Consulting and Process Engineering Services

Management Technologies provides consulting services in business case analysis, project planning and scheduling, earned value management, and use of wInsightŪ. These services may be used to assist organizations in applying these tools and techniques to a specific project, to augment existing staff during high demand activities, or to help define organizational policies and procedures

Some of our more recent consulting efforts are described below:

Earned Value Management Process Engineering: Management Technologies is currently assisting a large IT services organization implement earned value management to meet EVM requirements now appearing in US Government RFPs. By using their existing projects and project management processes, we are introducing EVM thorough a step-by-step process. Our EzEVMExcel templates provide quick capture of the project baseline, and helps their staff become familiar with EVM concepts and analysis tools. This process will be complete with the publication of their EVMS System Description, directives, processes, and desk instructions.

Earned Value Management Process Engineering: Management Technologies was selected by a state energy agency to implement a simplified EVMS on their IT projects. By using our EzEVMExcel templates we were able to implement a solution in three days on five pilot projects. Currently the template is being expanded to support a PMO level EVM summary, and we will be assisting in authoring policies and procedures.

Earned Value Management System Gap Analysis: A US Defense subcontractor was required to meet the ANSI 748 EVMS requirements if they were to be selected as a subcontractor for a major US Navy program. We were contracted to perform an EVMS "gap" analysis to determine where they failed to meet the ANSI 748 criteria.  Our product included a report and action plan. They were subsequently awarded the subcontract they sought.

Earned Value Management Process Engineering: Management Technologies was selected to help a major US Government agency's IT organization implement earned value management to meet OMB expectations. After conducting three Earned Value Experience™ workshops we assisted implementing EVM on three pilot projects. These projects helped educate the workforce on the application of EVM on their projects and defined how EVM would be implemented on the remaining projects.

Earned Value Management Process Engineering: Management Technologies helped a DoD Contractor's IT organization implement an earned value management system to meet internal reporting requirements. This non-ANSI 748 EzEVMExcel template solution integrated their MS Project schedule and internal financial reporting. Results included project performance charts and forecasts used in monthly project reporting. We also authored their EVMS implementing policies, directives, and procedures.

Creating a Program Management Office: Management Technologies was used by a public agency to implement a PMO. Previously their project managers were also performing as project engineers, and not doing either task well. They sought a more formalized and consistent project management methodology. Our report recommended a PMO structure and role study.  After implementing our suggested organizational changes we remained involved to create their project management processes and produced their Project Management Manual.  They attribute the PMO to their ability to increase their project workload by 50% without adding additional staff, while improving their project performance.
