Why PM3

PM3 adds value
PM3 provides an outcome-driven view of portfolio, programme and project management, keeping the management team focused on what really matters: delivering and maximizing the business value of all project investments. This stretches from

  • outcome-driven valuations of the projects portfolio (so you develop the projects that are likely to deliver the biggest bang for your buck), through
  • top-down, outcome-driven planning (GDPM automation), through
  • he ability to ‘promote’ key milestones/issues/risks up from projects to the programme level (where they have greater visibility), through
  • ongoing appraisals (at Quality Gates) of the value actually likely to be realized, through
  • objective reporting of projects’ delivery statuses (so catching ‘at risk’ projects as early as possible), through
  • post-implementation measurement of the value actually realized

PM3 reduces costs
Independent research indicates that a tool like PM3 can easily pay for itself in a matter of months principally as a result of

  • reductions in Project Manger workloads
  • simplification (and sometimes eradication) of the PMO task, as reports are collated and distributed automatically
  • avoided computing costs (from supplying project staff with laptops/software to run project management tools)
  • reduction in wasted project costs (by early identification and potential rescoping or cancellation of failing projects)

PM3 is fast and easy to deploy
