In the last few years, the business community has focused on the importance of project management within an organization. This urgency stems from multiple reports showing that projects have an unlikely chance of succeeding on time, on budget and within scope. According to the Standish Group's Chaos Report, only 28% of all projects succeed. Yet since the Chaos Report began conducting this study in 1995, projects have only seen a 12% improvement.

Peritius stands out as a clear leader due to our track record and consistency. Since 1989, Peritius has successfully completed 96% of our clients' projects. Whether our client has a critical project that demands on-time, in-budget, on-scope results or a strategic initiative that is a key component for the overall direction of the company,

Peritius has strategy delivery executives that can help. We specialize in the successful delivery of high-visibility, high-risk complex solutions. We focus on the people, processes, methods, and tools needed to achieve successful project results.

Peritius employs only senior executive level project directors that are capable of effectively managing every aspect of a complex initiative—whether a business initiative or an IT initiative, an ERP, business process reengineering, infrastructure, development or implementation process. Our project managers leverage their years of experience and deep business knowledge to successfully manage issues and deliver projects. Because we are independent, we concentrate on delivering the expected value for the organization.

Program management is the process of managing multiple, ongoing inter-dependent projects.

As initiatives become more complex, there is a higher risk of failure. Peritius understands the importance of successfully completing initiatives that are critical to the continued success of the business, whether they are strategic for future growth or consolidation efforts to help standardize and eliminate redundancy. These efforts are always highly visible and have little tolerance for failure. Peritius has consistently proven how to effectively run these complex programs on behalf of our client sponsors. We succeed when our clients succeed.

Most programs today have multiple resource types that are part of the program team. This could include internal resources, vendors, consultants and independent contractors. In most program initiatives, managing the dynamics of a diverse team adds the greatest complexity. Peritius' model is designed to help bring the team together in a cohesive manner. By maintaining our independence, we can help to focus team members on the objectives of the client rather than their own individual objectives.

While organizations attempt to focus on making the most of delivering initiatives successfully, how do you know if the initiatives are the proper ones to drive your business' objectives?

Portfolio management has become a greater focus for most organizations. Once an organization has created its strategic business plan, many organizations create a list of initiatives that could help the organization meet their strategic objectives.

A strong portfolio management process can help an organization prioritize its initiatives so that the most appropriate efforts to help meet business objectives can be funded. A portfolio management effort will also help organizations to assess if business benefits were recognized once the effort has been implemented for a period of time.

Peritius has developed a template for creating the proper portfolio management process for an organization. Creating the proper portfolio management process can be challenging, and Peritius works with our clients to ensure that the right governance structure is in place to support this effort.

Over 25% of project expenditures are wasted on poorly run initiatives. In a competitive economy where all project funds are needed to stay ahead of the competition, companies can't afford this type of waste.

Peritius does not believe that organizations should continue to throw good money after bad. We have a track record of turning around troubled projects/programs and getting them back on track. Peritius has a fine-tuned process in which we quickly assess a troubled initiative and define a short-term plan to get the project back on track.
When an initiative is failing or even showing the initial signs of failure, Peritius has the experience to turn these efforts around.

For an initiative that can't afford to be delayed, go over budget, or deliver improper scope Peritius has the experience to get it back on track.
