We take a holistic, multi-generational approach to family business advisory, ensuring that the interests of all stakeholders—owners, family members, and professional managers—are aligned.
Project Management Diagnostic & Gap Analysis
In the initial phase, we conduct a comprehensive assessment of the organization’s project management landscape to identify strengths, weaknesses, and improvement opportunities:
- Evaluation of Existing Project Management Frameworks: Analyzing governance structures, methodologies, and stakeholder engagement models to assess their effectiveness.
- Project Portfolio Performance Review: Examining historical project outcomes, risk management practices, budget adherence, and delivery timelines to identify recurring challenges.
- Benchmarking Against Global Standards: Comparing the organization’s project management maturity with globally recognized frameworks such as PMI’s PMBOK, PRINCE2, and Agile best practices.
Maturity Model Scoring & Prioritization
Using the MindEx Project Maturity Model (MPMM), we assess organizations across five maturity levels:
- Level 1: Ad Hoc: Project execution is informal and unstructured.
- Level 2: Defined: Basic project management frameworks exist but lack consistency.
- Level 3: Standardized: Projects follow structured methodologies and governance models.
- Level 4: Optimized: Project management is data-driven, risk-aware, and efficient.
- Level 5: Strategic: Project management is a competitive advantage, fully aligned with business strategy.
Maturity Model Scoring & Prioritization
Utilizing the MindEx Project Maturity Model, we evaluate project management maturity across five distinct levels:
- Level 1 – Ad Hoc: Projects are executed in an unstructured, reactive manner with minimal standardization.
- Level 2 – Defined: Basic project management processes exist but are inconsistently applied across initiatives.
- Level 3 – Standardized: Formal methodologies and governance structures are established and followed across projects.
- Level 4 – Optimized: Data-driven decision-making, risk mitigation, and continuous improvement practices are embedded.
- Level 5 – Strategic: Project management is fully aligned with corporate strategy, serving as a competitive differentiator.
Based on the assessment, we prioritize key improvement areas to enhance project execution capabilities.
Continuous Monitoring & Performance Optimization
Long-term success requires ongoing assessment and optimization to sustain improvements:
- Annual Project Management Maturity Reassessments: Measuring progress against the maturity model and refining strategies accordingly.
- Integration with Portfolio & Resource Management Systems: Ensuring alignment between project execution, corporate strategy, and resource allocation for maximum impact.
Through our Project Management Maturity Assessment, organizations can transform their project execution capabilities—driving greater efficiency, minimizing risks, and delivering superior business outcomes.
