Project Management
An experienced project management resource is
required for complex projects such as implementing a new or
customizing an existing business system. Our consultants can plan and manage
projects of any size for your institution.
Our engagements have
included project planning services, on-site project management
of integrated administrative information systems implementations
as well as student, human resources, financial, and
alumnae/development systems implementations. We can also help
you develop specific functionality and customization of your
current administrative system.
Software Procurement
We can assist our clients in pre-project
activities, including identifying and analyzing requirements for
their integrated
administrative information system, developing the Requests for
Proposals (RPFs) and system selection and evaluation
criteria, coordinating vendor evaluations and software
selection contract negotiation, and making the recommendations to management.
Other examples of project management experience include the selection and implementation of institutional
space and event management software, including
data conversion, rollout of desktop client software, and
technical liaison with vendors.
Software Implementation
Our senior consultants have served as project directors for
many administrative information systems implementations. They
can offer help mobilizing and scheduling the project,
communicating project milestones and progress, managing budgets
and vendor contracts, tracking project progress, supervising
technical staff, and reporting
the project status to management.
Project Management Training
As part of our project management services, we can also
perform an operational review and analysis of your current
processes and system, develop a strategic implementation
approach, and identify critical paths and major milestones. We
offer review and assessment of your operational plan,
provide on-going monitoring and advice, and offer training in
project management, change management, process improvement and
team building techniques.
