PPM EXPRESS
Portfolio management is a core strategic business process of actively identifying, evaluating and prioritizing projects, resources and budgets within their global or regional business pipeline. This management action allows for improved harmonization and assessment of competing investments across the organization and to make sound decisions. Once the content of the portfolio is agreed upon, it is key to constantly scrutinize the evolution of individual projects in terms of quality, cost and schedule.

Procept can assist in developing a defined process for project portfolio management. The process consists of identifying potential portfolio “components” (which may be business cases, projects, programs, sub-portfolios), categorizing (e.g. growth, compliance, risk reduction, efficiency, health and safety, sustainment), evaluating (using financial and subjective scoring methods), prioritizing, and evaluating results through the creation of various scenarios to decide which is the most optimal portfolio (for a certain year, business, budget, etc).

This can be four to five days of work, including an intensive facilitation sessions with your stakeholders, to develop standardized project portfolio management processes.

Priced at $15,000.

PROJECT SCHEDULE EXPRESS
A good project schedule starts with a good Work Breakdown Structure. At the lowest level of the Work Breakdown Structure are work packages. The durations and dependencies are determined; then a schedule is built using a facilitated workshop with principal project team members and stakeholders. The strength of this process lies in a reduced likelihood of missing project scope, an improved and realistic schedule, and a greater understanding of the project work among the participants. Each facilitation session is conducted by two consultants, and the results are provided the following day as a Microsoft Project file. One preparation day followed by one facilitated session of 5 to 7 hours for simpler projects, priced at $5,000.

Longer assignments can include a risk identification and response plan, delivered as a risk register. Longer assignments and larger projects are priced on an individual basis.

Procept consultants are also available on an hourly basis to act as facilitators for your planning session, for requirements, scope (WBS), schedule, or for risk identification and response.
