Project Definition

Establishing an accurate understanding of current program management and project management capabilities is an essential step in the planning and execution of comprehensive improvement efforts. Peak Performance Technologies’ consultants partner with organizational leaders to assess organizational and individual competencies, define improvement strategies, identify targets for improvement efforts, and chart an improvement roadmap.  Without the appropriate level of program management capabilities, there is an inherently higher risk of cost and time overruns - as well as the failure to achieve quality objectives. This limits the potential to effectively realize the benefits targeted in the program's business case.
