Program Management
Large programs represent great risks and challenges, and even greater opportunities. Complex programs are difficult for even a highly experienced team to manage. ProChain’s program management components have been effectively applied on programs with hundreds of workers and dozens of subprojects, with excellent results. They extend the basic single-project toolset and methodology in several important ways:
Presentations and materials
help structure the difficult process of creating a schedule architecture that matches the program’s needs.
Full integration into Fusion Online
allows remote schedule status, analysis and updating for large programs across even the largest of organizations.
These tools, coupled with the knowledge and experience of ProChain’s Senior Consultants, can result in excellence in program planning and execution for your organization.
Certification
ProChain has spent 25 years developing its rigorous Expert and Professional certification programs to ensure that you can sustain long-term implementation results with excellent planning and execution.
Certification candidates undergo a rigorous combination of classroom and hands-on training, on real projects, under the direct supervision of experienced ProChain Senior Consultants. Upon completion of the certification process, the candidates are capable of leading an internal implementation of the ProChain System without additional outside assistance.
Change Management
Significant change initiatives are usually high risk. There are many ways they can run into trouble, including failure to involve senior management, poor communication, inadequate planning, improper implementation tools, and inability to make key course corrections.
The ProChain System, based on the five-step “Agree, Align, Advance, Assess, Adapt” framework, helps ensure that all these areas are coordinated and monitored to give you the maximum chance of success. In fact, we’re so confident in our approach, we offer risk-free implementations. Contact us now to get started!
