the initial plan for a new project or to help get a troubled project back on track. Each PM Kick Start™ is a project -- we plan it, schedule it, and manage it in order to meet your needs and expectations. Our first step is to work with you to determine which of the following project plan components should be developed as part of the workshop:

Justification and objectives Assumptions and constraints Success criteria Team roles and expectations Work breakdown structure Cost and effort estimates Duration estimates Change control process Activity dependencies Communications plan Milestone schedule Responsibility assignments Risk response plans Escalation procedures

Our skilled facilitators will then lead the workshop so that everyone, including the project manager, can actively participate in the planning. When you are done, you will have a comprehensive project plan and a team that is fully committed to it. To learn more about how we can help you, please call us at +781-861-0124.
