Health checks and QA
KEEPING YOUR PROJECT ON TRACK.
Successful project delivery is critical to the wellbeing of any business. Project success is achieved through confidence in the health of a project and being able to anticipate potential issues early enough to act. Through our project review services, we provide organisations with a view of project and program health, as well as providing an ongoing control mechanism that can be applied at periodic intervals throughout the project lifecycle.
Our health checks are conducted by senior program practitioners with decades of hands-on experience. Our reviews also utilise project diagnostic tools that provide visual and easily assimilated output. Using these tools, improvement areas that will yield the greatest benefit are identified and actions can then be taken accordingly.
For optimal outcomes, reviews should be conducted at key milestones throughout the project life cycle.
Our services encompass:
Set up for success reviews – undertaken at the start of a project or program to help ensure it is initiated on a strong foundation.
Health checks – undertaken at key points during the program or project lifecycle.
Stage gate reviews – undertaken when a program or project seeks approval to proceed to the next stage.
Post-implementation reviews – undertaken after a program or project has delivered and focuses on capturing lessons learned.
Benefit realisation reviews – undertaken after a program or project has delivered and focusses on ensuring that the right approaches, roles and responsibilities are in place to proactively capture benefits.
CLIENT SPOTLIGHT
Project review and turn-around for major university
Mozaic was brought into this major Australian university to conduct a detailed QA review for a large (~$50M) student administration system implementation program that was well behind schedule, not delivering to scope and not effectively engaging stakeholders.
After the analysis, we made recommendations for changes to program management practices, governance, change management approach and team structure, all of which Mozaic helped the client implement to successfully get the project back on track and deliver expected outcomes.
